You aren’t going to be more equipped than your child to navigate the internet. They will grow up with tech and with which you won’t be familiar. I’m not saying they will be as tech savvy as you. I’m saying that their perspective and experience with tech will be more rooted in their day to day life which is going to lead to a way of interacting with it that you don’t understand.
You can still look at porn.
You just have to verify your age.
We have age verifications for a multitude of things.
You speak of how easy kids will be able to get around this, sure, but we don’t take that stance with alcohol, vapes, cigarettes, etc.
Why is this different?

Porn stores and Nudie mags are all celebrating the win. This may be the best thing for Adult entertainment in decades, market wise.

Complaining about things you enable by voting in trash politicians is insanity.
I’m convinced republicans don’t care how much their representatives ruin their own quality of life as long as it ruins the quality of life of liberals MORE.
At this point they’re just voting for pure vibes

I think its the problem that you have to verify every time you enter a site....and you are also giving away your identity and data

I would protest that a person taking off their clothes so you can jerk off is quite different then putting a foreign chemical in your body...One is very much more freedom of speech vs chemical regulation
When I go to the store to buy alcohol, they don't take a picture of my full ID and or facial recognition....Scanning your ID online is a whole different game

The only way to enforce it is to force everyone over 18 to hand over their drivers license to watch porn.
That’s only because the same big tech that can create AI refuses to push out a private and reasonable verifications of being 18 or older. They know it will be used to limit a revenue stream that it really should not be dependent on in the first place.
Privacy isn’t as protected in the US because of Big Tech making money off our data not because they can’t come up with ways to stop collecting personal data and usage or stop tracking us.
Texas law doesn’t require the DL option and accepts reasonable and private 3rd party solutions to verifying age, but it allows for DL/ID.
Do you think IP addresses or device IDs can’t be tracked by companies, or companies can’t access website data from browser even with private browsers at times due to bugs or other hacks just like an age verification program?
In the Texas law storing any information outside of marking that user as 18 or older, using information for any purpose outside of verifying age being 18 or older, and selling same info is against the new law.
And if the solution to tracking IP addresses is adults using a VPN than just keep at it with that solution and pick a state or country that doesn’t force companies to verify age. The law is directed at the companies not the users.

For $5 a month they can get a paid Mullvad subscription that is fast enough to stream whatever and hides it from their parents and carrier/ISP.
For phones and iPads that’s because of badly tech implements restrictions. Also how they refuse to lock down ability to use a VPN connection or lock down changing systemwide DNS settings even when parental controls are set. They can barely lock down a kid purchasing an App due to how sloppy and buggy their code is.
quote:campaign by who? Big Tech, Dem controlled states & cities, and white female teachers want to push trans and a gay fetish - drag queens - on kids. Are they going to lead the way???
A much better option would be an educational campaign to help parents learn how to talk to their kids about the dangers of porn.

Are you worried about people discovering you purchase alcohol, vapes or cigarettes? Probably not. Must be something deep down inside you that still feels shame with the thought of your porn habits becoming public. That’s good! The science shows us how it negatively rewires the brain.
If the price to protect minors is merely an interior shame for adults, so be it, a worthy price.

Basically, you are required to prove your age/identity anytime you go to a website with any type of adult content. It’s too expensive and burdensome for porn sites to implement, so they simply shut it off for that State.
Supreme Court just upheld a similar law in Texas.
It also affects social media accounts for children. If you can’t prove your identity, you are treated as a minor….so no more TikTok for minors
I believe this law also makes AI porn of someone else punishable too
So, basically this law holds websites to the same legal standard as brick & mortar stores.

Not if big tech will get off its arse and put out a solution that only verifies being 18 or older using a 3rd party. If porn and big tech wanted a private and reasonable solution to age verification there would already be one.

They can set up ways to take pictures or video this at the stores, but it would be illegal just like it will be to store any personal data using to verify person is 18 or older.
The other thing is that these laws are not set up to only require the porn company to check the ID themselves like when buying alcohol at a store. That earlier mentioned 3rd party process can be used that just has to verify to the porn site that the person is 18 or older. The porn site doesn’t need to know any other info (outside of payment info which also could be a part of age verification solution) unless they and/or big tech refuse to develop or use such a system and only allow for uploading of DLs.
The problem is you trust porn sites less than your local store which makes sense, and I don’t think I would trust a porn company that wants your ID and refuses to push other solutions or all for them.

Actually allows websites to use 3rd party verification for age. It would be closer to walking in and using something like Apple Pay but instead designed to transmit being 18 or older without any other identifying info handed over to cashier.
Ability is there to adapt existing tech solutions, but the want by big tech and porn has not been there to push for solutions or improved private age verification standards due to them benefitting financially from pushing their own honor system questions as good enough along with anything more being a free speech issue.

Talk about virtue signaling. You are doing exactly what you are accusing others of doing.
Let us know how an allowed age verification of being 18 or older, which can be done using 3rd party processes and is allegedly a requirement for porn anyway based on honor system, affects your true freedom of speech? Throw in how this age verification differs from other age verifications that have been required for a long time as for as showing a lack of commitment to true freedom of speech.
No one is stopping you from watching whatever porn gets you off as long as you are 18.

Not an apple to oranges comparison between this law requiring age verification and drug laws on illegal drugs.
This law isnt directed at the adults consuming porn, and it is not retricting the selling of porn or making it illegal. It is just requiring the businesses to verify the age of its users. It will be enforced thru civil means not criminal.
I don’t know how existing contributing to delinquency of a minor type of laws will apply if someone verifies themselves and then hands device or account to a minor, but this specific law does not even criminalize a viewer/customer finding ways around the verification themselves.
The only people really whining are the industries making money off kids when they should not, and those who listen to their favorite porn site’s fear tactics and count downs.
quote:
Obscenity is no exception to the widespread practice of requiring proof of age to exercise age-restricted rights. The New York statute upheld in Ginsberg required age verification: It permitted a seller who sold sexual material to a minor to raise “‘honest mistake’” as to age as an affirmative defense, but only if the seller had made “‘a reasonable bona fide attempt to ascertain the true age of [the] minor.’” 390 U. S., at 644. Most States to this day also require age verification for in-person purchases of sexual material. And, petitioners concede that an in-person age verification requirement is a “traditional sort of law” that is “almost surely” constitutional. Tr. of Oral Arg. 17.
