Ensuring Personal Privacy and Sexual Freedom

We are calling for a Joint Committee on Sexual Liberty to update our out-dated “obscenity” laws in order to protect personal privacy and guarantee consensual adult sexual freedom.

Why is this important?

PERSONAL PRIVACY: The Digital Economy Bill currently before Parliament will introduce compulsory age verification without guaranteeing privacy protections for subscribers. This omission risks users’ personal details and private sexual preferences being exploited for commercial gain and/or leaked into the public domain.

SEXUAL FREEDOM: Consensual adult sex should not be outlawed, yet this Bill will prohibit the publication of depictions of sexual activities that are legal to perform. This Bill imposes a financial burden on free, amateur and niche commercial websites, affecting sexual minorities by denying them from freely expressing their sexuality.
