Extreme pornography law: they tried to sound sane but the law is mad

[ciphergoth]

emarkienna has published an analysis of the new extreme pornography law. They tried to sound sane and reasonable during the consultation process, but the law they've come up with is censorious madness. You can explicitly get three years inside for copying a segment from a legally-bought Hollywood movie into your porn folder.

Backlash are campaigning against the new law.

Aaaarghg.

Well, I just plain don't believe that, especially since that doesn't seem to stop them when it comes to mistreating refugees or asylum seekers. But I don't think there's any hope of either of us convincing the other on that point.
