This is setting the stage for the Mark of the Beast where you won't be able to do any transaction without one. Most people will comply because they can't survive on their own, and they won't publicly complain because they don't like being in prison or suicided.
devil's advocate - 30 years ago it was much harder to find gay furry liberals roaming the streets, and every kid didn't have a hotline to his local Discord kitten-tender.
Are you over 18 years of age? [No], [YES!!! LET ME IN!]
Is sufficient to access hardcore tranny gay furry vore-vomit porn.
I'm still against digital ID, but even I can see there's a little disconnect there.
Using it to censor speech should make that party lose every election until their dissolution. But I guess they did the math and they've reached the point where the "asians" will carry them.
The hill I'm dying on is that a checkbox to confirm your age is and will always be fucking stupid, why even have it in the first place?
Sure, you can torrent porn but that doesn't apply to companies that produce and host these contents
And again, I am not for this, devil's advocate blah blah, but if digital ID is used to age gate porn, wouldn't that also mean trackers that has porn torrents would also be gated?
And how is it we can keep the illegal stuff mostly unsearchable on the open web, but legal porn has almost zero barrier to entry. That disconnect is what I’m pointing at.
Not really, I'm actually expecting this LESS to go like China, MORE on prohibition in 1920s America where we will get organised criminal enterprises selling unrestricted Internet access.
Because the issue here's they're stiffling supply, not the demand for it.
Are you the owner of this forum? How about i post comments on any fucking forum i want to and then you follow me around and down vote me and bitch about it? I like that idea better.
I can't believe we're in 2025 and people still think it was the tech companies that were censoring speech and not the deep state using the companies as cover
nah, kienan doesnt do that. must be just a random comment in passing.
he doesn't seem to be the guy who tries to deflect evil by making it avout left/right amerimutts/eurofags,
Well if they actually bann these too their pretense its to protect kids is worth even less, doubt most kids can even pay for vpn services. And even then this wont stop them completly either use the darknet or tor even tho thats too slow for videos probably. But good enough to find pics. But I see a lot of people moving outside the UK soon. Preferable some scandinavian or asian countries which dont have similar shit planned.
Yes, attack VPNs in such an incompetent way, you drag in COMPANIES using them too.
It's like the UK government is PLEADING for their own deaths, either figuratively or literally..

Yep, finally dealing with the sudden explosion of free online porn for decades is the mark of the beast.
Listen to yourself.
We all know why they want to get rid of it. They're desperate to stop the Rightward tide from rising ever again.

Yup, we age gate everything in society but

You shifted the argument.

Are you defending that position or just stating the obvious?

They will try. But all this mental illness we see in the world is a direct result of the internet. Interesting hill you all want to die onl
It's ok they can get a special business loicence on a special business internets.
Given their current track record, I bet they manage to fuck that up..
At what point would White Brits realize they've lost so much already that there is little more to lose by murdering everyone in power?
While this is true, you should still go back to ConPro and stay there, forever.

Europe once again trying to ruin it for the rest of us.
America started it when they didn't lay the smackdown on tech companies committing crimes against the people and breaking the constitution.
Euros could have used their laws better to stop that too.

Retarded Euro-comment.
Lol UK needs to stop being antisemitic. Most VPN are owned by Israeli companies
Be the problem and the solution.
vpns serve one singular purpose. to bundle the hundreds of open torrent connections into one and thus make your regular surfing more speedy.
pls only use it as utility, not as a safety line.
The UK is a third world shit hole.
wrong. the uk is the testing ground for the eu. whatever i mock them for is just policy that the eu wants to adopt.
protiip: if you vote against membership in the eu, all the parties that are pro-eu need to be disdandeb at the leat, preferably: hangings.
Makes Brexit more spicy.
As if that's ever going to manifest in any of the forms various groups were clamouring for.
"age verification lobby" jesus wept
They'll just block the connections too. Look at what happened with russia and china.
How long before some red state that has special protections for genital mutilation tries to copy this?
A few months ago? Mississipi did it for social media.
Of course kids can still be on social media with their parent's permission. Like before. Except now you must dox yourself.
Because of belgium.. we have battlepass and cash shop in every damn game now..
Can we not tariff and cut our alliance with the uk for this?? Uk is just a buncha faggots and muslims now.
