Dang someone had that response locked and loaded, 2 minutes later... in any case I did not expect this entire sub-thread under a discussion on decentralized web!

If you’re going to insinuate on Hacker News, that pornography is inspiring behaviors that are literally killing people… you need to bring receipts. Being in denial of harm is the favorite pastime here, but that's just the first stage of grief.

Case in point, the sex-positive educators in the UK... forced to say that certain bedroom behaviors actually are too dangerous to participate in. Even that, yes, we will control what you do in the bedroom, with the force of law, and even restrict depicting that act regardless of consent, with the force of law. Extremely ironic that sex-positive educators are now forced to say what you can do in the bedroom, after they said "who are you to tell consenting adults what they can do" for decades.

> This is the first comment I've seen from you that leverages the UK's authority on anything related to online safety.

Edit for a (now deleted) reply: This has nothing to do with the UK; studies objectively say this activity is more dangerous than waterboarding. If that is true, action is objectively necessary, including against depictions.
