Which in the end turns out to be gay pr0n. I'm quite amazed how it passed. Seriously, don't watch it as it cannot be unseen vimeo.com/200672866 |

Examples: * long distance telephones for bootlegging * VCRs for images with lots of pink * pagers for drug drops --- End quote --- and they all have one thing in common; the government trying to prevent people from getting something they really really want, failing miserably and accomplishing nothing but giving organized crime a monopoly and giant profits here "images with lots of pink" were legalized in 1969, I don't think there were many VCRs around back then |

--- Quote from: KaneTW on February 18, 2020, 10:32:58 am ---Yep. My main reasons are a) restricting content paves the way to pseudo-censorship b) it combats the negative stigma of sex work c) explicit content shouldn't be something frowned upon d) the line between educational and explicit content can be rather thin sometimes --- End quote --- How about child pornography ? |

--- Quote from: edy on February 18, 2020, 12:45:19 pm ---Alternatively putting a bitcoin miner on the page perhaps could create revenue, although that would also slow down computers. --- End quote --- What I would like to see is a coin that's "mined" by sharing bandwidth, since that uses a lot less electricity than compute intensive mining. Just that so far, nobody has made that work in practice. Perhaps it would be done by hosting public hotspots that require payment to connect (albeit at a far cheaper rate than cellular) with Tor as a backend to get around the usual problems of hosting an open AP on your home connection. |

I might join LBRY and put up content that I have uploaded to YouTube but for whatever reason YouTube has refused to monetize. For example, stuff that is not obscene, but may not be advertiser-friendly. Things like surgical procedures, target shooting or reviews on firearms, and so on. So completely viewable on YouTube without any restrictions on age, but just unable to monetize due to advertiser limitations. What do I have to lose in that case? |
