Question for the Brits

[lixx]

He's not banning it outright.

He's simply saying that ISPs have to enable shields for customers to surf porn.

I'm sceptical of that though, since who is to say they won't store records of who sees what? ISPs already do that, but hmm.. even still, he won't secure an outright ban. if so, we're not a free country anymore lol.

i could join up and be their first TS neo nazi I would look hot in my WW2 Coat and hat wahhhhhhhhh

Nahh seriously budapest is a porn central place .. but so is some of spain .. france and italy ..

Thing with Hungary is yes it is abit iffy with some groups .. but then it comes to discretion i guess , if i lived in budapest i wouldnt be out as a TS ... and i wouldnt be escorting etc. i would just be doing shooting for companies , mostly females etc . and come back to UK to escort for a week each month

I'd say we (the UK) is far more tolerant than Eastern Europe. We don't have gangs stabbing blacks and Asians and then being let off by the police lol..

No there is more than that ,, he is actually imposing outright bans on certain sex words, websites etc that are deemed obscene .. anything that has simulated Rape is going to be made illegal to own/produce/posses in the uk ... So some sites like kink run could well find themselves blocked in the uk ... the problem is who is going to decide on these words, terms, websites that get added to the block list ,, is there going to be a way of contesting them etc ?

and you can stand to live in a place that murders gypsies?

Well i live in a country that has no issues in helping the murder of thousands of innocent people globally with sales of weapons to various groups around the world

Prospero every country commits bad attrocities so i dont think it really matters where you live anymore on that front .

For me i would look at this as purely a commercial work aspect move . I couldnt actually care less for the place of budapest itself .. but if its a viable profiitble place to work out of or evening just setting up the business to there etc and running it remotely etc ..

Hello,

In true British style, we have talked and moaned about it but where my fellow citizens almost always fail is in getting off their asses and actually doing something constructive with the the democratic process they created!

When it comes to censorship, the greatest enemy is not the government, not highly motivated lobbying groups and not corporate power but the apathy of the people.

So, if you are British, walk away from Eastenders, the X Factor, Facebook Angry Birds or whatever distracts you from your role in a democratic state and sign this bloody petition please!!!

We Americans are the same way. We complain about something yet do nothing to change it. Hopefully your country persons do differently.

Hi Ben,

We Americans are the same way. We complain about something yet do nothing to change it. Hopefully your country persons do differently.

With the official petition to stand against it currently standing at 35,000 signatures in an adult population of 51,000,000, it appears that complacency towards the privilege of a democratic process is as pervasive in the UK as it is in the US.

Whilst our most recent history has shown that in China, South Africa and Burma, the value of having the personal right to challenge government policy meant being willing to make a stand before a tank or be the subject to years of political incarceration.
But in the western world, what other people are willing to die for, we allow to be eroded one small chunck at a time asa losing one more civil liberty is easier to bear than having to suffer the embarrassment of being labeled by acceptable society as an "activist".

Out of all of the UK porn industry, only one of the most successful adult industry entrepreneurs (but retired), Tanya Tate (British pornstar but lives in the US) and I have proved willing to make a public stand against the political attack on the UK adult industry.
With only three people in the whole of the British porn industry (with me being the only one with an active incorporated company running out of the UK) is it any wonder that only 35,000 in an adult population of 51 million have shown willing to stand up and be counted?

Stay posted as this story is far from over...
