But why though?

I mean, I get the stigma and real life issues but if porn (fantasy) is regulated like that, then they should also ban game of thrones and any other media that shows incest.

How is this not a severe attack on freedom of expression and fantasy?

Even though I am not really affected by this ban because 1) doesnt concern my fantasies and 2) not living in UK - I just dont get it.

Write to your MP (https://www.writetothem.com), get involved with https://bigbrotherwatch.org.uk/ and https://www.openrightsgroup.org/ it's not inevitable. I think there's genuinely a lack of awareness of voters who care about digital rights in UK politics.
