Google has announced their new Adult Content Policy for Blogger...
Starting March 23, 2015, you won't be able to publicly share images and video that are sexually explicit or show graphic nudity on Blogger.
Note: We’ll still allow nudity if the content offers a substantial public benefit, for example in artistic, educational, documentary, or scientific contexts.
Changes you’ll see to your existing blogs:
If your existing blog doesn’t have any sexually explicit or graphic nude images or video on it, you won’t notice any changes.
If your existing blog does have sexually explicit or graphic nude images or video, your blog will be made private after March 23, 2015. No content will be deleted, but private content can only be seen by the owner or admins of the blog and the people who the owner has shared the blog with.
They also explain how a blog can be exported, presumably for use should you wish to change hosts.

Unfortunately, one man's art is another man's porn - so if you run a photography blog or just have images taken on the beach during your holidays you might want to back-up your data or recheck its contents.

The problem with google taking over pr0n isn't the product itself, or even the name of the product which will probably have the oo in google replaced with a nice pair of (or maybe two goatse who knows)
The problem with google is it'll take over the biz, push all the competition out, then "pull a reader" three years later discontinuing it, and then generations of teen boys will have to grow up with no idea what the fun parts look like.

It doesn't matter in the long run... porn routes around damage.
That is all.

Oh, they will find out all right what the fun parts look like, and it won't be in a virtual system, either!
The parents of teenage girls will soon be doing whatever it takes to get the distractors back online.
How many gallons per minute of human sperm does the porn industry divert from its "natural" course, anyway? Anyone hazard a guess?

They'll have to start over again with ANSI & ASCII porn.
