Readers Respond to Porn Ban and Submit Their Harlem Shake Videos
Last week on Try2 commenters discussed a potential country-wide ban on porn by Iceland. If the ban comes to fruition, Iceland will be the first Western country to censor the buying or downloading of porn online. Some of our readers argued that porn encourages violence against women and hoped to see similar bans such as this one in other countries in the future. Other readers doubted the ability of the government to truly censor all online porn, and argued that attempting to do so would be an ineffective solution to a problem that could be solved with better parenting.
Earlier this month, an Applebee's server was fired for posting a snarky customer's comment online. This week, an OBGYN received flack for similarly using social media to vent about a patient on Facebook. While the doctor didn't technically violate HIPPA, many of our readers believed she still violated the spirit of the law by posting sensitive information about the expecting mother's previous experience with childbirth. Others backed up the doctor's right to voice her frustration online.
