    So there are laws that people agree with that say people under 18 cannot buy/see porn at the store. What makes this any different

      Basically PH and other xxx sites need you to verify your identity by uploading your ID. It’s what should be unconstitutional and a violation of privacy.

      Probably the bigger issue is the centralization of the internet

      If we would have some more decentralized way of consuming content, then it would be harder to censor or control it

      The internet nowadays is essentially just google, facebook, and pornhub

      So applying a rule you can just target one company which will comply anyway because this is communism

        I believe the responsibility should be on the parents to keep their children from viewing porn before they’re 18. Not the government. I also believe there should be at least some control over what minors have access to. Will it ever be 100%? Nope. All we can do is the best we can do

          And this one too of course

          What i was just trying to say was about governments trying to put restrictions in the name of kids, anti-terrorism, etc

          The same way they can’t “protect” people from torrenting sites, here they are trying to protect kids from nsfw

          Of course parents need to educate their kids themselves, tell them what good and bad, and be in contact with their kids

          Or at least parents can set up parent mode on kids devices, or home network dns filtering

          Sacrificing privacy of millions in the name of minority which will find their way anyway is ridiculous
