YouTube Cracks Down on Porn

A sad day for cash-strapped porn enthusiasts: YouTube is cracking down on porn content — even the soft-core variety.

The site is launching what it calls a "stricter standard for mature content," which will presumably affect enterprising porn stars advertising their personal websites with softcore clips from upcoming videos.

No word as to whether the digital recordings of go-go-boy performances from L.A. to Rio will be snatched.

Oh well, there's always tube8.com. (And you may content yourself with YouTube's many quasi-porn offering, of which the above is a ripe example. Filth, as Tom Lehrer reminded us, in the mind of the beholder.)
