It is not that lawmakers censor nipples. it is google that is demonetizing them, even though it has the power (by virtue of controlling both sides of the ad market) to change those attitudes. Yet they have only been becoming more restrictive , not less
- olliej 5y agoIt is the politicians that pass laws to punitively punish companies like google is they ever allow any kid to see anything that isn’t ideologically pure.

The main culprit appears to be the prudishness and conservatism of large companies, somewhat big tech companies but especially credit card companies and payment processors.
