Reddit Imposes Ban On Sexual Content Posted Without Permission

Mark Wilson writes If you want to post naked pictures or videos of people on Reddit without their consent, you only have a couple of weeks to do so. As of March, the site is imposing a ban on content of an explicit nature that the subject has not given permission to be posted. The cleanup of the site comes hot on the heels of news from Google that explicit content will be banned from Blogger. It also comes in the wake of last year's Fappening which saw a glut of naked celebrity photos leaked online.

    Lucky that slashdot's commenting system is so ancient and crappy it doesn't have to worry about people uploading gifs or anything else that isn't ascii.

    You haven't lived until you've seen a centerfold spread out over six feet of multiple strips of punched paper tape. :/

    Back in my day, we had to look at actual naked folk.
