Not a great comparison--a better one would be reading something like Playboy in public, if the cover were no more "scandalous" than the cover of a smutty romance novel. In this case, other people know what you're doing.

If you're watching a video and no one can see the screen (and you're not gooning it crazy style) then there's no problem, and no controversy--you're being discreet.

Well, we're contrasting.

Essentially it would be less problematic, in your opinion?
