#pornban

This is a “porn ban” for NH being heard on Wednesday in the NH judiciary committee.

It’s wild because it’s telling electronics manufacturers they have to install a filter on smart phones and tablets that would prevent minors from accessing obscene materials, and I just don’t understand how they think device manufacturers are going to go through all this just so they can sell devices in our tiny state. We can just go buy them in mass. Or kids can use their laptops because those aren’t included in this law.

Anyway if you would like to support or oppose the bill you can use this link right here

gc.nh.gov/house/committees/rem

After you enter your information you would choose February 5, then you would choose the judiciary committee from the drop-down, then you would choose HB293 at 11 AM, support or oppose, and if you write anything in the text box just be aware that it becomes public record.

If the link here does not show you the text for the bill you should see a drop-down for “version” and you’ll just want to choose introduced, or if there’s a more recent one pick that one. That should allow you to read the whole bill.

If you can help oppose this bill for all of us that would be lovely.

gc.nh.gov/house/committees/rem

Then you would choose Wednesday, February 5

In the drop-down you would choose the judiciary committee

Then at 9:30 AM you would choose house bill 232 and OPPOSE

If you want to type something in the box you can just please know that it is public information. You don’t have to type anything in the box.

I also opposed the 11 am HB293 because that’s the #PornBan that the southern states have, it would ban pornography for anyone under 18. (Same day, same committee)

Now I understand why I saw a photo of old people protesting inside the mall of New Hampshire with signs that say “I can’t GOON”

More from Brad Mitchell at Mojohost:

"While it is impossible to predict every outcome, we are confident that a full ban on adult content is unlikely to succeed. We continue to operate on this basis and, should legislative or executive action threaten the industry’s right to exist and serve its audiences, MojoHost stands prepared to maintain its role as a vigilant advocate. We are ready to challenge such decisions at the highest levels, if necessary."

If Etsy acquires, gets acquired by, or merges with eBay or Amazon or Alibaba or Temu in the next six months, I called it yesterday, based on my theory that when a platform rolls out new pornocalypse policies, it usually indicates a financial inflection point like a merger or acquisition.

Here's yesterday's ErosBlog post on the upcoming Etsy pornocalypse:

My feed's been full of pornocalypse lately, so I went back to look at Matt Mullenweg's "Why "Go Nuts, Show Nuts" Doesn’t Work in 2022" that he wrote to explain why the ballyhooed Tumblr porn "unbanning" was a search-invisibility nothingburger.

Well, guess what you see if you follow that link now? "You'll need to be on Tumblr to see this...."

Fuck that. It needs to be on the open web for research and commentary:
