When I started in this business I used to wish Britain was more like America, we had so many uptight laws. Over the last decade or so we have got more liberal over here while America appears to be getting more uptight.
Nowadays the situation seems to have totally reversed, and I am glad Britain is not like America, I don't want the same asshole laws that they keep dumping on you guys.
Not just in the case of 2257, but all over this industry. For example I have had a problem with my newsgroup supplier (he has a fault on his European server), he suggested I switched to their American server while things were fixed. Unfortunately the reason I need newsgroup access is to do with a website belonging to one of my authors (I am helping him out with his site). His niche is bondage, and apparently the company I use for newsgroups has to block many of the bondage newsgroups on his US server, leaving only a few available to Americans.
And over here I can still push gambolling sites as my sponsor if I want to (I don't do so, but I have that option if I desire), hell, I could even get a licence and set up my own gambolling site!
Oh to be in England, now that censorship is here.
