If you want censorship, set up shop in China

HTH
1) Yes it's global, is that news?

2) Censorship of porn is a fact of life, live with it. Offline porn is censored. so why not online porn? Are you saying CP shouldn't be censored online?

3) There's no way to stop bank robbers, so will they not bother to try?

4) Which will protect you.

5) See 4)

6) Yes we live in a world with controls. Welcome to the real world.

China remark is stupid.

I've lived with censorship in porn since before you had hairs around your balls. And made a lot of money in the business. It's something I've had to deal with and yet still profit. At the moment any kid can log onto Pornhub and watch things that are not suitable, that will not last for ever and don't kid yourself it will. Saying parents should protect their own children is stupid. Are they also expected to protect them from everything without the Governments implementing laws?

No law is 100%, but it's every Governments duty to do what they can. Live with it.

Because the last people anyone will take any real notice of, on this matter, is pornographers. Or any matter.
