I've said before, I think selective internet bans are a very slippery slope. No matter how you feel about porn, I think stopping this ID law is overall good for internet freedom. I don't like porn, and I think it can be monumentally harmful. I think the government being able to set requirements to visit websites is more harmful.
I also think it's kind of ironic everyone (rightly) rails against internet ID, and idiots who push that nonsense, but often have no problem with porn restrictions.
It's a parent's job to stop kids from watching porn, not the government's. And the government will almost never make the situation better, no matter how negligent the parent. We know this shit. We see it time and time again. Not sure why people are so keen on porn ID laws. In any other context, they go against everything most of us here believe in.
Because people believe that restrictive ID laws which abolish anonymity which will stop people using the sites in fear of being hacked and doxxed (a la Ashley Madison). Plus making it impossible to function as a site and remain profitable, effectively banning them in all but name. While also abolishing every other aspect of sexual outlet outside of the bedroom with any act requiring more than one consenting adult without payment to be seen as legal will somehow end the demographic issues we have in society and return society to conservative monogamy, relationships for everyone and the two parent, two child household utopia. It won't. All it will do is drive everything to the dark web or create sexually frustrated single men with nothing to lose considering the current state of the dating market.
The people who should be doing the job are parents, I agree. The state should not be taking over the job of parent and treating us all like children.

This is really all it ever is. Its them considering something a societal cancer, and then trying to make the government ban it.
You'd think they'd have read up how well Prohibition worked. Its even a nearly 1:1 comparison considering the damage alcohol does and still does daily to everyone, yet we realized banning it didn't accomplish anything.
Except this time their get out of jail card is to claim that the sites voluntarily shut down access in their state and it's not an actual ban. They won't mention the bureaucracy, red tape and impossible requirements they implemented that led to this situation.
Exactly, and then the whole time position themselves as "the good guys" because they said the word "CHILDREN" and that instantly makes them the morally superior.
Because when you say think of the children, you are always in the right everytime forever and anyone who opposes you wants children raped and groomed and ruined.
Because I grew up in Moonshine country where people have actual storied histories barely a generation removed explaining how they got away with ignoring it or dodging it, and in turn spending more time in the presence of criminals to assist in those endeavors.
Nascar and stock racing alone got its start by an entire criminal industry forming in response to it, and that's just a single operation in one area of the country.
The people who were causing problems due to alcohol didn't and weren't going to stop just because of a law, all it accomplished was punishing innocent folks from having freedom. No different than "common sense" gun laws, which I'm sure you'll whine "bubububut that's different!"

That's it. It's nothing to do with kids. It's the fucking tradcuck trash thinking they can pump up birth rates by taking away all other outlets.
It's unfortunate this idea is being downvoted because there is a push by both sides of the political spectrum to shut down all avenues of sexual outlets for single men and restrict the act to be defined as two (or more) individuals without payment in a private dwelling. Whether feminist or conservative. The "won't somebody think of the children" aspect of it has always been a tried and true argument from emotion to get something banned. It's happening now with vapes because children could get access (despite age restrictions and ID requirements already in place) and the same will happen to pornography and every other sexual outlet.
Like I say, what happens with all the frustrated men who can't compete in the dating market and have nothing to lose? Will they all be sent into the meat grinder of war?
Feminist women (why do I have to self-censor when the stormfaggots are rampant) have a plan, it's called cut them off from banks and make them starve to death.

But prohibition did reduce crime, reduce deaths from alcohol & associated illnesses.
Why do you feel that banning it "didn't accomplish anything"? Is that based on data?
