Aussie Anti-Porn Rule Has Honeymooners Baring All Confused pair shows border officials nude shots Posted Oct 25, 2010 12:24 PM A controversial new rule requiring people entering Australia to declare any illegal porn they're carrying has confused many—especially one couple returning from their honeymoon.

"That has now been amended to read 'illegal pornography’”—which includes child porn, bestiality, sexual violence, and nonconsensual sex.
