Including possession? What will they do, demand all users in the UK to unlock their devices for regular content scans?

Someone check in with any step relatives he has, this smacks of projection

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

Sounds like someone got caught watching step sister porn, and is now throwing the weight of government behind his shame.

Labour not burning piles of political capital on ridiculous pet issues challenge (impossible, any%):

Next you're going to tell me that she wasn't actually the babysitter!

Is porn just a giant lie!? If porn isn't real what is!?

This is nothing to do with actual child abuse or real incest porn, and they know it, this is the next step in their war against VPNs and those circumventing their internet "age" real ID checks.

This will give them what will be an ever expanding big stick to clamp down on anybody they cant force to use their ID checking system, anybody using smaller providers (VPN or Porn) to avoid the checks will be suspect of criminal activity and will have equipment seized.

The first step was to push the larger providers to comply or get out, the next step is to start to tackle the smaller providers and consumers who at least want to try to stay legal.

Its never about 100% success with clamping down, its about getting the majority to comply and having useful tools to deal with those who do not, especially as they now stand out far more.

Starmer is a knobhead shooting the Labour party and voters in both feet. He's currently attempting to mimick Reform and Greens to win back votes.

Abhorrent ? I would at best call it "annoying" because all porn sites are flooded with it, but abhorrent ? It's legal to actually do in most countries, INCLUDING the UK 😅

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

Its like all the porn, sometimes the star is who ya want to see who is even following the plot or title?

Step incest is a non-thing. It cannot be incest if you're not closely related. You could call it sleeping with someone who lives in the same house perhaps, or screwing people who used to be strangers, or boinking those who are related to someone that married into your family, but that's all.

Actors. They’re paid actors. It’s fake.

But movies full of violence, gore and high bodycount are just fine.

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

Next you're going to tell me the dude with the massive cock isn't actually a handyman!? He's an actor!?

When banging your step mum is legal but watching a fictional video of someone else banging their step mum is illegal 🤪 welcome to the UK ladies and gentlemen.

[–] teyrnon@sh.itjust.works 93 points 1 week ago (5 children)

It's legal if you submit your ID to the government and have it recorded in the masterbaitorbase that you whacked off to that video. What, don't make it weird... /s

Banning porn where the actors pretend that what they're doing is almost illegal is wild. What's next, prison time if they say that one of the participants is just over the age of consent?

[–] Wrufieotnak@feddit.org 131 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (4 children)

Nah, I want to know when they finally ban the really vile stuff. You know, all those murders on the screen in, oh I don't know, 70% of all fictional works?

That they seriously consider step porn as worse than murder shows that it is all about control and not about morals.

I don't really get this. If the characters in the production are adults and not blood related how is it different than roommate porn?
