No more PornHub without verifying age. The different ways are in the link
Too much government or good call to protect children?
Porn is way to easy for children to get their hands on, so I am not against the idea.

Thousands of shops will offer the special ID cards, which users can link to an app known as Portes.
Through Portes, they can then login to sites without having to hand over their email address.
Clark said: "The PortesCard is available to purchase from selected high street retailers and any of the UK’s 29,000 PayPoint outlets as a voucher.
"Once a card or voucher is purchased, its unique validation code must be activated via the Portes app within 24 hours before expiring.
"Once the user has been verified, they will automatically be granted access to all sites using AgeID."
Each PortesCard will cost £4.99 for use on a single device, or £8.99 for use across multiple devices.

It's porn today, but what will they be controlling access to tomorrow? Police state!

I see a money making opportunity.

Your morals are not my morals and as such should not be used to affect policy.

There's a shitload of parental access controls available. This is just the UK being the UK.

There is no way you can prevent underage from accessing the internet. It’s up to parenting skills. Porn isn’t the only thing on the internet where someone should be of age to look at.

Which do not extend very far. Those parental controls are only good within your house or devices. Your child's friends probably have worthless parents who did not invest in parental controls.
It was once hard to find that hidden stash of Playboys, now it is a breeze to see worse.

UK is a communist state. Look at the signs. No weapons allowed. Constant police supervision of law abiding citizens. Lack of police control of actual criminals. Government has a hand in everything. You can go to jail for posting on TD. Massive social welfare programs and wealth redistribution. Small ruling class. Increasing governed class with immigrants to maintain the status quo

I feel multiple ways about this.
1. Porn isn’t good for society as a whole and the individual.
2. Children accessing porn is even worse. It’s too easily accessible even when you aren’t looking for it.
3. However, this seems like a cash grab. Like a porn tax. If it’s really about age restriction, then why charge people money to verify their age?
4. I’m not against the idea of having to jump through some hoops to access porn, but I’m talking about porn specifically. If this kind of thing becomes accepted, you know the government will try to expand it to other areas. Then where does it stop? Slippery slope.
5. On the other hand, is it really any of the government’s business even if it’s not good for society?
I have many conflicted thoughts and I’m not sure where I stand.

Sounds like a Muslim initiative.

It's so great to see the UK government looking out for its children.
The left will tax the air you breathe if they can get away with it.

George Harrison had it right in 1966.
Let me tell you how it will be
There's one for you, nineteen for me
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
Should five per cent appear too small
Be thankful I don't take it all
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah I'm the taxman
If you drive a car, I'll tax the street,
If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat.
If you get too cold I'll tax the heat,
If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet.
Don't ask me what I want it for
If you don't want to pay some more
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
Now my advice for those who die
Declare the pennies on your eyes
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
And you're working for no one but me.
And they also have a TV tax...

That'll make it easier to punish people accused of the high crime of wrongthink.
