This week, (click here) we announced a change to Blogger’s porn policy stating
that blogs that distributed sexually explicit images or graphic nudity
would be made private.
We’ve received lots of feedback about making a policy change that impacts longstanding blogs, and about the negative impact this could have on individuals who post sexually explicit content to express their identities.
We appreciate the feedback. Instead of making this change, we will be maintaining our existing policies....
I don't know how all that came to pass with Blogger, but, it was completely out of character by Google when it comes to the open forum of Blogger.
Google does a great service to the people that access Blogger. It is a place to start for many that may go on to build their own blogs and income. Blogger provides the opportunity to earn real money if that is what they want.
For someone like me is the fact these entries are as permanent as Google's commitment to Blogger. By permanent, I mean, there is the capacity of this server. Google has one of the best servers in the world. Having Blogger within the control of Google provides a great deal of reassurance to the permanence of these entries.
Time will go by and there will be changes in society and the business of computers and the internet and someday Blogger may become obsolete and the information may become too ancient to be a part of the real world. But, for now working with Blogger is the best option I can have to participate in any discussion.
I choose to not receive income to make a statement about the entries. I do this for myself, but, also being conscience of the enjoyment of others in coming to this blog. I sincerely believe people want to read about my ideas and opinions I would like to think it makes the world a little bit better. In that it has become a part of me and my world.
I thank Google for their fairness and commitment to Blogger. They are great. (Tears in my eyes as I write this,)
