Didnt they already have checks where you have to enable porn via the internet provider? If that failed these things will also fail. And the people which cant circumvent it will just watch twitch streamers or look at instagram. What would be funny if most sites refuse to comply and then they have to block them in the UK. And they will have to back peddle, even as an adult I dont feel inclined to get a camera, special government id which usually costs money or give every site creditcard info.
They already do (enabled by default) but the new law goes much further. It has the wide reaching power to protect women and children and that includes preventing children from accessing age restricted digital content and ensuring that the person viewing the content matches the photo ID on file for that individual. It's to stop someone 18 or over doing the check and then handing over the phone/computer/controller to someone under 18.
As a side note, I noticed recently that one brand of webcam is being sold in Europe with "Face ID" attached to its description. Coincidence?
So that camera checks regulary while using it that the right person is on the phone or pc? Wouldnt be surprised if they then can also see via the iris reflection what you are looking at. Either way I think this sounds so intrusiv and annoying even for adults that it will probably flop like it should. And amazon doesnt have any cameras big brands pushing that here at least not in the title.
