The poet’s line “we read the map of another’s silence” is a fitting metaphor for how recommendation systems navigate private desires on adult platforms.

Everyone in the room shifted when the regulator’s email pinged our inboxes—sudden age-verification mandates had just been detailed, and overnight our distribution plans felt obsolete.
