Scottishbloke how can you say ilovemegan is talking shit when you say the majority of the population would be against censorship. How do you know this?What data is this based on?
Well for a start just look at the amount of complaints made to ofcom about the babe channels. We are talking about a handful at most, the very fact that ofcom are even investigating the channels based on a solitory complaint or even none at all speaks volumes, it's ofcom who are against this type of entertainment, most people out there like I said couldn't give a rat's arse what is shown the telly in the 900+ section bladewave

Well, SB's data is probably more accurate than Ofcon's assertion that there are hordes of children watching the encrypted shows night after night.

Both are probably bollox, based on the prejudices of the owners of the opinions.
if you base the facts that a programme such as eastenders which has in the past received hundreds of complaints for one single episode and have not even been fined , and compare that the the babe channels and complaints it proves that they are victims of discrimination as far as punishment is concerned, i have never seen a pre warning statement from the bbc that theres is going to be violence homosexual and extra marital affairs on offer in a episode , even though its broadcast before the watershed, now how does a child associate with this to real life ? a damn lot more damaging to the young mind than for instance a nip slip on the daytime show on the babe channels , ofcom have made no secret that their enemy is the babe channels and its so blatantly obvious that they are willing to break even their own laws to punish them ,

No party wants to be accused for arbitrary censorship ither like old East European or Arab governments either. Depends how it is phrased.

Quote:Those of us who have children are already concerned explicit information is already too available in the public domain and that domain is almost un-policeable so the 900's have no chance.

There is a world of difference between internet sites in Thailand and the 900s. The 900s have measures to protect children, and could improve it.

Ofcom recently slapped ITV (I think) because they showed an old Agatha Christie film, Death on the Nile, with a suicide scene in the afternoon. The film is PG and has been repeatedly shown before. Ofcom say the offending scene must be cut if shown when children might watch.

For what its worth, the ISPs wanted to ban Pirate Bay but wanted the legal figleaf of a court order to protect them in case customers or Pirate Bay sued them.

Most complaints come from a handful of people with an agenda who deliberately seek out explicit content. The general public do not want their favourite content censored.

A very poor contradiction of my post if you ask me, but as per usual you try to be a smart ass but only it's you that is made to look foolish in this instance, you really take everything as literal don't you bladewave

You are the one who made a foolish comment and I pointed it out, that's all. Could you perhaps quote some of my other posts where I'm "talking shit as per usual" so I'll know what to avoid in the future? Thanks Cool

They do if your agenda is "no sex please, we're British".

It's the same old story. Britain has a history of restricting sexual material; real sex that is. Look how long it took to get full sex films to be legal when the vast majority of the rest of Europe happily accepted it as a normal part of human society.
The politicians' puppets at Ofcon are not going to relax their rules anytime soon.

Still does not explain why oftwats ba the vagina but allow the penis anytime,,that is pure sexism..

Still awaiting a reply from Graham Howell ,,it seems folk must now be going to him to complain about ofcom and so they fucking should ofcom just sweep complaints under the carpet..What do they do these 800 employees on a wage that would take me yerars to get..Sounds like they do just look out the window at the Thames.
Lots of keen uphill skiers at Ofcom like to see bell ends on tv perhaps?? Ooohhh bite the pillow Norman!!
While we're on the subject of the Ofcom scum, can anyone tell what the state of play is concerning chief Tosser Ed Richards? is he still in the Ofcom hot seat, or has he finally made it to the BBC?

Thanks GuysSmile
