ok this ridiculous thing that happened. . (whether you happen to like or dislike this genre or not) So a japanese artist mangaka made a BL manga "Prince Noir" and the english translation company "Local Manga" cancelled it claiming that a character was "mentally shota" (you read that right. Not shota but they called it "mentally shota" whatever the fuck that means) because of "legal reasons" .... what?... lol just fucking just say you dont like the content and dont lie. And they brought up some obscure law from ages ago (that was about loli / shota) that was already shot down cause it was unconstitutional. ( Anime News Network lied about this too of course and only mentioned one person that got in to trouble a decade ago but didn't mention that the law has already been shot down and considered unconstitutional)
Second stupid story of the day : Female Japanese artist wins prize for artwork of a lewd maid, And feminists attack her instead of celebrating her success, because of course they do .
Half-KIA mentioned this topic several days ago, here's the /r/Steam link - https://archive.fo/0E1l8
I removed mentions about past UK legislature for porn including age verification enforced at the ISP level (any bets that it wouldn't be used for extended surveillance?) and forbidding acts like water sports, but they're along the same lines albeit not restricted to 2D.
The fact that Steam removes all their Adult games over this, but xHamster, PornHub and co are still freely accessible really says a lot. Does anyone actually believe that this is for the protection of children?
If these morons think there's a single child in Germany who can't find porn on the internet if they want to, they should be put on respirators because they're too retarded to be trusted to keep breathing on their own.
I think it's more about security, they know that children can find porn anywhere, but the are only liable for steam content. What does it matter to steam, if they find porn in xhamster?
The problem is, when some crazy Karen wants to sue steam because of porn on steam. I would never buy porn games on steam anyways, considering, that other can see what I got Oo
I was really talking in terms of german federal law, if Steam is liable under whatever law, then I guess they've got to do what they've got to do, it's just a pointless law to begin with, because porn will always be accessible.
