Offence ion Explorer Making pornographic material available to young person 5 Any organization that, for commercial purposes, makes available pornographic material on the Internet to a young person is guilty of an offence punishable on summary conviction and is liable, (a) for a first offence, to a fine of not more than $250,000; and (b) for a second or subsequent offence, to a fine of not more than $500,000. Clarification โ commercial purpose 6 For greater certainty, for the purpose of section 5, an organization that incidentally and not deliberately provides a service that is used to search for, transmit, download, store or access content on the Internet that is alleged to constitute pornographic material does not make available pornographic material on the Internet for commercial purposes. Defence - age verification or age estimation 7 (1) It is not a defence to a charge under section 5 that the organization believed that the young person referred to in that section was at least 18 years of age unless the organization implemented a prescribed age-verification or age-estimation method to limit access to the pornographic material made available for commercial purposes to individuals who are at least 18 years of age.
A lot of committee meetings emerging around Canadaโs S-209, an age verification bill that targets porn but could end up censoring wide swaths of the โnet

if youre canadian, its a very good idea to be contacting your representatives in govt about Bill S-209, and stressing that age verification policies do not protect people, and in fact make them less safe.

The only person who ever admitted they fucked up on that...was Ana.
No matter your stance on fictional age, or anthropomorphism, none of us who enjoy cartoon porn will be spared.
The normies have decided, and they've decided that regardless of fictional age or sentience level, all of it is equally "predatory."
Anthropomorphism should fall under the same scrutiny though, and will soon be here in the UK, as we quickly and quietly expand upon obscenity laws from the 50s.
Collective Shout were telling Ofcom to ban all hentai recently, because *all* women in hentai "look like children with big boobs."
It's astonishing to see how many people are going back to the "GoOnErS bAd" mentality even though the Collective Shout horseshit happened THIS YEAR

I'm not an animal. I know rape is wrong. People don't engage with these things bc they want to do it.

The fact is nobody with a half-working brain expects Bluesky or ANY social media platform to be able to properly litigate what counts as "consent" in fictional adult art. We straight up DO NOT TRUST YOU.
What moves has the bluesky moderation team made lately that engender any confidence? You are asking us, and yes I'm talking to you @why.bsky.team, to believe that you have any fucking clue how to do this. After your lovely team banned someone (and then unbanned them) over WEREWOLF PORN

"I just can't tell why people think the leftists and feminists loves censorship, I just..."
This kind of attitude combined with denying that policies or moderation practices are changing is concerning. This pfp blurring seems to be a new occurrence which directly contradicts what Why and other Bsky team members have been saying about their policies.

Iโve seen it happen to several 18+ creators today, even if their pfp was SFW & even when my settings allowed NSFW posts.
Looks like we really are gonna repeat 2018 Tumblr.
A human who still needs to be told how to spell non consensual maybe shouldn't be making moral judgments on fictional kinks shared between consenting adults at all.
If you find it so icky GIVE US A GODDAMN FLAG FOR SPECIFICALLY THAT.
"Getting extra mad" the gaslighting is fucking crazy.
post by jay.bsky.team: 1. Bluesky doesnโt downrank links 2. You can choose your own algorithm from among thousands 3. The whole app is open source This keeps it a free and open platform by design, leading to better click-throughs and traffic to your site. We ๐ the open web. post by leviathan3k.bsky.social: Yeah, our problem is with your moderation. post by why.bsky.team: Good news! We designed this whole thing with that in mind! Communities can split off and run moderation exactly the way they like and still interact fully with the rest of the network, our moderation should only impact the view of the network provided by our app
the official Bluesky team response to "our problem is with your moderation" is "if you don't like it, you can set up your own social media site [that we will still censor for Bluesky users via our App View moderation labelers] and fuck off"
