Your child porn update for today:
cartoon child porn is just as illegal as actual child porn in Australia
This raises the question of who is being protected from whom and why. We’re talking about drawings of something here. I mean, if you’re just fantasising about kids, shouldn’t that then be a crime too?
most of the UK is censoring Wikipedia because it has a picture of a Scorpions album cover from 1976
This is especially stupid because the block is (of course) implemented in such a braindead way that besides from being easy to circumvent, the block causes the entire UK to appear to be from a couple of IP addresses on Wikipedia. This makes preventing vandalism rather difficult, so basically the UK has banned itself from editing Wikipedia (the addresses became autoblocked quite quickly because inevitably some vandals are from the UK). Good going, dumbasses.
This was amusing:
“When we asked the Internet Watch Foundation why they blocked Wikipedia and not Amazon [which also shows the album cover], apparently the decision was ‘pragmatic’, which we think means that Amazon had money and would sue them, whereas we’re an educational charity.”
Of course, Scorpions aren’t the only disgusting, inhuman, kiddie-molesting filth-troupe that should have its testicles pounded with a steak tenderizer.
First, this is the offending cover.
Nirvana liked ’em really young. Disgustin’.
You can do this if you’re Eric Clapton
(Blind Faith cover)
Even van Halen, the ultimate cookie cutter heavy band, is at it
If they start messing with Zeppelin it will truly be serious business
(Houses of the Holy cover)
Now, did seeing that make you want to go rape some children? Great, me too!
PS. Not really. You should probably get some help :( But the censors certainly have their work cut out for them. And if you’re wondering how good a job they did here… yeah.
