I was online and me and a friend were viewing beastiality when all of a sudden a message from the Department of Justice, stating they were the FBI, shut my phone down and now I cant use my phone. The fishy thing about this is that the language used in the notice from the FBI doesnt make any sense. It almost sounds like a person with little knowledge of the english language. More You didn't ask, but: there is nothing remotely funny about bestiality. You are a self-admitted customer who chooses to support and enable an active commercial market of traffic in the suffering and degradation of helpless and captive living creatures. Shame. Shame shame shame shame. Word to the wise: there are lots of people out there who see this issue the way I do. Some of them are federal agents. Some are US attorneys. Some are federal judges.

Gavin Newsom, the California governor, signed AB 730 into law, making it illegal to create or distribute ‘deepfake’ videos. Photograph: Rich Pedroncelli/Associated Press Gavin Newsom, the California governor, signed AB 730 into law, making it illegal to create or distribute ‘deepfake’ videos. Photograph: Rich Pedroncelli/Associated Press California made it illegal to create or distribute “deepfakes” in a move meant to protect voters from misinformation but may be difficult to enforce. California’s governor, Gavin Newsom, on Thursday signed legislation that makes it illegal to create or distribute videos, images, or audio of politicians doctored to resemble real footage within 60 days of an election. Deepfakes are videos Major social media sites struggled to rein in the misinformation campaign, and Facebook chief executive officer Mark Zuckerberg admitted in June the company’s California assemblymember Marc Berman said he introduced AB 730 ahead of the 2020 election amid growing concerns over how such false content can sway voters. Read more “Deepfakes are a powerful and dangerous new technology that can be weaponized to sow misinformation and discord among an already hyper-partisan electorate,” Berman But the new deepfakes law will face a number of roadblocks, said Jane Kirtley, a professor of media ethics and law at Hubbard School of Journalism and Mass Communication, as political speech enjoys more protections in print and online than in broadcast. Because of free speech...

Minors don’t typically face criminal charges for consensual conduct. But there are many instances where non-consensual conduct is involved. For example, there are seemingly constant stories in the media about nude pictures being taken of minors passed out drunk at parties. Other times we hear of stories about pictures being taken consensually by minors who are dating. Once the couple breaks up, the photos are posted all over social media. Taking these pictures of anyone under the age of 18, with or without their consent, is a crime. Teens and parents need to be aware that the same laws designed to prevent adu...

The genres of adult pornography have become much more "hard-core" or extreme. Let's say Person A goes online to view adult pornography. He is merely viewing it (not distributing or selling). The material, however, is extreme. It goes well beyond simply showing two adults undressed with exposed sexual organs. According to its policy, an Internet Service Provider allows users to access anything online, as long as it is legal. The questions are: Is it legal to view adult pornography online, although considered hard-core or extreme? By viewing such material, has the user violated the internet service provider's policy? More As to whether viewing extreme pornography is legal, it generally is. The exceptions are child pornography, and being in a situation where one can be accused of selling/distributing obscene material. Not all pornography is what would legally be called obscene. The law on what constitutes obscenity is based on local standards, so something that is obscene in Salt Lake City may not be obscene in Los Angeles (search for the Miller Test online). One would have to see the ISP's policy to give a definitive answer to your second question. Lawyers for the ISP probably crafted their policy so that if they find out about viewing obscene material, they can be protected from a charge of selling/distributing. I doubt it is as simple as allowing access to anything as long as it is legal. Information provided in this forum is for generalized discussion proposes and should ...

I. California Penal Code 311: Possession/Distribution of Child Pornography Legal Definition: Every person who knowingly possesses or controls any matter, representation of information, data, or image, including, but not limited to, any film, filmstrip, photograph, negative, slide, photocopy, videotape, video laser disc, computer hardware, computer software, computer floppy disc, data storage media, CD-ROM, or computer-generated equipment or any other computer-generated image that contains or incorporates in any manner, any film or filmstrip, the production of which involves the use of a person under 18 years of age, knowing that the matter depicts a person under 18 years of age personally engaging in or simulating sexual conduct. ( PC 311.11(a)) Every person, who knowingly is in possession of twelve (12) videos, or six hundred (600) images, of child pornography, described in PC 311.11(a) above, or child abuse involving sexual sadism or sexual masochism, is guilty of possession of child pornography as an enhancement under PC 311.11(c). The difference between the two charges above is the amount of photos/videos that you possess. To prove that you are guilty of PC 311.11, the prosecutor must prove that: • You possessed an image or video, in any media format, depicting sexual conduct, simulated or actual, of a minor under eighteen (18); AND • You knew that you possessed the images or video and knew that the image or video depicted the minor, engaging in, or simulating sexual c...

The act of sexual exploitation of a child is criminalized under Sec 311 of the California Penal Code. There are two ways that this crime is committed, one through child pornography or through sexual battery of a child. Both these acts are prosecuted as felony offenses and depending on the attendant circumstances, the crime can be tried in either state or federal courts. Child pornography, by definition, is the production of material that depicts minors engaged in or simulating sexual acts and other similar conduct. Sexual conduct can be sexual intercourse, oral sex, anal sex or other lascivious acts. This includes performance of excretory functions done in a lewd manner or when sexual activity is done between people and/or animals. Furthermore, penetration of any bodily orifice through the use of an object, performance of sadomasochistic acts, masturbation and/or exhibition of genitalia is considered as within the purview of pornography when the purpose of all these acts is for the sexual arousal of the viewer and/or viewers. Aside from the abovementioned acts, the criminal acts are covered under this provision: • Secs. 311.1(a) and 311.2(b) of the California Penal Code criminalizes the act of distribution of child pornography; • Sec 311.4 of the California Penal Code criminalizes the employment of minors to participate in the production of child pornography; • Sec 311.10 of the California Penal Code criminalizes the advertising of child pornography; • Sec 311.3 of the Cal...

In a sweeping and controversial move, the state of California recently voted to overhaul its sex education curriculum, leaving some people dumbfounded by how the Golden State could advocate teaching graphic and age-inappropriate topics in every public school classroom. Ironically, the adopted framework claims to care about all viewpoints, including religious and cultural ones, according to its own documents, (DOCX) , which states the material as, “Appropriate for use with all students regardless of their disability, gender, gender identity, gender expression, nationality, race or ethnicity, culture, religion, sexual orientation, or living situation.” But as the READ: Police training call shows how Planned Parenthood helps sexual abusers “The framework tells teachers that students in kindergarten can identify as transgender and offers tips for how to talk about that, adding ‘the goal is not to cause confusion about the gender of the child but to develop an awareness that other expressions exist,'” reported the Associated Press. But this sex “education” doesn’t stop at normalizing gender dysphoria. “It gives tips for discussing masturbation with middle-schoolers,” says the AP, “including telling them it is not physically harmful, and for discussing puberty with transgender teens that creates ‘an environment that is inclusive and challenges binary concepts about gender.'” There was a public comment period that lasted 60 days prior to the vote. In that time, parents, teachers,...
