The German government is reportedly planning to reinstate a ban on bestiality, with fine of up to ?25,000 for all forms of sex with animals.

Parliament?s agriculture committee will discuss the necessary changes to the country?s animal protection code this week and they could become law as soon as mid-December, said the left-wing daily Die Tageszeitung.

Getting freaky with mankind?s furry friends has not been a punishable offence in Germany since 1969, according to the paper. But a national veterinary association has warned sexual abuse of animals is widespread, with zoophiles renting farms for erotic encounters and thousands of Germans trading tips on the internet.

Hans-Michael Goldmann, chairman of the agriculture committee, told Die Tageszeitung that the government aimed to forbid using an animal ?for individual sexual acts,? but it also wanted to outlaw pimping creatures to others.

Animal rights activists in Germany have long demanded the prosecution of bestiality ? currently it is only illegal if sexual acts cause considerable harm to the animal.

But the German zoophile group ZETA (Zoophiles Engaging for Tolerance and Enlightenment) announced it would mount a legal challenge should a ban on bestiality become law.

?Mere concepts of morality have no business being law,? ZETA chairman Michael Kiok told Die Tageszeitung.

They'll ban loli next cause this is the way it went in the UK.

NO!!! Not my loli! ;____;

Nah, won't happen.

I sure hope not.

a few people said that in the UK after it happened in Canada and Australia.

*activates overseas shipping booster*

:laugh:

No, but really, I surely hope that's not gonna happen.

If it does, I'll be importing it from other European countries where it remains legal, dodging customs. :D

they could still do spot checks on mail/luggage coming in from other EU countries trust me i've thought of every method and it's always been a no go.

But... Enlightenment doesn't start with an A :p

This is just ****ed up. Can't believe people even think such things.

I was going more for the whole they said they would 'mount' a legal challenge. I was laughing about the word mount being in there. ;)

erm just been informed by a friend of mine who knows about this kinda thing and well Germany's CP laws cover drawn images i.e. loli.

Well, so far its never been enforced here for for loli afaik and I'm able to buy it here just fine.

I thought of anything that would specify it further, but I guess the dogs are sleeping tight.

Good on that I say.

Also that paragraph has some phrasing that actually leaves the door a little bit open fot interpretation.

Seeing how lolicon is traded here without problems, I take it it's de-facto legal.

Don't really care either way, imho CP and loli are two completely different things and I'm not gonna feel guilty of CP possession having harmless loli lol

Laws are good and fine, but damn, if one wouldn't see the difference, then that's just ridiculous. :)

anyone catch the "reinstate" part? As in it is was against the law before, but then someone complained, so they made it legal? weird.

1969, man... 1969.

    • Google pitches Spanner as one database for all AI agents with these new featues by Karthik Mudaliar Google Cloud is introducing new features within Spanner, its distributed database, as a place where enterprises should keep their data, using which AI agents could make smarter and better decisions. In a detailed blog post, Google highlighted quite a few features coming to Spanner, including relational data, graph relationships, vector search, key-value access, full-text search, and operational analytics together in one database architecture. Google says that today's systems aren't well-made for AI agents. There could be data that is present in one system, search indexes in another, embeddings in a vector database, and relationship data in a graph database. This fragmentation isn't great for AI agents to do their jobs because they don't have access to all of this data in one place. This is where Google is positioning Spanner as a solution. Spanner is already a globally distributed relational database with strong consistency, and Google wants its customers to see it as a broader data layer for AI applications. The company introduced something called Spanner Graph, along with integrated vector search, full-text search, a Cassandra-compatible key-value endpoint, and a columnar engine for analytical queries on operational data. Google also added that its ScaNN-powered vector search can support indexes with more than 10 billion vectors, while the columnar engine can make some analytical scans up to 200 times faster. All of this isn't just exclusive to the Google Cloud Platform, and there's support for multi-cloud as well. This comes via Spanner Omni, which Google says is a downloadable, containerized version of Spanner that can run on Kubernetes and in environments outside Google Cloud, including Microsoft Azure and AWS, and even on-premises infrastructure as well as edge deployments. Google says that customers who are interested in the full-featured edition should contact the company, and there's no word on commercial availability or separate pricing. Those interested can read the full blog by Google Cloud, which details these features individually.

    • They have lots of info on me, I have a facebook account and have done so for years, it was the thing to have then. My phone number is not on it. I don't have the Facebook app on my phone these days, just the messenger part, and only for a couple of people to contact me, most will text me via SMS or phone. I agree, Meta, like others, even without an account will know something about me. Just have to try and keep some things private Also, never saw the need for Whatsapp, people used to ask for me to join it, but as I said to them, I have SMS and a phone, use that, or email
