Suffocating red tape...

British labour MP calls for a ban on breath play content in porn


Link Here18th June 2025
Full story: UK Government Pornography Review...A review of censorship law
A British Labour MP, Jessica Asato, has announced that she plans to ask Parliament to outlaw online adult content featuring the act of choking. Asato called choking content insidious and claimed that it has led to a huge increase in the practice in everyday relationships. Asato claimed in an interview with GB News that this is also leading to things like spitting, slapping -- all things that actually many women say they don't want, they don't consent to -- so technically, that's criminal.

Asato explained that, should she be successful in passing the proposed law, the British media censor Ofcom would be empowered to levy really big fines or initiate criminal proceedings against sites or platforms that make choking content available online.

Inevitably the moralist Asato doesn't consider her censorship proposal as censorship. Asked whether she opposes nonviolent consensual pornography, Asato responded:

I don't have any problem with that at all, and I'm certainly not here to be a moralist ...BUT... What I'm really concerned about is the damaging impact it has in the real lives of women and girls in relationships.

Earlier this year, a pornography review initiated under the conservative government of former U.K. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak recommended banning any adult content deemed degrading, violent and misogynistic -- including material showing choking, eaggeratingly tagged as non-fatal strangulation.

 

 

Attacking more countries...

Israel is the latest country to claim world internet censorship powers


Link Here18th June 2025
A new set of censorship rules unilaterally issued by the Israel Defense Forces is raising alarms over media freedom and public transparency.

Brigadier-General Kobi Mandelblit, Israel's chief censor, has issued a mandate requiring prior approval for any reporting on where missiles or drones have struck, no matter the platform or location of publication.

According to the statement, any person who prints or publishes printed matter or a publication regarding the location of a strike or hit by enemy war materiel, including missiles of any kind and UAVs, in the media or online (including social media, blogs and chats, etc.) must now submit that material to the military censor for approval before it is released.

This directive applies to both domestic and international reporting, online and offline.

 

 

Criminalising everyone...

Labour MPs push for nasty law amendments to criminalise any Brits vaguely connected to sex work


Link Here18th June 2025
Labour MPs are attempting to launch the most draconian clampdown on sex work devised in Britain in decades, campaigners have warned.

Sex workers told Novara Media that the measures proposed by Labour MP Tonia Antoniazzi could unjustly criminalise their friends and family and put prostitutes' safety at risk.

Antoniazzi, the Labour MP for Gower, has put forward two amendments to the Crime and Policing Bill, due to be discussed in parliament on Wednesday.

Clause NC2 seeks to make it a criminal offence to enable or profit from the prostitution of another person, including by operating a website hosting adverts for prostitution. This clause states it would be against the law for individuals to assist, facilitate, control, or incite someone to engage in sexual activity for money or another form of benefit anywhere in the world.

Clause NC3 seeks to outlaw buying, offering, or promising payment in exchange for sexual activity.

The English Collective of Prostitutes (ECP), a campaign group that supports sex workers, claims the clauses could criminalise anyone who associates with a sex worker -- workmates, drivers, web-makers, receptionists, friends, clients. The clauses would also criminalise the advertising sites which sex workers depend on to work independently and in greater safety.

The amendments to the legislation have gained the support of cross-party MPs, with Labour's Diane Abbott and Sarah Champion, as well as former Labour MP Rosie Duffield (now an independent) among them.

Niki Adams, a spokesperson for the ECP, said the amendments would force us [sex workers] to work in isolation and put us at much greater risk of attack and of violence.

Although it is not illegal for individuals to buy or sell sex from each other in England, Scotland and Wales, many activities associated with prostitution are unlawful, including a sex worker teaming up with another person or a group to protect their safety while working.

Adams warned that the legislation could lead to friends and family being targeted, as the amendments do not specify that the individual must profit from their sex work.

Link Here18th June 2025
First Time Video is pay site specialising in first time in porn sets. there are two websites, ftvgirls.com and ftvmilfs.com.

See article from ofcom.org.uk

In June 2025 Ofcom announced an investigation of the website saying:

We have launched an investigation into whether First Time Videos LLC, which provides the pornographic services FTVGirls.com and FTVMilfs.com, has highly effective age assurance in place to protect children from pornography.

We will now gather and analyse evidence to determine whether any contraventions have occurred. If our assessment indicates compliance failures, we will issue provisional notices of contravention to providers, who can then make representations on our findings, before we make our final decisions.

We will provide updates on these investigations as soon as possible.

 

 

Online safety precautions...

VPN usage soars in France so that porn viewers can avoid the dangers of handing over personal identity data to unsafe age verification systems


Link Here18th June 2025
France has experienced a surge in virtual private network (VPN) signups after Aylo, which operates Pornhub, Redtube and YouPorn, cut off French access to those sites in the country in the wake of new age verification regulations.

ProtonVPN reported a 1,000% rise in sign-up requests within 30 minutes of Aylo's decision to restrict access to its sites, while NordVPN reported a 170% jump in usage. Overall VPN demand in France jumped 334% compared to the previous month.

Similar spikes in VPN use occurred in Utah, Texas, and Florida when Aylo blocked access to Pornhub in those U.S. states after each passed similar AV legislation.

Adult platforms operating in France had a deadline of June 7 to comply with the country's new AV rules under the Security and Regulation of the Digital Space (SREN) law.

From IMDb:

The name 'Allcock' was questioned by the 1950s' censors, especially how much the characters constantly say it with such precision on the cock part, but they eventually allowed it to pass.

Promotional Material

A criminal mastermind (Jack Taylor, Female Vampire) deploys poison gas and a beautiful whip-wielding assassin (Beni Cardoso) in a plot to steal government secrets in The Vengeance of Dr Mabuse (Dr. M schlägt zu). But his elaborate schemes risk unraveling when a small-town inspector (Fred Williams) stumbles into the scene. An unauthorized entry in the Dr. Mabuse cycle, the film makes no reference to Norbert Jacquess clairvoyant criminal (the M-word is carefully avoided). Instead, director Jess Franco used the project as a chance to revisit his own sci-fi thrillers (The Awful Dr. Orlof, The Diabolical Dr. Z). Fold in a disfigured henchman (Rocha), a striptease dancer (Ewa Strömberg, Vampyros Lesbos), and wrap it all in a feverish jazz score, and the result is a spicy cinematic melange that could only have been concocted in the demented mind of Jess Franco.

He is rescued by foxy business major Melissa Reeves (Kristi Ducati, Intimate Obsession), who convinces Jack to let her run the business for a cut of the action.
