Its funny how much reddit pretends red states are backwards for doing this, but Europe is starting to implement the same rule.

This is gonna be like when they banned piratebay in the UK.
You don't even need a VPN to get around it, just go to any of the dozens of piratebay mirror sites that aren't banned.

There are always Redditors who can't help but make it sound like it's the end of the world that a [thing] is happening:
"This will literally kill people and make others far right terrorists".
It's obviously stupid and won't work, no need to loose your mind over it though.

Yeah. The generation that doesn't know what a torrent is.
That said, how are they going to stop Groomercord? They aren't, are they...
Sending everyone in the UK to the dark web is pretty awesome though. That place is about to become comfy as frick.

These guys would be okay with it if it was to stop racists

Exactly. If this was a requirement that all social media sites verify users legal name and address so that the bobbies could uncover and prosecute who Tweeted something naughty like "[insert black footballer] should move back to [black shithole] if he thinks the UK has rampant white supremacism" then they'd support it 100%. But, instead, it's measure to limit (of course it's not unbeatable) children's access to porn so it's literally the Holocaust again.

If you actually give these clowns your details, make sure you hand over your testes as well.
I don't care if it's illegal. Breaking the law is awesome. (Need a Bender from Futurama emoticon here)
Also IIRC Pornhub own the verification service so they're making bank on this.

'Robustly' verify sounds ominous. They're going to send those turbocute butch bobbies around to check your porn license, aren't they?

Always reading sneed about how the UK is broke and has no money for defense or NHS but apparently there is infinite money to try to police the internet and send a dozen bobbies out to arrest people for being against child r*pe

I'd have to double-check, but I think I've got about 40-50 GBs of golden age 90's-early00's content.

Reddit sending its best:
The answer to every single one of these is "So what?". I don't even know what else to say here. But, let's consider the first one for example: If the website wants to verify your ID exclusively through a credit card, it can!
Oh, man, that's so bad because like... what if... uh, you don't have one? Then you'd have to go to another porn site that used a different method. And wouldn't the site just pick whatever method allowed the most people to use their site? Why would they restrict it to credit card owners when even those without can still be valuable to advertise to and track the data of?

Lol, I don't know either. ChatGPT probably wrote this shit, to be honest. My previous answer of "So what?" applies to it, but if I had to guess, a 'hobbyist' might have a pornographic site that's not for profit. Say, they review s*x toys or have a blog of their s*x life or create amateur porn just for fun and don't charge for it. In that case, how are they supposed to have a system for verifying age since they wouldn't have access to banking information or something? Maybe?

Just use ZK-proofs to prove you are over 18, there's no privacy tradeoff then and the tech is there. Of course all porn sites will just block the UK instead. Have fun brits
