“The UK government wants technology companies to block explicit images on phones and computers by default to protect children, with adults having to verify their age to create and access such content,” the FT report said. “Ministers want the likes of Apple and Google to incorporate nudity-detection algorithms into their device operating systems to prevent users taking photos or sharing images of genitalia unless they are verified as adults.”

Literally. Why should a corporation control when you wank?

[-] habitualcynic@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

I get that, but I don’t even mean it in that sense. A corporation should not have any control over what I do whatsoever unless I’m their employee.

And even if you are an employee, only in work related stuff and during business hours, the rest, get out of my life.

The only time a corporation should care, is when they are in the business of selling sex toys. Then it should only be in so far that you enjoy using their products and want to use them more.

Corporations should be pro sex or absolutely ambivalent. There's zero reason for them to be against it.

I want them to ban porn so I feel dirty when I watch it.

I'm normally not one to kink shame, but I'm shaming you right now.
