X is for X-rated

I have no hard evidence, but I think one of the senior Google executives is a hardened anti-spanking nut.

You must have noticed that when you type words into the search bar of Google, you get a list of helpful hints of how to finish off the rest of your inquiry.   Unless you start using crude language, and the Maiden-Aunt side of google takes over, and all help is promptly withdrawn.

Within the world of Google, the word "spanking" is in their lexicon of crude language.   The word spanking itself is so fraught with peril that when anyone says it, Aunt Google quickly crosses to the other side of the street to avert her eyes away in soulful disbelief that such a word is being used in polite society.

And her team of stalwart blue-noses diligently track down all and any site that might inflame the masses with their spanking content:  if you get to the "L" of Nu-west Leda all the helpful search hints vanish from the list.   For it is very important to the hardened anti-spanking nut that Googol is never seen to assist spanking freaks get their fill.    They wont stop us - that might lose advertising revenue - but they will make it plain that they do not really approve of what we are up to.

Now, as it happens, Blogger is owned - indirectly - by Google.   And when we bloggers use crude language or show pictures and/or videos of an adult nature, our blogs are put behind a privacy screen - called the "Mature Content Warning"  to ensure only mature audiences get to slake their lust by visiting such sites.

Google claims it does not review the content of sites:  it simply responds to hints given to it by people who wish to protect young ones from porn.   Having been alerted to a possible adult site masquerading as a family one, Google checks out the blog's SEO keywords and then place it behind a Mature Content warning.

Which you - as an adult and mature web searcher cannot turn off.   Every single time you revisit one of your favorite sites, you will have to reconfirm for the umpteenth time that you wish to continue.   

Some spanking sites do have language that is extremely raunchy, and other display pictures that make very public the most private of private parts.   And, if parents have not set privacy controls on their kid's search options, I suppose their is some sort of case that Aunty Google should take action to hinder the tykes in their quest for knowledge that may be too adult for them.   But a button that reads "I wish to continue" - that's supposed to do the trick?  Really?

The point is that any blog that regularly discusses spanking material, no matter in what form, it will sooner or later be culled off to sit behind the "Adult Content" warning.

When that happens to me, I do hope that you will continue to wend your way in here.   There are serious sides to the thing that we do, and I shall continue to explore them as I have done so far.
