There, I said it: porn.
In the latest issue of the new journal 'Porn Studies', a new article of mine ponders why researchers have paid so little attention to porn piracy. It's one of the few open access ones in this issue, so it's free to download and enjoy.
The article unpacks reasons why engaging in porn piracy might carry unique motivations (when compared to music piracy, for example), and considers the unique challenges rights holders have in fighting porn piracy.
The article discusses the recent 'Pay For Your Porn' campaign, which adds some colour to proceedings and generally makes links to recent news items. It's a hot topic.
Whether or not you approve of it, the porn industry is an industry like any other and employs lots and lots of people across a range of roles
The new issue of the journal itself contains a few articles on censorship and related topics which might also be of interest to readers of this blog.
Check it out, unless of course you are too scared to be caught 'reading' about porn..
