What about sexual and emotional education in schools?
The people who really think of age verification as effective measures tend to also be against having those in schools in the first place.
That would involve cutting 0.001% of the road budgets… Nope!!
Can we not? Can parents just take care of their kids like they have for thousands of years instead of futility trying to babyproof the internet for a minority of people? Jesus.
So there are laws that people agree with that say people under 18 cannot buy/see porn at the store. What makes this any different
Probably the bigger issue is the centralization of the internet
If we would have some more decentralized way of consuming content, then it would be harder to censor or control it
The internet nowadays is essentially just google, facebook, and pornhub
So applying a rule you can just target one company which will comply anyway because this is communism
I believe the responsibility should be on the parents to keep their children from viewing porn before they’re 18. Not the government. I also believe there should be at least some control over what minors have access to. Will it ever be 100%? Nope. All we can do is the best we can do
Basically PH and other xxx sites need you to verify your identity by uploading your ID. It’s what should be unconstitutional and a violation of privacy.
It’s like mandating all cars need to have an ignition interlock because some people drive drunk.
