Brexit Anyone have any thoughts on what the Brexit will mean for UK sites? On one hand, Cameron, who advocates porn filtering, will be resigning. On the other hand, porn filtering hit a major roadblock when it conflicted with EU law. I think it's hard to say how this will play out, and the UK certainly has bigger issues than porn, but I think it's just going to be more of the same for UK sites - government interference, censorship, and obstacles to doing business. Better to be pissed on, than to be pissed off. | |

To be honest with you. I think the Brits, the Welch, the Scotch's the Irish and every other European Countries are going to have way more things to worry about in the next few years to really about porn in general. To me Brexit is the kind of Democratic monster that frightens me because the people for and against it use the 50% + 1 argument to say that it was democratically done. On paper there is no arguing that but the real world reality is that if we use 100 Million as the number of votes than half the population was for it and half was against it which in the case of Brexit is pretty close to what the final vote was. You want to have a vote on something that is going to drastically alter the world than you make sure that the vote is at the very minimum 60/40 but ideally it should be 75/25. I think democracy demands that a vast majority of voters be for or against something before it gets done and 50% + 1 is not that by a long shot. Case in point. They interviewed a man9IDIOT) who voted for Brexit and was than shocked when it went through. He never thought that his vote mattered. Now that's just one man but imagine how many others voted for Brexit without really understanding all the ramifications. It gets worse because one of the key players on the Pro-Brexit side admitted on TV that one of the key selling point involving the amount of money Britain sends the EU was an outright lie. Long live the Brown Coats. | |

The whole Brexit thing has just hghlighted that the UK (or at England) is in effect two states - London and the rest of the country, seemingly with benefits of being in the EU all focussed on London. Supposedly the UK economy is booming but outside the big cities like London and Manchester, there's little sign of that. I doubt Brexit will have any impact on UK porn sites as the government will be far too busy expending their efforts to sort of the actual exit terms over the next few years, or at least until 2019. | |

I was hoping that "brex it" could simply mean "eat something that's not normally breakfast food for breakfast." "That pizza slice? I brexed it." Too late now ... I wanted something new, so I left England for New England. | |
