Censored

Even non-nudes are sometimes too much for the censors at Photobucket...

Censored



Once again MySpace thought they needed to protect the moral majority. The strange thing is that the image was sent to me (publicly!) by my good friend Nora as a comment and was not censored. But as I tried to put the image into one of my photo albums on my profile they thought they needed to feel alarmed.

Here's their standard warning:

We had to remove an image (or images) from your account because they violated our Terms of Use. Our site is for people as young as 13, so we can't have certain kinds of pics (nude/sexually explicit, violence). Find out more about content we don’t allow at http://www.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=misc.terms. If you continue to violate our Terms, we may be forced to remove your account.

If you find an image which you feel is in violation of our Terms, please feel free to use the 'report image' link below the image.

Thanks for your understanding.

Censored



I took this photo from a shopping window of Regensburg's largest department store. Photobucket deleted the photo because it "violated our terms of use". It must be a strange world these people live in...

On the other side: MySpace did not delete it from my photgraphy album...yet.

Censored



Over the years I have experienced so much censorship I have a whole collection of images that were previously unacceptable on MySpace, Photobucket and with all the other advocates of the moral majority.

I've found the case with this photo particularly interesting, since it actually DOES NOT show, what they most fear. You guess...
