Following our recent post on the Government’s ridiculous Age Verification policy for adult websites and despite clearly expressed and comprehensive objections from legal experts and adult content producers and security experts, they are ploughing ahead regardless.
Unfortunately the situation has now got even worse as the Government wants the British Board of Film Classification to be in charge of implementing this “Think of the Children!” policy and the BBFC Guidelines will result in the blocking of any websites which feature “unconventional” sex acts
This can even include porn featuring Ball Gags because, even though they are entirely legal to use, the BBFC think that, with one in, you can’t withdraw consent, so they forbid them. This is despite the fact that, instead of a Safe Word, you can use a Safe Sign such as finger signals or dropping an object (a ball, a bunch of keys, a bell, anything that makes an obvious noise etc).

The Government want ISPs to block websites which show anything that the BBFC wouldn’t class even as R18 which would meant that porn which shows acts that are legal for consenting adults to participate in, would not be visible in this country.
We have already written to our MP objecting to State Censorship of adult material and protesting this nonsensical Nanny State Law and we urge you all to urgently contact your MPs to tell them at you do not want to see this unprecedented level of State Censorship introduced in this country.
