The mods in question were for having sex with literally anything that moves, including the animals

Some lady wants her elf character to have crudely animated sex with a low-res Skyrim mammoth? Off to the Tower with you

I'm fairly certain they have anti-bestiality laws over there. Which to me makes the other dude a snitch and a narc

It's a bit of an interesting legal question IMO. If it's illegal to perform bestiality, that clearly doesn't make it illegal to simulate it, you would need a separate law or clause to cover that. If it's illegal to record bestiality, same thing - simply having the code on your computer to animate characters fucking is not a recording, so if she doesn't have screen-captured footage she should be in the clear.

My IANAL opinion is that if the cops don't find video evidence (ie obscene pornography), and didn't catch her in the act of running the simulation (assuming that making such a simulation is also illegal), then they have no case. How can you prove that code on a computer was used for an illegal purpose if there's no evidence of the alleged illegal act being performed? Perhaps an "intent to ___" law could be invoked instead, but my gut tells me that there's no law making "intent to use SexLab" illegal.

(but of course this is reddit so I also assume this story is fake)

England's (derogatory) legal repression of sexuality and their brutally invasive police and surveillance has always fascinated. Oh, you're doing sex out of the missionary position with the lights on? That's a crown offense guv we're shipping you to australia! Fucking odd country.

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 20 points 2 years ago

I despise the anglosphere so much its unreal. An entire culture that's just the "no fun allowed" meme.

[–] Sinistar@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

The keeping her laptop thing is unfortunately the norm in western countries. They can't just copy the hard drives and give it back, they have to keep the "evidence" for the entire duration of the "investigation".

It's sick. "You can beat the rap but you can't beat the ride". The pigs can destroy your life just because you came under suspicion.

[–] Sinistar@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Tell me about it. In the US they can seize any cash you have and hold it indefinitely without trial - one more reason to go cashless I guess.

[–] Frank@hexbear.net 9 points 2 years ago

They can accuse your cash of a crime, then you have to prove that your cash didn't do crimes, and since that's stupid and impossible the cops just pocket it and use it to buy more cop toys. It's like the second largest dollar amount of theft after wage theft. utterly disgusting. They're literally highway robbers, excelt it's legal.

Let me guess, the mod in question just added a character that happened to be trans?

Or is it that modding is illegal in the UK?

[–] HumanBehaviorByBjork@hexbear.net 25 points 2 years ago (1 children)

the UK has incredibly restrictive obscenity laws concerning pornography.

Every time I wonder where amerikkka gets it from, I look at ukkk LMAO.

[–] theposterformerlyknownasgood@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago (2 children)

No it's a bestiality mod, where the player character is capable of engaging in sexual intercourse with animals. It is also a mod where the player can be the victim of sexual assault.

[–] Kaboom@reddthat.com 9 points 2 years ago

So probably sexlab defeat and the creatures mods. Bestiality isn't my cup of tea, but it's near the top of the most downloaded list for a reason.

Refreshing lack of people siding with the cops ITT becsuse of the nature of the mods in question.
