Your problems with porn are not my issue.
Your welfare is not my priority.
I work on this project for my own amusement.
I am not your friend.
If there are ways to improve the software / issues with the software, I am
listening at jvnnvt@gmail.com and the ourlastpornblocker Subreddit.
Thank you for your time.
March 2018, I was dealing with a break up off a nasty relationship, and I was using porn to feel less bad/pain/hurt/etc.
When I listened to my favorite music, I noticed I felt good off that. As music doesn't come with the dangers that porn use brings, I thought it would be cool if, whenever I went to a porn site (which was frequent during that time), I instead was shown my favorite music.
This technology didn't exist. I was in college studying computer science (and astronomy), and I thought I could try to build this kind of porn blocker.
The PorNo! Chrome Extension was released in July 2018. The PorNo! Android app was released in January 2019.
No. I don't need to explain myself.
If you're someone who wants to collaborate with the hopes of turning this into a business, however: in terms you'll understand, this segment of the market doesn't offer opportunity for a steady and lucrative income stream.
Additionally, the past, current, and future users of this idea have paid enough of a price with their time and lives.
Finally, I wouldn't like it if people looked at me as "a person who is comfortable taking money from people who have problems with porn."
(If you want to send me money anyways, you're welcome to sponsor this project or hit my Paypal directly. Thank you 🔥)
