As you may be aware ATVOD (www.atvod.co.uk) have been appointed by OFCOM to 'police' sites hosting videos based in the UK. British Dollars has been contacted by ATVOD regarding the licensing of our sites. During a telephone call made by them to me the word 'regulate' was constantly used by the them.
We have therefore decided to merge most of the single sites we run fully into the Brit Porn Network with the exception of British Spankers and Brit Porn Pass.
In addition to comply with the licensing and Ofcom's Broadcasting Code we have removed all the hard core trailers on Brit Porn Network. We are also in the process of taking them off all our hosted galleries and free sites and will replace them with photos at a later stage. The galleries themselves will remain up. Hosted Flash Movies will also be withdrawn. The regulations basically state that 'hard core movies' cannot be accessible to those under 18 and must be protected by an age verification system i.e. credit card membership (but not debit cards)
This is obviously and evolving situation and no doubt many other UK sponsors will have to make changes to what they provide their affiliates for marketing.
Interesting times ahead !!
