  • SLR's deep learning model for an automated Japanese censoring

Philip
What's the point of censoring a US porn scene that is easily accessible in its original, uncensored form to all Japanese users by simply using a VPN?

    LordCrash A whole bunch of reasons I would assume: being able to advertise in ways and places that would not necessarily be legal if you're promoting uncensored content, being able to market to a substantially larger user base who has already lived with and grown accustomed to censored content, not limiting yourself to only users who will want to jump through the extra hoops to use a VPN and hope their payments will be accepted by payment brokers outside the country (and who would already be doing that anyway), to not do something of questionable legality (in Japan) or anger anyone who might otherwise be able to put a stop to any long-term plans to produce SLR JAV, to massively increase the video quantity available on the .jp site and be far more competitive in a market primarily centered on PPV scenes, etc.

    If anything I'm hoping that this will put the pressure on more JAV VR studios to upgrade their mostly-ancient rigs. I can usually look past the censorship/pixilation myself, but I can't really look past the 4k visuals that look straight out of 2019.

    Good to see things are moving forward with this, hopefully it means scenes with Japanese talent are coming at some point

    LordCrash So much for being a contract if they can be unconditionally cancelled. We need a plan for the releases that several months after being released ... all of a sudden "cannot be released," then taken down for compliance. If it takes 4 months for a film to release, it should take 4 months for a film to be unreleased. SLR's one-day-after-the-fact notice is not enough.

    To any admin, I hope you can start a dedicated thread for studios/videos that are on the chopping block (or formally under review) that gives us ample time to stream or download because I sure miss that beach scene from VRGoddess that I never got to see. πŸ˜” It will forever haunt me everytime something like this comes up. For all we know this could be the tip of the iceberg and the doomed failing of JAV VR porn on this site, one niche at a time. Next thing you know PlushiesVR is under review for depictions of bestiality.

    This doesn't make sense. If the performers don't raise objections within four months, the film can be released, but if they raise objections within the first two years, it cannot be released?

    What if the film is released after five months and then a performer objects during the 8th month? The film is pulled from sale?

    I think somebody is misinterpreting the law because that would not really be workable.

    Okay, here is a bit more of an explanation. The two years is only for the first two years after passing the law, as a transition period. But there still will be a one year time frame to halt distribution, according to this article.

    It seems to be enacted to protect women "forced" into performing by circumstances as well as through undue pressure.

    I have a lot of opinions on the subject of how performers are treated, having known several performers quite well in my younger days, and still maintaining friendships with many of them after they left that business (and other sex work as well).

    Most of my opinions run counter to my consumption. But they are still going to make the videos even if I don't buy them

    sickpuppies i have also grown accustomed to the censoring, especially since i have Jav models i really enjoy and now that they are in VR all i do is look at their breasts, ass, and face , pretty much everything else , as for the creampies i find it fun to see the cum peak out from behind that pixelation when it drips outπŸ€£πŸ˜…

      Bucket619 Haha yes! Same.

      If the girl is hot and talented (I'm looking at you, Nene Tanaka) I get super immersed in the scene that I forget to focus and get distracted by staring at her pixelated pussy. I know it's one of the benefits of VR (hard to focus your sight on the entire body like in 2D), but having excellent scripts also helps A LOT.

        Bucket619 I keep getting back to her, especially the scripted content. She's so... I don't know, man. I love her πŸ˜‚

        thatoculusdude oh yup those are the two i was talking about that i recently got with the scripts πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ™ŒπŸ» her light skin and her round breasts and something about her shoulder length hair is just damn gorgeous

        Yay... How to make it easier to make more content that is ruined by ridiculous censoring.... No thanks

        SLR can make it easier to decensor by using a specific kind of mosaic (non flickering at least) Anyway I hope the decensoring community comes up with a model to decensor VR jav soon.

          Bucket619
          Haha, right? That's the real money shot πŸ˜‰

          IRL I'm not just staring at their pu$$y either, it's a more rounded experience

          Denarius no business is possible for decensoring. It's absolutely illegal activity in Japan and they are going to come after you

            doublevr I wasn't talking about the JAV companies or SLR themselves decensoring the content. I meant that there are ways to make it easier for other people to do it by using a specific kind of mosaic.

            I don’t know but watching that pixaleted japanese porn is like saying I buy the Playboy because of the great interviews πŸ˜‰
