If Vine Is Adults Only, Then So Is All Of The Internet And My University Library

6a00d834515e0d69e2016763ac0acf970b-800wiMy old university's library was a den of pornographic filth, but no one ever considered shading the windows strip-club black because a few stragglers watched sex on public computers. Yet, that's precisely the odd logic that led video sharing app, Vine, to up its age rating to 17+ after users were found sharing naughty content. While we may not want to celebrate our porn-filled culture, restricting anything which may inadvertently lead to adult content logically puts us on the silly path toward blanket censorship.
