The Pornocalypse Is Coming For Stories Too
-
@hentaihunter1 Naw, we just gotta stay one step ahead. Small fora like SWB and DD aren’t going to be shut down absent a change in the law.

@olo Oh, good. I like writing. I might not be good, but I like doing it.
-
Main thing to remember is sites like xHamster are businesses so they will shut down whatever is not profitable. Community based sites like this tend to just be passed down from one owner to another.
Written porn is essentially completely legal so there are no hazards in hosting it. It’s also extremely compact. Anyone everywhere could have a fully intact archive of all the porn stories from 1990 onwards on any sort of modern USB stick lol.
-
Interestingly, if these sites are US-based and these pious laws seem to come from there, is it not possible to just register, or re-register, the website somewhere more progressive?
Might work in our case.
I mean, I literally don’t know the answer to this. I’m not that tech-savvy,
-
@comrade It’s not the law (yet), it’s advertisers deciding they don’t want to be associated with icky porn.
-
@olo Ah, very interesting. Yeah, I didn’t know all the context.

Yeah so long as it makes the government money the US government does not care, it’s not that our government is not progressive it’s that it’s extremely corrupt and full of easily bribed politicians. It’s why I laugh when I read articles about potentially seeing an anime ban here, we’re not Australia we don’t use over pricing and high taxes on foreign products as a tool censorship. The only way that will happen is if the US and China stop caring about their money pits/black holes. If it’s just big corporations banning it. Then the only option if you want to make money off your fetish is to go completely independent. If Patreon bans it, use Paypal donations, if Kick starter bans it, again it may be more complicated but again PayPal.

I’ve been nervous about Twitter ever since Tumblr, and, uh, apparently we have a little more to be worried about now:

"twitter removing post crop at the same time as getting ready to allow people to add tip jars to their accounts
why does this smell like the calm air before a storm of “we’re going to ban all the nsfw artists and sex workers and also random queer people”
-
Yeah, NSFW Twitter should make evacuation plans ASAP.

Are we allowed to still post smut stories, then? On here?

Yes. Small fora like this won’t be affected unless there’s an actual change in the law.
What’s happening to major sites is that advertisers and e-transaction companies (like Paypal) are feeling pressure not to be associated with porn and are pulling financial support for sites that allow it. There’s also a panic association of porn with human trafficking, and corporations are deciding to go with blanket bans on porn rather than take the risk of being targeted by boycotts.

@olo I’m a legal researcher, I can track this bill/proposed legislation and determine its applicability to Daddy’s Dollhouse (present and future).
Do we have information on this ? Is it a HR or SB? Is this US Congress?

@nephilim It’s not a bill or a law at all. It’s just a trend in corporate behavior. Smut isn’t being made illegal, advertisers just don’t want to be associated with it.
ETA: Since (AFIAK) Daddy’s Dollhouse isn’t dependent upon advertiser revenue, it’s not threatened by this trend.

@olo Ah, ok. Well, plot twist: if I do see any sort of proposal in the legislature, I’ll ring the alarm bells.
-
@olo I mean, the porn industry is pretty fucking awful. And I’ve been reading lately that interest in CP is actually growing. (We can probably thank the Streisand Effect for that.)
But you’re right, if anyone ACTUALLY gave a damn about trafficking and CP then we would have… smartly designed laws put into place, not whacked-out sledgehammers like FOSTA and paternalistic corporate gaslighting because the fat cats know they can’t directly tackle the problem without alienating the folks who actually butter their bread. The emperor has no clothes.
