Hi y’all, there have been a lot of legislative changes around the world that make it harder for this blog to keep operating as is. Age verification requirements keep being introduced in different countries and it would be cost prohibitive for a small site like mine to use most of those services. The other option is I just start blocking IP addresses from certain countries which isn’t great, either., as that currently includes much of the US, the UK, Australia and (soon) the EU. I don’t have the money or the power to fight any of this.
I think I’ve found a solution, though, in retreating behind the wall of Google’s blogger. I’m going to try to transfer this domain to a Blogger account in the next few days and set it up to auto redirect. I’m not an expert at this but I think it will result in the bodyswapfiction.com/enter page ceasing to work and you will need to go to the homepage bodyswapfiction.com.
You will have to log in with a Google account, which has age verification, in order to view the site. I don’t like it either but it’s the only way I can continue to put out captions. Of course, this means I’m at the mercy of Google.
If this all goes haywire, I will be available at bodyswapstories.com so look for any updates there. You can also sometimes find me on Reddit and DeviantArt (softcore only)
UPDATE: The other option is that this becomes a text only site, which seems to avoid the regulations.
UPDATE: I’m pausing the move for the time being and we’ll see how things shape up.
