Pornhub’s homepage now displays a message to North Carolina users explaining the company’s decision to stop operating in the state — just as it has in all other states that passed similar age verification legislation.
Good I hope they do that in any country/state which does this shit, so these idiots get voted out. And no idea how pornhub thinks how device based adult verification should happen, that would literaly require a chip in your pc or an external ID reader and the chip could probably be tracked by most websites then and the ID reader would also cost money. If parents allow their kids to browse the internet unsupervised to watch that stuff its their problem not the governments. And then I rather get a vpn and pay monthly so I dont have to give ID to every adult site and can also safely use torrents.
Even if they make vpns not work, most countries still only block sites via dns, so unless they block sites some other way. It should be quite easy to still visit sites which wont comply with these ridiculous demands like face cams lol. And plenty of sites you usually cant even find with google anymore because of copyright stuff. Like planetsuzy.org.
But the UK is a good example of peak clownworld hopefully the rest of the EU will not be that retarded.
Banning vpns doesn't work as it is core tech on how banking networks work. They will not migrate to any "state approved" tech as banking tech is so ancient that it will throw a hissy fit if you even dare look funny at the ancient server in the corner. Same with banning encryption because storing CC info in plain text is a wonderful idea.
You cannot regulate vpn traffic as it just looks like normal encrypted traffic. The only reason that sites can detect a vpn is being used is because the traffic comes from a known vpn host. Any system can function as a vpn with few lines of code. They had more success banning alcohol than they will ever have with banning vpns
