Yes, extricating the porn from the internet.. Good fucking luck. Porn has DRIVEN the internet from the get go, not to mention technologies like VHS, DVD etc etc.
This bizarre fantasy of getting rid of it; honestly, it is like nothing so much as the anti choice fantasy that they're going to get rid of contraception. And make no mistake, that IS the fantasy. It is all about control.
...but the real agenda is so unpopular, so nuts, the "public" face has to be presented as "reasonable".
Every once in a while, someone in Iceland or the EU gets honest, usually someone who obviously understands little of how the internet actually works. Which brings me to my next question, this constant (and laughable) objection that "no one is suggesting banning it".. (I mean, except for the people who are.)
Say Ugandan lawmakers, as they have, propose horrible anti-gay laws, like this death penalty bullshit. Then someone says "Oh, no one really supports the death penalty for gay people". Yet then they turn around and say something like "I'm so glad Uganda is finally addressing the gay issue".. What sort of reasonable conclusion can be drawn about the principals in that exchange?
...About what they actually DO support, as well as their disingenuousness around pursuing their agenda?
