Porn is creeping into Twitter’s new Vine video-sharing app
Are you sitting down, because we’ve got some shocking news: People are putting porn on a new part of the Internet! Twitter’s Vine video-sharing app is already reportedly swamped with exhibitionists and smut enthusiasts, and developers are struggling to respond. Users can flag inappropriate videos using Vine’s mobile app, which will eventually generate a warning screen that users must click through before the offending video plays.
Twitter is reluctant to censor the posts, however, since the social Web tends to value freedom more than modesty on its sharing platforms. Until the company works out its skin-flick issue, though, it’s safe to say that Vine probably isn’t an appropriate all-ages experience. [Source]
