Most recently instituted Australian law needs that "illegal" porno be declared to customs upon entry to the country. AOL News reports that an Australian honeymoon vacation pair returning home for a life of domestic bliss was humiliated by customs agents who led them to believe the new regulation required them to show their nude honeymoon pictures. Now the pair is angry and Australia's Intercourse Party has a trigger to champion. Post resource - Australian anti-porn law compels couple to reveal nude photos by Personal Money Store.

Nude pictures from a honeymoon on an iPhone

The happy young couple did not want to break the law, and airport authorities were eager to enforce Australia's new anti-porn ordinance. But as news sources indicate, there is some confusion over exactly what the regulation entails. Airport arrival cards have been reworded due to the confusion, as it was later made clear that the intent of the regulation was not to invade upon the privacy of legal, consenting newlyweds. Now the card calls for "illegal" pornography to be announced: "child pornography, bestiality, explicit sexual violence, degradation, cruelty and rape," reports AOL News. Illegal pornography can lead to fines and possible imprisonment.
"(The couple was) on the beach, they were nude, they'd taken a photo of themselves on their iPhone having an embrace," according to a spokeswoman, Robbie Swan. She was speaking for the political party, the Australian Intercourse Party. "It had been not full on or anything, however when they'd gone through customs they'd asked what 'pornography' meant and the customs officer had said: 'Well, anything explicit'."

Anti-porn grievances go to the Sex Party

The anti-pornography regulation, introduced at the end of 2009, has caused Australian citizens to complain a ton to the Australian Intercourse Party, which is a libertarian political party and lobbyist group. The concept of "if in doubt, show it" has not been working. Invasion of privacy has already happened. The illegal pornographic material ought to be caught through the brand new law, says Home Affairs Minister Brendan O'Connor. The Sex Party is still quite angry about it.
The reason why the Sex Party doesn't like the law is because, "It is an incredible breach of people's privacy." This is what the leader Fiona Patten said. "If the aim is to stop child pornography, then this isn't going to achieve this."
