The Republican governor of Utah has signed silly legislation requiring all cellphones and tablets sold in the conservative state to be sold with software that automatically blocks pornography. Governor Spencer Cox claims the measure would send an
important message about preventing children from accessing explicit online content. In fact the legislation is mere virtue signalling and makes no meaningful proposals how its requirements can be implemented in practice. So there is a get out
clause that says no immediate steps toward implementation will be made unless five other states enact similar laws, a provision introduced to address concerns that it would be difficult to implement. The American Civil Liberties Union of Utah said
the constitutionality of the bill was not adequately considered and that it will likely be argued in court. |

The miserable Thai Government, through the acting Minister of Digital Economy and Society, has confirmed that popular adult website Pornhub will stay blocked in Thailand, giving the reason that the website allegedly encourages poor moral standpoints and
can affect youth in a negative manner, Itthipol Khunplume, the current Minister of Culture (who was previously the Mayor of Pattaya, which allegedly has many adult entertainment-oriented businesses), made the statement to the Associated Thai press.
This decision also has banned hundreds of other prominent adult websites which, according to the Thai Government, are obscene and conflict with good morals for upstanding citizens. |

Vinegar Syndrome is set to release its first hardcore 4K Blu-ray, Sex World

SexWorld is a 1978 USA adult Sci-Fi film by Anthony Spinelli Starring Lesllie Bovee, Kent Hall and Kay Parker
 Taking off on WESTWORLD, a bus load of people going to
a resort that helps them solve their sexual hang-ups. Everyone and everything is monitored by a huge computer run by a gang of white-coated technicians, which deduces their deepest sexual fantasies - whether or not they are aware of them. The clients are
paired off with each other for optimum effect. A bigot, for example, is given a beautiful black woman to make love to, and a frigid housewife is linked up with a tender, soft-spoken lover.
Its good to see that some Golden Age porn
films are being released on 4K Blu-ray. Of course the older films have the advantage on 4K as they were shot on cinema quality film. thedigitalbits.com
comments about the quality: Sex World was shot on 35 mm photochemical film using Panavision cameras and lenses for an intended 1.85:1 theatrical aspect ratio. Vinegar Syndrome presents the film in native 4K,
scanned and restored from the original camera negative with HDR10 high dynamic range. Image quality is actually quite good. Not that we expect anything less from Vinegar Syndrome, but the fact that the original negative still exists in well-preserved
quality is remarkable in itself.

North Korea offers a series of supervisory options to punish children for watching porn

North Korea is stepping up punishments and intensifying a crackdown based on the anti-reactionary thought law adopted at the end of last year. The law seems to have strengthened the authorities' repression and control over citizens in the country.
According to a source in North Pyongan Province, a teenage boy who was caught watching pornography at his home in Sinuiju earlier this month has been exiled to the countryside along with his parents. The teenager was watching a pornographic
video late at night when his parents were not at home. He was caught during a surprise inspection by a task force created to monitor deviant behavior. Article 29 of the new law calls for sentences of five to 15 years of correctional labor
for consumption or possession of pornographic videos or books, photos or drawings that preach superstition. Individuals who produce, import or distribute such materials may get life sentences of correctional labor or even the death penalty, depending on
the quantity of the material. However, it appears that because the anti-reactionary thought law does not prescribe punishment regulations for adolescents, the punishment was set to deportation instead of correctional labor. Articles 34-38 of the
law stipulate fines of KPW 100,000 to 200,000 if a reactionary thought crime occurs due to the irresponsible education of children and orders the entire family to move to the countryside as punishment for the parents. |

A California state senator has introduced a bill that would make online sites liable for non-consensual sexual images and videos uploaded by users. Titled the Ending Online Sexual Trafficking and Exploitation Act , SB-435 sponsored by San Jose
Democrat Dave Cortese would allow alleged victims of non-consensual image sharing to sue sites and platforms that display the image, potentially collecting damages of $100,000 for every two hours the image remains online after a takedown notification.
The bill requires that sites must take down any such non-consensual image upon receipt of a takedown demand by a person seen in the image. |

Netflix's costume drama Bridgerton is at the center of a bit of a stir. The company's most recent hit, Bridgerton. Shonda Rhimes' first production became an instant phenomenon, particularly in its sex scenes which have been shared widely
across the internet. Media company Page Six has reported that the show's hacked sex scenes have racked up hundreds of thousands of views on adult video streaming platforms. Netflix has responded by issuing warnings about the illegal use of its
intellectual property, which has caused some clips to be deleted . But it has failed to make it happen in most cases. An anonymous source told Britain's The Sun that actress Phoebe Dynevor is upset with the circulation of the sexy footage. The Sun
added that the discomfort has spread through a good part of the cast, which could affect the recordings of the already confirmed second season. |
