Sweden's 'Consent App' for Mitigating Draconian New Anti-Rape Law Under Fire - SWEDEN YES!

The app uses mobile bank ID technology to secure consent before intercourse by means of digital contract, which may reduce the risk of being sentenced to jail for having sex, which will have become imminent as all intercourse without an explicit consent agreement is about to become illegal in Sweden.

According to the Aftonbladet tabloid daily, the app was instantly criticized for allegedly making it harder for women to "regret" and have second thoughts during the intercourse.

Ok, so basically an app for the iPhone has been released that uses electronic ID to sign an agreement between two consenting adults as to whether sexual intercourse should commence or not. I have been considering creating an app like this as a joke before, but appearantly some wise lawyer proceeded to create the app as a serious endeavour.

What is the userbase of Kiwi Farm's thoughts about consent apps?

Bonus question: Since the application costs money, would the app developer qualify as some kind of e-pimp?

So now the government isn't just peeping all your online shit, they get to know when, where & who you had sex with. But hey, the only people who have a problem with this are people with something to hide, right?

Orwell should've bumped 1984 up by about fifty years. Get ready, motherfuckers, ain't no brakes on this Stalinist ride.

Am I reading this correctly? Feminists are against an app that allows for mutual consent because it makes it harder to accuse men of rape?

Why not just go full Quaker and outlaw all sex at that point?

 

[Derp Potato]

God damn, Sweden.

Why stop at a contract between adults to fuck? There clearly should be a third-party present at all times to ensure it truly isn't rape.

Also must solely be missionary position.

it offers a solution to a problem, you're not supposed to fix problems, that gets rid of victimhood

Sweden deserves this.

They can do what they did in the 50's when they decided to study and improve the common kitchen, so plop a dude with a clipboard on a lifeguard chair in the room, he'll silently take notes on everything that goes on.

Wasnt this in an episode of black mirror?

This app comes in different languages like Pashto,Urdu,Arabic etc?
Or members of religion of peace can use as an excuse the lack of understanding?

All you'd have to do, by my reckoning, is get on the other person's phone and use it to consent to sex with yourself behind their back.

 

[AnOminous]

you are way more likely to actually be raped as a man, by another man, than be falsely accused of rape by a woman. Get your priorities straight and don't stick your dick in crazy.

You're thinking Shakers. It's an understandable mistake, since Shakers no longer exist because they didn't reproduce.

Wow, seems like swedish women are really horrible creatures.

No, Sweden as a whole is just that retarded.

This app and the new laws aren't meant for them, the actual law is meant for law abiding citizens. Reason would suggest that real rapists don't care if they commit an additional fineable misdemeanor when they're out raping.

A funny thing happened recently that showed how out of touch the politicians are with reality and how up their own asses they are. One party suggested that immigrants should be deported/denied citizenship if they raped or murdered, which is entirely reasonable and is actually perfectly lawful but not always put in practice, another party responded smugly with "heh, but of course you want to keep the SWEDISH murderers and rapist?" and voters from left to right was like "no, we don't want them either".
The right probably got themselves some new voters that day.

Hmmmm. Sputnik News isn't exactly reliable, and secondly, the app can probably be circumvented by forcibly applying your partner's finger to the reader before getting it on.

 

[Silence of the Troons]

The Swedish consumer agency has received around 70 complaints about the app

Sputnik are largely correct in this case as they appear to have based most of their information on this article. However, they are dishonest in two aspects as a) they claim the law has caused "remarkably little debate in Sweden", despite the fact that it has received a considerable amount of attention and criticism here (notably from the Council on Legislation) and b) the tone of the article makes it seem like the app is more popular than it actually is (only around 200 people had downloaded it when the Aftonbladet article was published).

We demand consent be explicitly demonstrated. But you're a monster if you make an app that does just that.

They're only mad because there's a "no take backsies" clause.
