I used to accidentally find nudie mags in the woods with my friends. Why didn’t these guys do anything for me and my forest safety?
Kids these days will never get to experience the joy of finding woods porn.
Gen Z here. Only "age-inappropriate" things I found in the woods were condoms and syringes :(
When we were kids, we used to collect paper to get money for school trips and such. For us it was minly to find porn and find out who has a LOT of porn at home.
Wait, people would just give you their porn to recycle or whatever you did with the paper to turn it into school trips? You'd figure they'd be a bit more discreet in how they got rid of their porn, like hiding it in a box in the woods.
They didn't give a fuck. People who had porn back then had A LOT of porn. I assume they had multible subscriptions to get porn weekly. I assume, i can't remember they kinda hid it under some newspaper, but if you have one newspaper for every 10 porn magazines, it's kinda hard to hide.
Outside the box solution: don't age restrict access to porn. Every teenager is going to get it anyway.
Couldn't agree more if I cared to try.
Methinks this is much more about controlling and surveilling adults than "protecting" children from porn. If it was ever really about the latter at all.
It's about the latter but it doesn't have to work, just looks like you took action to solve a Daily Mail agenda..
Teenagers would get porn before the Internet. Before printed porn they'd carve it into cave walls. The "fertility goddesses" they find all over the neolithic are probably porn.
Back in the days before the internet they just cranked their hog to this.
I swear dumbarses like this live in a bubble. Who in their right mind would give their identity documents or bank cards to a porn site? If the UK government enacts this silly legislation it just means UK residents will use non-UK sites.
Some people really need a reality check.
This is just a step in the path to try again to make VPNs illegal there.
There’s also the risk that any age verification implemented will end up being bypassed by anyone with access to a VPN
I'd bet there's already a significant amount of people doing this in places besides the UK.
Government can't get enough of seeing what people are doing, including what they're wanking off too - no privacy for the masses.
Want to jerk off without being cucked by the government? With Nor...
Pornographic content that consists only of text is not covered by today’s guidelines.
Ao3 users can't stop winning.
I always thought that it's Erotic Literature and not Text Pornographic... Since text isn't graphic.
Since text isn’t graphic.
Sounds like someone’s never seen ASCII porn before.
I wonder if one could make a renderer that translates ascii characters into squares of solid colours. Colour depends on the character.
Zoom out far enough and you have a bitmap.

Its amazing how excluding the smut tag practically drops at least 50% of the stories, sometimes more depending on the fandom
Let's just waste some more money to appease some bigots who have illegal seed behind close doors, right? Coz normally that's exactly what happens..
Who have illegal seed behind closed doors
Please elaborate
This is the best summary I could come up with:
UK telecoms regulator Ofcom has laid out how porn sites could verify users’ ages under the newly passed Online Safety Act.
The regulator is consulting on these guidelines starting today and hopes to finalize its official guidance in roughly a year’s time.
The measures have the potential to be contentious and come a little over four years after the UK government scrapped its last attempt to mandate age verification for pornography.
“The majority of those are coming across it accidentally and stumbling across it on the web.” Ofcom’s press release cites research that suggests nearly eight in 10 children have seen “violent pornography depicting coercive, degrading or pain-inducing sex acts” before turning 18.
Once the duties come into force, pornography sites will be able to choose from Ofcom’s approaches or implement their own age verification measures so long as they’re deemed to hit the “highly effective” bar demanded by the Online Safety Act.
“Age verification technologies for pornography risk sensitive personal data being breached, collected, shared, or sold.

Will be as successful as last time
I'm torn on what to think about the uks stance on technology. Like one one hand they've been forcing apple to be normal. But on the other hand they love trying to restrict porn in the most ridiculous ways.
The EU forced USB-C not the UK.
The UK is no longer a member of the EU.
The Idea that the UK is claiming the successes of the EU after Brexit is amusing.

The government and the courts are different things and they don't like each other.

The current UK government are basically Posh Fascists (Notice the anti-demonstration legislation, sending people asking the UK for asylum to Rwanda and sending surveillance planes to help Israel with what the UN has deemed a Genocide in Gaza) so this is hardly surprising.
The Conservative wing of the Tory party has been well and trully buried by the UKIPers that invaded the party back in the Brexit Campaign days and all that's left leading that party are people with a Fascist outlook on the world and the learned posh manners that you get from the very expensive private education institutions (curiously and with no irony called "Public Schools") in that country.
