Blogger is going bananas about nudity - new blog rules :s

Looks like the prudes are winning. 

Got an email from Blogger about explicit nudity. I had a minor disagreement with Blog Surfer (the red button on the left) a while back about some of the images on the blog. It got flagged and Blog Surfer cut me off. I protested and was reinstated with Blog Surfer, them saying I was cut off "by accident". Since then nobody has had a problem as the images link to safe sex campaigns and weren't nudity just for nudity's sake.

Until now. I received this email from Blogger:

We're writing to tell you about an upcoming change to the Blogger Content Policy that may affect your account. 

In the coming weeks, we'll no longer allow blogs that contain sexually explicit or graphic nude images or video. We'll still allow nudity presented in artistic, educational, documentary or scientific contexts, or where there are other substantial benefits to the public from not taking action on the content. 

The new policy will take effect on 23 March 2015. After this policy comes into force, Google will restrict access to any blog identified as being in violation of our revised policy. No content will be deleted, but only blog authors and those with whom they have expressly shared the blog will be able to see the content that we've made private. 

Our records indicate that your account may be affected by this policy change. Please refrain from creating new content that would violate this policy. We would also ask you to make any necessary changes to your existing blog to comply as soon as possible so that you won't experience any interruptions in service. You may also choose to create an archive of your content via Google Takeout

Oh good grief. I can see what's going to happen. Some prude will flag the blog and it'll be made private where no one can see it. Then I'll have to go through some bullshit procedure to get the blog made normal again and everything will be all fucked up. *sheesh* I just can't be bothered. 

So in the interests of keeping the blog going I've taken down the links on the right that prudes would find offensive. The blog is a major outlet to my frustrations and dramas and I'd hate to lose that.

In keeping with all of the above, I've also disabled the "Adult Content" warning when viewing the blog.
