I do think this standard applies to porn, and e.g. the .xxx TLD wouldn't be KYC. And probably wouldn't cause as big a dark web porn explosion.
For me porn is in a bit different category from guns and bombs, and from drugs too. Guns and bombs and some drugs kill. Porn probably borns if something.
- kelseyfrog 3y agoIt kinda sounds like our differing perspectives are the biggest factors on the social effects of porn and subsequently our openness to compensating actions. Does that sound suspicious at all?
- jampekka 3y agoWe probably differ in assessment of social effects of porn. I don't find it very harmful at all. In the balance porn may be even beneficial if it helps to remove harmful taboos and hangups about sexuality. In fact I find it totally absurd how depictions of horrible violence is quite OK for people who are shocked about genitals. Or profanity. And I find that advertising in general, especially for children but also for adults, is more harmful than even the violence. We probably disagree. I think my opinions are quite well founded, but so do probably you.
