fucking hell. i'm actually going to have to get a loicense to watch porn. memes becoming reality.

Dispite all the hate and anger argentines naturally have for brits, good luck in the dark and Orwellian nightmare future you have ahead of you Brit. Shit is gonna be pretty bad
Ryan Ramirez
It will only affect legitimate paysites. Boomers BTFO, but anyone under the age of 35 who gets their porn from imageboards and streaming sites won't even notice.

Reminder that this whole thing is spearheaded by the kikes at mindgeek aka pornhub to relieve you filthy goys of your hard earned sheckels.

Nah, it'll never happen. Politicians can't figure out modern technology even at the best of times. They've been blathering on about this for years and no one has been able to work out a viable way of enforcing it. Just think how many actual porn sites exist on the net, now think of how many 'mixed' sites (like Jow Forums) exist. If it does happen then it will literally only impact the biggest sites on the net, Xvideos, Porn Hub etc, I doubt the system will extend to obscure Hentai sites and places like e621 or R34, Danbooru, Gurochan, etc...
Christian Morales
There are details though OP.
>only cites with mostly porn content will be affected >only commercial sites will be affected >social media like Twitter, Reddit, etc, will be exempt >The sites will be able to use any means for checking they see fit, the licence/code stuff is just one of the options available
It's a step in the wrong direction, but it's not what it's being made out to be.
Nathaniel Hall
that won't stop muslims from raping children though
Brandon Walker
I bet Jow Forums is gonna get blocked. Why would Hiro be assed to implement something that actually has to verify the age of someone using a connection to a separate database full of literal wankers? Jow Forums is definitely going to be considered as "pornographic" since it's blocked in basically all public wifi spots that have any sort of porn censor. Maybe you guys can still use 4channel :^)
Zachary Ortiz
it's going to affect any profit making sites, i.e sites which host advertising. such as pornhub.
Owen Gutierrez
It actually isn‘t. They are still at the application period stage so they have not decided yet what platform they will use for Age Verification. Rules are very strict there.
It can affect any 18+ site. and they will extend this to other things, not just age verification for porn.
Kind of steep. Whats the price of white on white tranny?
Isaac Russell
Wouldn't it be a shame if Jow Forums became a porn site and bongs needed a loicense to shitpost?
Christian Watson
>obscure Hentai sites and places like e621 or R34, Danbooru, Gurochan, etc... It's legitimately sad that you know of this many sights. Repent, degenerate.
Jace Peterson
How can you browse Jow Forums for any length of time and not know about these sites?
You must be new.
Lincoln Gomez
The guidance is focused on ensuring the purity of age verification and includes the following important clauses:
>Only the MINIMUM amount of personal data required to verify a user’s age shall be collected. A user’s identity shall not be verified as part of the process.
>Information about the requesting website that the user has visited shall not be collected against the user's activity.
>Age-verification providers shall only share the result of an age-verification check (pass or fail) with the requesting website.
>Personal data relating to the physical location of a user shall not be collected as part of the age-verification process.
>Personal data used for fraud prevention and detection and to verify a user’s age for access to commercial online pornographic material shall not be used for any other purposes, such as marketing or the creation of digital wallets. Age verification providers shall not market other services to these users during or after the age verification process. >A user shall be given the option to verify their age without being required to set up an account with the age-verification provider.
AV providers should not aim to do anything with a user other than verifying their age. Methods or systems that attempt otherwise will likely not attain accreditation from the BBFC
Why would a porn company want to make it harder for people to watch porn? Even just the extra step of having to go buy a license will put people off. No more "in the moment" urge to watch porn.
Lincoln Brooks
>only cites with mostly porn content will be affected Lel and what cities are those? I bet London isn't in the list, considering porn is haram.
Robert Cook

You'd have to ask the board of censorship that question mate. Exceptions can be made based on individual cases.
Henry Gray
No and thats the reason why this age verification system is not up yet. Because a crucial part of this system is still not operational.
Matthew Perry
We've all seen this scene before.
They promise to only use the minimum data and only for good.
then in 4 years there'll be a huge scandal where actually everyone's porn habits have been logged and released by a hack. Anyone who trusts companies with their data at this point is clinically retarded.
Thomas Lewis
What are lobbies?
Cooper Cook
Its seems they try to avoid this scenario. Like I said, something very important is still missing thats why its getting delayed. If that thing isn‘t working then your scenario will happen, if it works then it won‘t.
Ethan Stewart
At first I thought this was about anti-porn morality or "protecting" young people, but when it became apparent that Twitter and non-commercial porn sites are exempt, it's obviously just a porn tax.
I think the privacy aspect is their least concern, they just want to make money from porn themselves.
Noah Sanchez
>porn industry wants harder access to their content You are not the brightest right?
This is bigger than just >muh porn or >muh age verification and goes way beyond than what that porn company is.
Of course it SEEMS like they're trying to avoid that scenario, but they aren't. The real reason for this pass system is clearly data collection, but the backlash from admitting that is too large, they're hoping to do it and then beg forgiveness later.

Logan Ward
Its not just about the money, this thing here is some kind of testrun and if it works, which it will then they will expand and extend this system all over the world for all kinds of things. The internet will make a big transformation in the next couple months/years.
Andrew Allen
LOL yeah.. common sense. Anyone with an understanding of networking/security will tell you that this system is fundamentally impossible without compromising anonymity. At best, they're using sync RSA like keys which provide "unique" secure verification. The problem of course with this is that the central authority administering this has a unique avenue to track the shit out of a user. This looks less like age verification and more like an first step in testing out an experimental tracking/monitoring system that restricts every user's activities on the web. Given the EU's bullshit privacy policies and in-house data rules, it is clear they are progressively moving to a centralized internet authority that tracks/monitors/taxes online activity. Essentially, in the future, you'd need this key bouncing off of every website you visit and your personal data/cookies/etc would be kept in a file locker controlled by the govt. They're just slowly trickling this shit out under the guise of : Think of the kids. As they always do.
They likely and already have a similar system in place but now they're formalizing its functionality.
See : This is a pre-cursor to locking down and taxing all internet activity by a centralized authority/tokenizer system.
Hunter James
So, essentially, you took the bait and don't see the (((broader picture))) move. You literally think this is to shelter kids from porn. If brainlets that frequent this site believe that I can only imagine what the brainlet public thinks.

John Jones
It's always this kind of thing and a friendly reminder to enjoy things thoroughly in their wild wild west phase because assuredly it will eventually be locked down and taxed. You can guarantee that. Cyber-punk predictions are becoming more and more real with moves like these. It's going to be hilarious watching this culture come about again.

Porn is irrelevant to this, they could be requiring passes for pictures of cute cats and it would be equally troubling government overreach. The reason it's for porn is because idiots like you will support anything that's "think of the children"
> no fap > no porn Are psy-ops you brainlet. So is all the christ-cuck bullshit. It's meant to prey on vulernable/confused/hormone laden youth who question every little thing they do.
> What's wrong with less porn? They're flooding the EU/UK w/ 3rd world immigrants because they need people birthing slaves in class to prop up the economy. STD rates have soared. Your average roastie has slept with the whole village and is a risk vector. Having casual sex is pretty destructive in this day and age. This bill has nothing to do w/ porn and everything to do w/ locking down and controlling every activity an individual conducts on the internet. There is no porn issue. It's a convenient excuse and : > en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Think_of_the_children "Think of the children" (also "What about the children?") is a cliché that evolved into a rhetorical tactic.[1][2][3] Literally it refers to children's rights (as in discussions of child labor).[4][5][6] In debate, however, it is a plea for pity that is used as an appeal to emotion, and therefore it becomes a logical fallacy.[1][2][3]

>that was the case a couple years ago but technology moves forward friend. >Ever heard of Zero Knowledge Proofs? >Thats part of the tech that they will use and this solves the problem. And yet the fundamentals of Information theory proof otherwise. Data always has to traverse a pipe. He who controls the pipe thwarts even the most sophisticated securitization protocol. The only caveat is when you get into quantum networking whose properties cause physical intrution or line eaves-dropping to compromise the data and flag intrusion. Even then, this will eventually be cracked as well : > phys.org/news/2018-10-quantum-network-unhackable.html
The server has knowledge and is the weakest link. Point to point connections occur through IP addresses. In that is knowledge. Hackers attack the weakest link not some "Genius" level academic wonder that failed to account for the real world environment it will be put in. > Thats part of the tech that they will use and this solves the problem.

Exactly. The sad reality of this is that utter brainlets will be behind these legislations and technological roll-outs that will be so tightly wound into every device that it will leave whichever country is dumb enough to do so vulnerable to a slew of debilitating attacks (foreign powers especially). This will be the eventual price paid for thinking you can control everyone without understanding that such a vector can be utilized by outsiders to control (YOU). But whatever, godspeed...

honestly i'm not that bothered i've been wanking a lot recently just using my imagination. you can come up with some really filthy stuff in your head that you'd never find on video.
A lot of brainlets on Jow Forums have been completely kiked by nofap/christcuck bullshit that well-minded individuals used to collapse their confidence and cause them to second guess their sexuality, sexual desires, pee-pee, and think they'll go to hell or become losers if they even think about it. Hilariously, such mental cucking has caused them to become brainlet incels (as intended) who are unable to confidently pursue anything.

I personally don't believe in nofap, but I can see some usefulness in it. Like trying to encourage people who excessively use porn to cut back.
Dylan Martinez
So less Brits will be expending their sexual energy on porn and instead will have to use it to work towards thing like finding a mate, having white baby's and overthrowing their dystopian government . These tards sighed their one death warrants and dont even know it.

Not everything is about money... This is sort of why the world is so fucked up right now and why so many things eventually fail... Like an attempt to control a whole populous under draconian bullshit mandates.
The cycles continue because man continues to be set on the same failed goals of a time's past.
Juan Price
>Like trying to encourage people who excessively use porn to cut back. Everything in moderation. Indeed, anything you do in life should be able to be halted/moderated for a sensible time period for you to assess/reflect on it. However, not beating your dick isn't going to change your life. Maybe give you more motivation to do so but you should already have most of your energy set on pursuing goals/dreams. Beating your meat to wind down should be the least of your analysis because it should already be moderated or you should already be successful enough in other areas including women to not give a shit about how often you touch your pee-pee
Chase Thomas
I agree with your assessment.

yes >In April 2017, the Digital Economy Act (DEA) received Royal Assent to address key issues regarding online communications services relating to the UK’s digital economy. The concept behind the legislation was to implement tougher provisions on copyright offenders, improved transparency of broadband speeds as part of a push towards true net neutrality, the sharing of citizens’ data and the online age-verification of adult content.
>All UK-based users accessing commercial pornography websites will have to verify their age on the front page before accessing the remainder of the site. >These websites will be free to select the age verification methods they wish to use, but they must be compliant with the DEA 2017.
