Google's Censorship Of The Internet

Adult content policy on Blogger

 Starting March 23, 2015, you won't be able to publicly share images and video that are sexually explicit or show graphic nudity on Blogger. Note: We’ll still allow nudity if the content offers a substantial public benefit, for example in artistic, educational, documentary, or scientific contexts. Changes you’ll see to your existing blogs If your existing blog doesn’t have any sexually explicit or graphic nude images or video on it, you won’t notice any changes.

 If your existing blog does have sexually explicit or graphic nude images or video, your blog will be made private after March 23, 2015. No content will be deleted, but private content can only be seen by the owner or admins of the blog and the people who the owner has shared the blog with. Settings you can update for existing blogs.

If your blog was created before March 23, 2015, and contains content that violates our new policy, you have a few options for changing your blog before the new policy starts:
If you’d rather take your blog down altogether, you can export your blog as a .xml file or archive your blog's text and images using Google Takeout.

Effect on new blogs

For any blogs created after March 23, 2015, we may remove the blog or take other action if it includes content that is sexually explicit or shows graphic nudity as explained in our content policy. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

 I don't have a problem with taking down the pictures of the girls to keep the blog up. What I have a problem with is Google's nebulous definition of "sexually explicit or graphic nude images" and them deciding  what is and isn't "graphic" or "explicit" and then torpedoing ANY BLOG they do not like.

Bobby Keys Is Gone....R.I.P.



Bobby Keys, the saxophonist who played on some of the Rolling Stones‘ biggest and best songs, has died. He was 70 years old. He had been fighting cirrhosis, according to the Nashville Scene.

The musician was born in Texas, and by the time he turned 16, he was touring with Buddy Holly and Bobby Vee. He first met the Stones in 1964, but didn’t play on one of their albums until five years later, when he was one of the musicians brought in to flesh out ‘Let It Bleed.’ He and Keith Richards formed a strong relationship from the start. They even shared a birthdate: December 18.

He played on every Stones album up until 1974′s ‘It’s Only Rock ‘n Roll,’ and then from 1980′s ‘Emotional Rescue’ through their most recent record, 2005′s ‘A Bigger Bang.’ He joined the band’s 1970 tour and was a familiar presence at their shows all the way up until a couple months ago, when he had to drop out of the group’s current tour for medical reasons.
