Google Video - Porn Outlet?

People watching Google Video closely noticed a change this week in the upload area - the restrictions on uploading “pornographic or obscene” material is now just a restriction on “obscene” material. They’ve also added a “mature and adult” category to the genres and removed (I believe) a box on the initial uploading page that must be checked where the uploader certifies that the “video is not pornographic or obscene material.

If anything, being able to find porn on Google saves folk from visiting unsavoury sites that have the nerve to:

- give us viruses, trojans, dialers
- give us never-ending pop-up ads
- are step 1 in a long path to nasty/illegal stuff
- have the nerve to charge for porn!
