@neil Sausage or not LLMs go brrrrrr

@neil No one disagree about banning this tho there seems to be a worry over this leading to a slippery slope towards banning stuff that should not be banned .

Some think this could lead to a ban on LGBTQ content (that seems very unlikely) https://www.reddit.com/r/europe/comments/1oo0ik5/pornography_depicting_strangulation_to_become/nn1apfx/

This may be more to do with the huge distrust towards Labour as a whole.

@neil I also read this, and the article says it is technically illegal already. I wonder what enforcement will actually look like though

@neil honestly, I'm generally opposed to government overreach, particularly when it comes to sexuality, but I'm struggling to be too upset by this one. It's insanely dangerous.

@neil surprised it doesn’t cover drawn/artistic representation too. That seems very fashionable for this shit-shower of a government.

@neil I find the headline interesting. "Online", but possession "Offline" would also be an offence.

More a comment on how pervade "online" is, and how a mass media org couldn't conceive of offline than anything

@neil If this will make it (rightly) illegal to view in the UK, it seems a bit of a backfire to have just made the majority of UK porn viewers pretend they are in another country using a VPN.

@neil I assume real choking and simulated choking during the "act" between two adults isn't illegal?

@neil Make them stop attacking porn.

@neil
I think something similar in regards to choking/breath-play was attempted in Britain before - maybe 12 years ago.

Along with, for some non-obvious reason, depictions of female ejaculation / "squirting".

@neil Well then they need to pass something like: Make sure that there is no dangerous levels of chocking when filming. But what is depicted in the video should be under control of government.

What's next, ban Michael Bay movies because it depicts illegal car chases and illegal gun violence?

That law affected law produced in the UK and I might be wrong but I don't remember it being repealed. I think UK porn producers still can't show facesitting. This proposed law affects porn from anywhere being viewed in the UK.

@neil @girlonthenet I remember that piece.

This is a really interesting bit of legislation that requires a level of nuance beyond what the British media can muster. It's definitely overdone and the normalisation of it is a problem but I don't know that this is the right way to get there from here. I also instinctively don't like the government weighing in on porn and what consenting adults get up to but I also think the safety argument is valid and I don't have a better idea. Hm.
