The U.K.’s new digital economy bill is a threat not only to citizen’s privacy, but also to their freedom to watch online porn. According to the Guardian, the bill would force internet service providers to censor sites hosting content that doesn’t meet the standards of the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC). This means that anything considered “non-conventional”—i.e., quite a lot of material, kinky and otherwise—could be prohibited.
The bill can ban any “obscene” material, such as “humiliation or abuse,” sexual portrayals of “lack of consent,” or anything classified as “adult-only.” And because it can put a ban on “non-conventional” sex, sex acts like “consensual spanking, whipping or other BDSM activities would be censored, as would fisting and urination, female ejaculation, or menstruation,” reports the Guardian. Thankfully, because there are so many adult sites, the ban would be difficult if not impossible to enforce. As a spokeswoman for MindGeek told the Guardian, “many of the sexual activities prohibited from R18 are normalised and accepted aspects of healthy sexuality, and are proudly celebrated by the feminist, queer, and ethical porn movements internationally.” It’s frightening to think that those are the sites that would be most at risk.
