  • “Three British teens—two 14-year-olds and one 13-year-old—have proposed an idea for a new type of condom that could detect sexually transmitted diseases amongst intimate partners … The proposal won the trio the top prize in the U.K.’s TeenTech Awards, and they have already reportedly been approached by condom companies.”

  • “Tumblr was revolutionary for so many women like me and others who felt disconnected to mainstream porn and found self discovery, affirmation, and connection within its platform.

The government plans to use age-verification in order to prevent under 18s accessing pornography sites online, but only 83% of parents support the initiative, according to research by Internet Matters. Out of those who oppose the government scheme, 30% said it is because they would not trust age-verification companies with their data.”

She’s also a vocal skeptic of Kamala Harris and the presidential hopeful’s prosecutorial past. “I’m not for Kamala Harris, because she’s very anti-sex work,” Hartley said. “She’s a prosecutor. She supported SESTA/FOSTA, the anti-sex-trafficking bill.””
