    Our education system generally doesn't work and you get a sex drive before your 18 and IIRC the age of consent is 16.

    It would be inconsistent for the state to ban all sex education sites for those under 18, but teach it in school earlier than that (and yes, age of consent being 16 is also an inconsistency here).

    The network admins at those places should be doing a better job at blocking access to it from the company network rather than leaving it up to the ISP to do their job for them.

    If I were living in the UK, I'd have a hard time fapping. No wait, I have a solution.

    it just seems pointless, those age clarification things are so pointless and so is this bill. I think a lot of people won't read it and will think that means that pornhub will be getting blocked.

    i wonder how that works with sites like imgur then? they dont do an age verification as far as i know, also reddit, has a lot of porn subreddits, im curious as to how this bill would work with sites that have porn on them, but are not porn sites.
    i never got an age verification when going to pornhub. boobpedia, yup, but not pornhub

    The thing with that is that you can't block it. Not all of it. And whatever you can block, it can be circumvented. Easily.

    Blocking it at the ISP level is a little trickier, but still isn't significant. It can still be easily bypassed. This is a waste of time and resources for everyone involved.

    Well, clearly, pornhub isn't a porn site.

    If you haven't noticed, age verification is very easy to fake.

    For example, if you check my profile, you'll note that I'm nearing my second birthday. Goo goo ga gee.

    Again, it's assumed that the Uk government means something more than "You 18? Ok No"

    Political correctness? This "protect the children" angle comes from conservatives.

    Both sides of politics are in favour of this kind of regulation in most countries actually.

    Sorry but that kind of argument doesn't fly. Are you saying that 15 and 14 year olds aren't experimenting sexually? If they are, they sure as hell need access to some sort of non-judgemental advice they may not be able to get from parents about healthy and safe practices.

    Individuals under the age of consent may also be confused about their sexuality and need somewhere they can, again, not be judged but get impartial advice that doesn't make them feel that there is something wrong with them or how they feel.
    I don't know the recipe for success, but I know that the recipe for failure is trying to please everyone.

    Forum stupidity at its finest:

    oh cmon, who is going to go visit a porn site and enter their real age? look how many kids got a Facebook account, which is against their ToS if under age. It makes absolutely no difference, its stupid and just shows how oppressive conservatives are being. Theresa may's sense of justice seems more like vengeance.

    So these are the important issues they were so hellbent on keeping a word on after the Brexit?

    Jokes aside; seems rather pointless.

    Honestly this is a good thing. The first important step towards banning the whole internet so that 14 year olds can't jerk it to video. /s

    Assuming that this was to work as an idea i.e. no 14yo clicking "I'm 18, i promise, swer on me mum" there's the sheer number of websites that offer porn in one way or another. I'm looking forward to how they plan to actually go through all of them.

    As I understand it porn sites will be asked to verify your age using a passport/drivers licence etc... Because having peoples personal information on hundreds of insecure databases is such a top notch idea.

    This is the problem. The people banning this shit are 10 or 20 years behind the rest of us. Pirate bay and kickass was blocked by ISP's in UK, how many of us has that stopped? Around 10% to 20%? All it takes is a simple google search to find proxies.

    It's a sad state of affairs when people making laws on technology don't even understand such technology and are adamant it's witchcraft that makes the magic internet box work.
