Stone the crows. How will this go down in Bali?

The Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs reports Bonnie Blue to British authorities over the insult to the Indonesian flag
Bonnie Blue Disrespects the Indonesian Flag is unacceptable.

She is behaving recklessly; the flag represents state symbol of authority. I suspect she has consulted her legal team, which might explain why she feels confident doing this publicly under UK law. She has even stated she will do it in front of the Indonesian Embassy in London. AFAIK, the UK has no specific law criminalising the public misused or even the tearing or destruction of a foreign national flag. Also she might gain financially as it is another publicity stunt for her.

If she did it in Indonesia, this justifies deportation or even punishment. But visa abuse alone is already a valid reason for deportation. But hosting an adult private party with consenting adults, where no one is harmed, no victims should not be grounds for punishment.

Another party in the style of Bonnie Blue e.g creating adult content for OF social media, but this time the French model Melisa Mireille Jeanine is using Indonesian “Gojek” themed concept involving another French participants and one Italian. They are reportedly being arrested, possibly because a few people who do not get invited are jealous and reported them to authorities .

There are laws regarding pornography and sex outside of marriage, but the issue may lie more with the laws themselves than with the individuals involved, since the activities took place in a private setting. All participants were consenting adults. This news are spread in social media but these are a few news from media outlets.

“They have misused the visa they have to make content in Bali.”

So if porn is not the issue, what about all the content creators who semi live on the island and get paid by IG, YouTube, TikTok, etc?

“They have misused the visa they have to make content in Bali.”

So if porn is not the issue, what about all the content creators who semi live on the island and get paid by IG, YouTube, TikTok, etc?

Well. many adult content creators from countries like the US, Australia, Canada, Japan, Korea, China travel to European cities such as Budapest, Prague, Barcelona, Madrid, Paris, Berlin, Moscow, Kiev etc using tourist visas, including access through the Schengen Area. The same is true with the other way around. Some critics argue that this is a misuse of visas, as they enter with tourist visas and these individuals are effectively working, earning income, and not officially registering their activities to pay the tax.

However, others point to the concept of “gedoogbeleid”, where certain actions are technically illegal but are tolerated in practice. In these cases, authorities may choose not to strictly enforce the law, especially when there are no clear victims and the cost of prosecution may outweigh any financial or social benefit to the government .Law enforcement may also be hesitant due to potential public backlash, with public / taxpayers accusing them of spending time on less critical matters with no real victims instead of prioritising more urgent issues like knife crime.
