Thai police launched small scale arrests of a few sex workers in Pattaya before the arrival of 5,000 American sailors on USS Abraham Lincoln who have spent nine months at sea.

Before their arrival Pattaya's police force has claimed to clamped down on the sex industry, with at least 40 people arrested in nightlife raids over the weekend.

Anek Srathongyoo, the city's police chief, said law enforcement agencies have been ordered to step up security measures to prevent undesirable situations.

Poramase Ngampiches, Pattaya's mayor, said in a Facebook post that the city would welcome the troops and urged people to treat them well. He said:

They come to relax because it's been almost 280 days since anyone came ashore. Our preparations will focus on safety and ensuring fair pricing, so we don't take advantage of them.

Meanwhile US naval authorities have also done a bit of token probitiond too. Servicemen have been banned from both water sports such as jet skiing and parasailing, and consuming cannabis, which is largely legal in Thailand.

The mayor instead said he hopes they'll take in the city's other sites, from malls to temples. As if!

The sailors have reportedly also being banned from Soi 6 which is famous for its large choice of short time bars. This ban was the source of a false rumour that Soi 6 had been closed to everyone by Pattaya for the duration of the naval visit.

Members of Australia's Parliament are considering a prohibition on pornography depicting strangulation and choking.

Tanya Plibersek, a Labor MP and the social services minister for the government of Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, announced the government's intent over the weekend, with other leaders confirming the move. Plibersek sexplained:

There is something wrong with a situation where 60% of young people say they've experienced strangulation. This is not sex education. It's not real life.

A spokesperson for Prime Minister Albanese's office told News.com.au, The Albanese Government is deeply concerned about young people being exposed to sexual strangulation and other harmful behaviours through online content such as pornography.

Other reports indicate that Australian Attorney-General Michelle Rowland is working with Plibersek and other senior Labor and Liberal MPs to outlaw the practice and criminalize it.

Inspiration for the ban has been drawn from the United Kingdom. Parliament in the U.K. adopted amendments to a sweeping Crime and Policing Bill that outlawed depictions of strangulation in online pornographic content, even if the content is produced consensually between parties.

I am not sure that Australia or the UK have worked out the practicalities of such a ban. This material is commonplace and not website is going to trawl through all their videos to cut out such content so the only practical way to stop this on foreign websites is to block them all.
