PlayStation Home And Porn - No Problems

Posted by Zonk on Wednesday March 21, 2007 @09:55AM from the match-made-in-dallas dept.

Via Eurogamer, a post on the 'semi-official' ThreeSpeech blog essentially saying that Sony doesn't see porn as an issue for the upcoming Home PS3 service. Sony's Phil Harrison was on the other end of the blog's questions, and after reminding us that avatars won't be able to interact, it will be easy to blacklist people, and they will have lots of filters in place: "Well I'm disappointed that you would use those as the first questions ... I think Home should be used for a much wider and more beneficial scope than [porn], but I think that people can express their creativity inside Home in a wide variety of ways and it's not necessarily for us to dictate what that should be."

Except with way less features and customizability.

In second life anyone can make models/animations, scripts, and textures upload them and use them however they want. In home users can only upload textures and can only display them in their "personal space". The only people who can develop models and scripts or anything that can occur in public space are 1st and 3rd party developers.
