Contemplating the End

I think we’ll all be reading this message across quite a few of the blogs we read over the next day or two.

Dear Blogger User,

We’re writing to tell you about an upcoming change to the Blogger Content 
Policy that may affect your account.

In the coming weeks, we’ll no longer allow blogs that contain sexually
explicit or graphic nude images or video. We’ll still allow nudity 
presented in artistic, educational, documentary or scientific contexts, or 
where there are other substantial benefits to the public from not taking action on the content.


The new policy will take effect on 23 March 2015. After this policy comes
into force, Google will restrict access to any blog identified as being in
violation of our revised policy. No content will be deleted, but only blog
authors and those with whom they have expressly shared the blog will be able to see the content that we’ve made private.

Our records indicate that your account may be affected by this policy
change.

 
Please refrain from creating new content that would violate this
policy. We would also ask you to make any necessary changes to your
existing blog to comply as soon as possible so that you won’t experience
any interruptions in service. You may also choose to create an archive of 
your content via Google Takeout 
(
https://www.google.com/settings/takeout/custom/blogger).

For more information, please look here

Yours sincerely,
The Blogger Team

Thanks Blogger Team.  Oddly, my blog almost never contains images of female nudity, despite being (let’s face it chaps, if we’re honest with ourselves) a pornographic blog devoted to the female form. There are occasional male slaves (OK quite a lot, actually, two just in the post below)… would it help if I found those images and deleted them? Somehow I suspect not.  I think it is more likely that you are going to regard all of this blog as too naughty for Google, sooner or later, and the blog is doomed.
 
So I think this is The End.

After four years… several hundred posts, 2000 images, about 50 stories, one or two decent jokes…
 
Gulp.
 
Sniff.
 
Anyway. What a good thing I set up a Tumblr just a few months ago…

See you there!
