Quote from article.
The censorship regime has led to bizarre understandings between the producers and regulators, Barnett said. One is the “four-finger rule”, which limits the number of digits that can be inserted into an orifice for sexual stimulation.

No mention of feet then so its not all that bad. :D

I think now is the time to back up my porn drive, I have enough stashed to keep me fapping for years as I knew this day would come soon. ;)
 
it seems very anti woman do ban porn that shows a natural female reaction (squirt) you're effetivly telling women what what thier body does is wrong and should be ashamed of.

I'm assuming it's probably related to the urination part. Difficult to tell the two apart and removes the "but I wasn't urinating" defence.
 
Anyway, in 2016, it's hard to imagine a sex act that isn't considered conventional these days. Perhaps covering your cousin dressed as PVC Elvis in a collection of priceslessly rare postage stamps, before having badgers angrily stare at you suspended from the ceiling by baby walkers. Or something.

I mean, if LoveHoney can advertise on TV after 6pm, then we're already massive pervs, all of us.
 
Since it's now illegal to watch a video of a woman peeing, so the only way for me to get educated on how a woman pees is from an actual woman I know in real life?

Sounds like Teresa May is getting fed up of men watching videos of women peeing and wants to pee on some men herself.

I cant believe it. I can go and watch anything peeing, but I'm not allowed to watch another human, on video?? Seriously what is the world coming to? :D

Isn't there some sort of thorough psychological/psychosexual evaluation before people can become prime minister? Sounds like this poor woman is mental/not getting as much as she wants.

Be glad it's not Mommy Leadsom.
 
Convenient timing with the Joe Cox murder trial and news just coming out, I'm sure the argument will be that if authorities had access to the blokes internet viewing habits they would have prevented her murder...
 
The UK is seriously getting screwed over, the only thing that could have saved it was overriding sensible EU laws, so much for that now. Good luck guys! I'll hopefully be out of here before the **** truly hits the fan.

Most of the reason why I voted remain was because of the very strong evidence that left to its own devices the UK would become an authoritarian surveillance state with increasingly limited freedom and increasingly diminishing protection for everyone from everything. Which is what's happening.

Well, I'm old enough to probably be dead before it gets too bad. I'm glad I'm not a child nowadays and I'm glad I don't have children of my own.
 
As above. There has been so many things attempted to be done by the uk government which luckily has been stopped by the European Union thank god.

That safety net has gone. Look at workers rights and May wants to remove maternity leave and any right to industrial tribunal for employee working in small businesses.

We will be back in Victorian days before we know it.

Nah just ban the daily mail. Has been funny reading the mails write up of the case since all the things this guy thinks and believes has basically been their headlines for the last few years.
 
Is the four-finger rule written in a way that means it has to be from one hand? Does a thumb count as a finger for the purposes of the rule? What about if someone has lost a digit in an industrial accident - how much stump counts as finger?

Text me with the answers thanks

The last few years have also shown just how much influence the Lib Dems had, and how much they protected the people while in the coalition.

Such a shame the way they were treated after because they had to compromise on some of their promises.

So true, I really think it was unfair the flack the Lib Dems got after the coalition, we needed them more than people realised to put the brakes on the Tories.
 
All these people saying 'I'll just use a vpn', surely they have ways of getting into these anyway?

Not really. They could compel any British VPN to put in a backdoor or keep logs, but they really have no authority over offshore ones. If the government ordered my VPN provider to keep logs or put in a backdoor, their response would be two words with the second being "off".

And why would the government want to see your porn preferences anyway?

Well the fact that they are storing it all suggests they will, at some point, want to use that information. Either that or they are building up a database they have no intention of using, which will just sit there until someone hacks it and publishes it so the whole world can see what you've looked at. I don't like either of those possibilities so I need a VPN.

I don't know much about it all but surely there are markers which would show someone is routing through a VPN?

Yes, absolutely. But all you can see is that they are using a VPN, you can't tell where they are visiting or the content.

The worrying part is also that future governments will abuse the logs for other purposes and use them for prosecutions, etc, or just sell it to the corporate market.

This data could also be used to build up a picture of what you may think and your views about certain things which could become a nice db for them which could also be abused.

It doesn't even have to be a malicious government. A disgruntled employee or a hacker could expose the database.

Yup. Even legal browsing can paint a negative picture of an individual when placed in front of a jury. 10 hours a day of government-sanctioned missionary porn doesn't reflect well on one's character.
