Sex, blogs, and applicable law
The blogosphere has had no problem in covering all aspects of sex imaginable. There are many fan pages and / or professionals who publish pornographic or sexual content on the network. But these publications should be smoothed with precautions and legal statutory rate, mostly to limit the impact and damage that these contents could cause especially youth and children. For that matter, also to avoid trouble that can become very unpleasant. No one's funny that you accuse of corruption of minors.
At the time of posting a blog with sexual or pornographic content should be noted that not content prohibited by Spanish law. Therefore not be prohibited, but beware, because according to the tone if that could mean some offense to public order and morality. There is a legal overprotection all you have to do with children. Almost all the "crimes against sexual freedom and indemnity" referred to in Title VIII of our penal code, increase the penalty if there are minors involved. Sexual assault, abuse, corruption and prostitution of minors, etc, are also within this concept. Also keep in mind that the sale, distribution or display of pornographic material to minors or incompetent is a rule with respect to blogs with sexual content.
Given all this, Martin Codax, law adviser for New Technologies, recommended from bloguismo.com the following:
1 - Post an ad in your blog or on your website indicating the type of content that the user will encounter. This notice must be visible from any route of entry to your site and regardless of the source of traffic (search engines, links, direct typing in your domain). The notice shall give the user the possibility to refuse the visit to your site or, by contrast, continue to access, at your own risk. The final basic point of this brief notice is that the user declares to be of age (according to the laws of their country of origin). If the user is lying on her older to access your blog, it will not be your problem.
2 - On the other hand, regarding the content itself, be especially careful with regard to all minors, avoiding pornographic material which include people who are younger or in appearance.
3 - Check the contents of your political platform for blogging and also publishing the conditions set by your hosting. In many cases the hosting service providers do not allow pornographic, violent, etc.. As for the platforms, Blogger, p. for example. does support sexually explicit content on blogs it hosts.
4 - Enable some marks on your blog for parental control software easily detect what kind of content is on your website. Remember in the title or description of your website or blog your expressions such as "adult content" "sexually explicit" "blog for adults" or other, never hurts.
5 - If your website, blog or forum preserved personal data of users who discuss aspects of their sex lives and those users can be identified or at least identifiable, you are holding personal data protected especially with all the legal implications involved, and that you try. Most notable is that you have to activate a series of enhanced measures to protect such data.
6 - In connection with this, some comments, some pictures, some videos in which people appear in erotic poses or making pornographic activity, could seriously damage his image and his honor. Make sure you have the express written consent of affected, especially in the case that distribute and produce such material. If the material is supplied and leaving you unharmed on these issues, hunky-dory.
7 - Offers easy and clear for your users to report illegal or inappropriate content directly. Similarly, reporting to authorities any unlawful actions of users within your site.
