It is concerning to me that there are now international (Western ?) guidelines[1] (2016) and conventions that don't seem to realise the consequences of taking a hard stance on the combination of three of their points : - a child is any person under the age of 18 years - including non-explicit sexual activities - any material that visually depicts a child [engaged in those] Am I missing something, or have they 'criminalised' a quite large chunk of art ?!? [1] https://ecpat.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/Terminology-gui... Then we have these guidelines embedded in automated systems (sometimes with people as 'cogs'), add a pinch of pressure by puritans in power of various stripes, and a decade later we end up with payment networks forcing platforms to kick out artists even when what they are doing is not illegal in their respective jurisdictions ! |
