Interesting email I just got
 
Quote:

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 Hosted Flash Movies will also be withdrawn.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 !!

Chris

I think I'd be incorporating elsewhere and/or moving my hosting.

i do not think it matters where you host (most of the sites in the uk are hosted in the usa).

its if your in the uk or not.

i bet a lot of uk sites may just remove the vids and become pics only.

saves all the problems.

Yep problem solved, just photos and no video why didn't I think of that ?
Whenever I see the word ATVOD, ATV comes into my head and I just think of Tiswas.
"Saturday, Saturday, Saturday is an ATVOD day, Saturday, Saturday, never a day to miss cos every days an ATVOD day" !!

Shit like this makes me want to go all top secret and shit just to make a few dollars. I hate doing it, but it's the truth.

Replace Tiswas with ATVOD and there's a real symbolism there :)

It's an EU directive so wherever you are in Europe you'll get stung, though I'd admit Croatia looks good. Where you host has absolutely nothing to do with it.

Another post showing just how completely fucking clueless you really are.

ATVOD does not cover either Live Streaming or user uploaded.

So a tube and cam/live productions are the way to avoid this silly tax.

Welcome to the beginnings of Internet censorship.
