Having even one piece of mandatory unremovable software implies a whole chain of removed software freedom. Might be useful to dig into this and see who's pushing it - Lord Cass again?
Indeed. But this already has happened for most people. All non-jailbroken iphones and most Androids cannot have their bootloader unlocked, and even if they can, the stuff you can run is often still substantially controlled by Google.
Though in theory this can also be done without involving the OS at the device driver level. It's not hard to imagine a CNN running inside your display controller to detect a bbox and blur out the nudity. It'd still suck and be a middle finger to the owner, but I don't feel like this is much worse than what's already there. Given the popularity of porn, I can easily imagine this sparking a general public sentiment against all this nonsense.
These puritan clowns would first need to define what constitutes "nudity". But then this entire endeavour is just another pretext to increase digital control. The ambiguity of "nudity" only helps their cause.

Now you can be running late in your morning routine while still keeping in touch with loved ones and business colleagues.

Not everything needs a software based solution. When it comes to nudity I believe that the best way to prevent the spread of nudity is to stop it at the source, right there at the genitals, with physical coverings. This way the nudity is blocked before it has the opportunity to become a victim of mass-dissemination.

I wonder if tattooing the EURion constellation (1) near my genitals would prevent it from being photographed.
Or, if it would break face recognition systems... (the one tattooed near the face)

Maybe, you know it when I see it?
Fat bodies in cold country.

Or better, at the destination. If we just blind everyone, nudity ceases to be a problem.
