I think you are being voted down but I disagree. I opened the article before the tag was added and although I very much appreciate the author's point, I think the added tag is necessary. Would be hard to argue any form of nudity appearing on my computer screen even it were an artwork I feel. The tag has been added. Society is tricky, nudity on the internet more so.
For those who are now fearful to click the link, its an opinion piece about the given topic, and it's illustrated with a stock photo of a nude pregnant woman. The author's point is that this nudity is not pornography.
So it's not "adult content", but probably "NSFW" unless you work in a maternity hospital.
Just as a comparator, the Wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pregnancy leads with a clothed pregnant woman (unlike the pages on e.g. labia, penis, anus, breast, which lead with a direct shot of the body part), and overall that page has photos or illustrations of 4 clothed and 3 nude women (and a CT scan volume render, does that count as nude or not?)
As an European with non-censored History books in my teenage years, that nudity was... boring. Women just lying in a bench with... dull, bland, faded out colours. I would need far more to get laid.
Yet another regulation to control people. Taking your freedom away one law at a time...
Can't imagine what life in 2050 will look like. By that point, you will have a mandated government inspector living in your home to make sure you comply
Its pretty clear at this point that people want this kind of control implemented, its in the ”zeitgeist”. I have not figured out why, but it does seem that people are more scared then ever.
Its a bit weird on HN where people generally understand this problem regarding privacy, but in other topics like this one they act like the general populace ”put the speeders in jail!”
The cost of browsers not having extremely-basic things that they either started to implement then abandoned in a nigh-useless state (login, frames) or never even tried to have but really, really should have once it was clear "web apps" were here to stay (datasource-backed lists and tables, table sorting without more custom JS than a sort function, drag-n-drop) is truly enormous. Who knows how many millions of person-hours.
