Hang on, just go back a bit there... What's this about porn? Have I missed summat? I thought only paedophilia, necrophilia, bestiality and violent porn were illegal. If not, then I'm well and truly fucked...
Sorry, this is the whole issue with the law, nobody really knows what's illegal or not - the police have tried to prosecute people for porn where someone was wearing a gas mask... not to mention the bloke in a tiger suit in a joke video that was attempted to be prosecuted as a "realistic depiction" of bestiality!
In April this year, as well as necro/beastie, they added a clause that penetration with penis or an object without a person's consent in a video is also prosecutable. You'd think this was supposedly to stop nasty real rape videos, but imagine a guy who is tied and gagged and his domme his shoving a dildo up his bum - or similar dungeone style scenario involving woman/man etc - that could easily be interpreted as rape under this daft and restrictive law as the ballgag means the person is not able to give consent, which could be interpreted by overzealous idiots as illegal rape. There's nothing in the wording that says consensual BDSM is excluded. Like many of these new laws, this seemed to go through without parliamentary debate or much fanfare. As Myles Jackman the obscenity lawyer states, porn is the canary in the coalmine of free speech. It's the first step towards internet control, first they tell us what it's acceptable to watch - the next step is to try blocking overseas websites they don't like, without a fucking care for net neutrality or free speech or freedom of expression, and accepting that some will bypass this with proxies/VPNs etc - but as long as they pen the majority of the heaving masses that will satisfy them for the time being I expect.
It's all very chilling and most people don't even seem to know it's happening. What usually happens in the case of the porn laws is some young lad gets in a fight and gets arrested. He happens to have a video of some beastie stuff a mate has sent him for a laugh on his phone. Police go through his phone, see said video, charge him with extreme porn, lad pleads guilty out of shame, is forced to sign sex offenders register and now has a criminal record for something he didn't even realise was illegal.
Sort of back on topic, this is along similar themes of control and oppression. I recently read Europe may be blocking Cameron's plan to make adult filters for ISPs the compulsory default - maybe there is something in European legislation that makes this NPS bill illegal (no wonder the Tories want out of European Human Rights Legislation!). what a tangled web they weave.
you... We could just grab some chemists off here for the lifelong voyage and just whip up our own drugs... I'm in....
That doesnt give anyone much time. This is looking very grim.
