I know I'm banging on the same drum here, but every website, every search engine, every private chat or e-mail server might potentially be a host for pornographic content. These laws are a recipe for requiring ID to access the internet at all. This isn't about protecting children: it's about stripping you of your anonymity, and the right needs to stop encouraging it.
That's exactly the direction the UK is heading with their requirement for Government photo ID and live facial recognition system they favour for implementation next year for anything not "safe for kids". People have mistakenly believed this is just for pornography but they'll be in for a shock when a wide range of websites will have to comply.
