We needed a national online govt forum where we could sue for freedom of speech violations by mods etc. Unfortunately our government lacks leadership or progressives so
Not only are they censoring porn, they’re censoring the word itself!
Not in the UK
Why you think the net was born? P*rn, p*rn, p*rn!
Since when did keeping kids off of porn sites become everyone else’s problem and not the problem of parents? Oh, right, that’s just a bullshit reason to make accessing porn more difficult and a security risk since they can’t just make porn illegal.
It’s not even that. Porn is just a bystander here. The first step is put in place a very large framework for making some form of verification mandatory on arbitrary services and sites under the guise of whatever (terrorism, child protection, and extremely niche content are good candidates). Once it’s in place, it becomes the new normal very quickly.
Then, as the government, you suddenly have the power to extend the provision of said system to whatever the fuck you want. That’s where things gets funky, and not the good kind.
And look at the money.
The reasoning for this is to eventually lock the internet down completely to put up fences and paywalls everywhere to every single site so that even if you pay for the privilege of using the internet, you will have to pay more money to actually use the internet.
It is all about controlling you and taking every single penny they possibly can out of your pocket.
All of the tracking, all of the identity verification, all of the invasive watching every single thing you do on your computer and your phone, everywhere, all of the time always, is all about milking you for every single penny they can.
Even though they are insanely rich, beyond the imagination of any human being that has ever lived in the hundreds of thousands of years of humanity’s existence on this planet they still don’t have enough money and they will still never be satisfied with how much money they have.
The fact that there are free websites where people can congregate and communicate and have fun with each other without paying them for the privilege galls them.
It grinds their heart and soul the way watching a dog get shot in the head at the end of old yeller does to a normal person.
These people are evil, and we need to stop them.
When it comes down to it, we may have to rise up and slay them.
Nothing will improve until the rich fear for their lives.
Sometimes they will act if they fear for their moneys.
With that said it bothers me that they will always look to strike a deal with the more pacifist/less disruptive parts of a movement in order to neutralise the threat.
Which in theory means it’s useless to actually aim for a reasonable goal but rather you need to overshoot by a fair bit in order for the deal to land anywhere near what you believe is decent.
BUT when you overshoot you come across as disillusioned and a lot of people will distance from you, making any movement impossible.
I’m not saying that we should start getting pitchforks or anything right now. I’m just saying that like, they need to know that that is an option and that if they keep pushing us, they’re gonna start painting targets on their own back.
I mean, that’s two billionaires down in a year, and they’re still ramping things up. Next year, it’ll be four. The year after that, it’ll be eight. And in like 15 years, we won’t have any billionaires left unless they fucking straighten up an act right.
waiting for the last line to start, I can’t start it myself but I’ll join when it’s time
Bystander effect
hey look the dumbass effect, you start it jackass
“Oh look, we just banned all the opposition party from using any online services at all because (checks notes) campaigning against us is hate speech “
All you EU chatters going on about us in the US sitting on our asses and not doing anything about what’s going are gonna eat your fucking words if you don’t show us how it’s done, and quick, because they’re coming for you HARD right now
Maybe people should care more about voting if they dont like the results. Just sayin…
Given the context of the UK political climate, who would you have voted for?
*The tories that caused brexit (along with plenty of other scandals)
*UKIP/Reform (who’s members also caused brexit)
*Lib Dems (split the left vote and help the aforementioned)
*Labour who as of the last election, hadn’t had a go at shafting us in a while
Im not saying voting isn’t important, it is. But i’m struggling to see the connection between this issue and who could be voted for.
The only party that i’ve seen against this change is Reform, but they come with more than enough baggage…
That’s when the databases become huge targets and the government officials get their everything leaked online. They voted against privacy, they can enjoy the stones they threw in the glass house they forced themselves into.
It’s more than that, they want to
- limit who can post and make money off porn, and no, this isn’t to support small creators at all unfortunately
- build massive blackmail networks
- build massive sex work websites with curated AI models and videos
And yes, any time ANY ONE EVER says, “Do it for the kids, just think of the kids,” when it is not something DIRECTLY and CONSENSUALLY helping kids, but instead FORCING ADULTS TO DO THINGS, is being manipulative every time.
The only time the phrase “do it for the kids” is actually valuable is when it’s someone asking you to grill hot dogs at a picnic.
If it’s a politician saying it, “do it for the kids” is slang for “bend over and take it up the ass because otherwise you’re a bad person”.
Yes and again, your example is an action of directly and consensually helping kids. The kids directly get the hot dog you made. They consent to eating the hotdog. They aren’t forced to eat it. You aren’t giving the hotdog to a third person who will then eat it and then by extension later help a child in some other way. Which btw, they should be doing in the first place.
I’m gonna be the odd one out, I guess.
At a picnic, it’s likely that you’re not grilling just for the kids; and likely that grilling means you’re excluded from other activities.
Activities like playing games with said kids.
Bringing them into the picture instantly becomes manipulative, where you can make the same argument (that they need to be cooked, and someone has to do it,) without it.
More reasons for gov to track everyone with face scans
I think the narrative is now that “parenting is hard” and you can’t expect parents to do it right by themselves. Parenting used to be easy so parents didn’t need any help but now it’s just too difficult and government needs to help.
Can’t raise kids? Don’t have kids. You’re not ready yet.
Parenting used to be easy so parents didn’t need any help but now it’s just too difficult and government needs to help.
Ahh ok, so that means they’re for parental leave, and free daycare/preschool, right?
And surely they’ll do something to lower the maternal and infant mortality rates, right?
And they’ll definitely make sure that we’re teaching proper sex education, and making contraceptives free and widely available in order to lower the rate of unwanted pregnancies, right?
Right??
They can’t make porn illegal yet.
wow, they actually, properly, fully did this shit. Amazing.
So glad I left that shithole. My friends are aparantly using VPNs, which is the same fucking thing I had to use to access WIKIPEDIA in TURKEY.
Well, maybe not properly
enough for it to be consistently a violation of privacy and all the rest of the terrible things it does.
Well that’s the point isn’t it
I hope he sues and wins
I don’t want to know anything more about this man other than he has a lot of tattoos, likes porn, and isn’t afraid to say it.
We can also surmise that he’s bad at computers.
I’m sure he could probably figure out a VPN or a site that doesn’t give a fuck about UK law, but chose to stir shit anyway.
Well it at least seems he doesn’t care about privacy, if he chose to upload a selfie to get past the check.
He also gave an interview about the experience of failing to upload his selfie. I think you’re right about him not caring about his privacy.
My guess is at least 80% of average internet users don’t care about privacy
King Of Ink Land King Body Art The Extreme Ink-Ite has written to his local MP to air his grievances.
Holy shit. That’s his legal name?!
For King of Ink Land, this is particularly tricky as the system believes he’s wearing a mask – but it’s actually his tattoo-covered face.
So is it first name ‘King of Ink Land’, last name ‘King Body Art The Extreme Ink-Ite’? Or is there a middle name in there?
The King of Ink Land, who is now considering using a VPN, was attempting to access a live webcam site when the issue arose.
Whoa whoa whoa. “The” King of Ink Land? That’s his name, not a title!
Godspeed, King of Ink Land. I sincerely wish you success in this fight.
In the UK it is easier to change your name than to watch porn.
The true King of United Kingdom.
There’s no such thing as “legal names” in the UK.
They just need to support alternate verification paths for people like him, and people who have otherwise been disfigured.
They should sue for discrimination if steps are not quickly taken to support their situations.
It’s funny how this turns into the gov needing to provide equal access to porn.
Or maybe the government needs to keep their hands off other people’s dicks?
Nah, we enjoy having our cold, dead, clammy government hands on your dick. We have to protect the children.
- The Government
They just need to get the fuck off of people’s life.
I think they do provide ID verification too
So the man with the most tattoos is just seeking attention?
Dude needs to just upload a pic of Norman Reedus.
At some point I think he just said fill the rest in with Aquaman to the artist

You’ve met with a terrible fate, haven’t you?
“Whaddaya mean I can’t watch porn???”
How about… People are paid as age verifiers. Win, win. More jobs, lower chance of data being stolen, maybe more awkwardness if you came across your partner on the other end of the teleconference call.
Or, how about this, bring back porn theatres. Industry gets paid from ticket sales, you have a ticket person who can ask for ID.
Also, is porn really that damaging to kids? I remember when there were videos circulating from beheadings and that was far more traumatising.
First thing I thought of was what if your family like aunt/uncle or cousin has this kind of job… that’d be way awkward.
Probably the more desirable dystopian future, to be honest.
Doesn’t need to be?
“Oh, hi Andrew why are you here?” “Got a bottle of wine with my Asda order and need to go through this circus again…” “Well enjoy your wine, age approved, see you!”
call disconnects, browser goes back to not-Asda
Idk, even that feels like a bit of a ideal/optimistic take. I just can’t see this going well no matter how they try to implement it. Can’t help but feel the ick anyway.
Not saying that he should have to do this – but I bet he could apply foundation+concealer to cover them up.
Why bother, just generate a face with some other AI and call it a day.
This entire thing is some out of touch shit.
Dead Internet is coming faster than I thought.
Well, that would be putting on a mask.
Thankful for them trying to protect our virgin eyes from the ravages of a dirty word, but the extra letters
rnare too triggering, and they’ve scarred our delicate, snowflake lives. Is there some remedy they can offer to atone for inflicting this trauma on us?On one hand this guy has a hell of a hobby that seems like it steps on everything else in his life. On the other its amazing dude exists to fuck with normative behavior and policies that exist to keep people down.
