Cameron ‘Porn’ Advisor’s website ‘hacked’ – Threatens/Libels Blogger
I've mentioned this before on one of these threads: I think any focus on the sexual morality of politicians, political point scoring and such is superfluous.<p>Porn  and other "offensive content" has been restricted or banned in pretty much every time and place by various means. Even if an outright ban does not exist in blanket legislation, there <i>are</i> restrictions, codes of practice, industry bodies, laws applying narrowly to certain media channels or something like that.<p>Basically, porn gets regulated/restricted/banned always by whatever authority has the means to do so. Always. And some authority always has jurisdiction in some way over every mainstream media source. The difference on the internet is that no one <i>could</i> regulate it. There was no authority or industry body. No power that could be appealed to. Now the internet can be regulated, seemingly.<p>That is the story here. Not "Cameron is a prude" or "Cameron is pro-censorship."<p>The internet is regulatable now. <i>That's</i> the story. This probably means that the same restrictions that apply elsewhere (TV, radio, print) will apply online.
