      I’m not opposed to vpns. I simply don’t want porn accessible to children easily. Simple barriers to entry like an ID or credit card have worked before and surely will again once porn streaming sites give up fighting this regulation and start working to follow it.

        It’s too easy to go around. Make a Reddit account: NSFW access.

        Search torrents, NSFW access.

        Join a telegram channel, NSFW access.

        Hell, just search google images and it’ll work to an extent.

        Discord, same thing.

        With this many websites, you just can’t stop it. They can’t even stop the piracy websites so…

        It seriously harms everyone’s right to stay private and anonymous for this, and I believe it sucks.

        If then want to see it, they’ll ask other people, and that’s where it becomes dangerous.

          You have more faith in the younger generations technical skills than I do. Either way though I don’t want it to be impossible to bypass, just harder to access if you aren’t an adult.

              It might just be the best option right now, but I haven’t really read any other suggestions so I’m not entirely sure. I would be open to a different implementation though.

      Given that I torrent without a VPN and it had nothing on there, and it also got my location wrong by over 500km, I dont think I’m too worried.

        If you’re on private trackers there won’t be anything

        Location is estimated based on ISP. Always trash
