i’m pretty sure i read something about asking to upload ur ID. i think reducing access to minors is great however i really don’t see an upside to submitting that kind of information to enter a site 🧍‍♀️

kids and probably adults are just going to use VPNs that place them outside of the states requiring this. i also wouldn’t want to give my id to a porn website that probably has 20 viruses just one click away

The kids in my middle school were pissed when pornhub got banned from the school wifi, so they just created their own porn and spread that around. Children r crazy and we’re never going to be able to prevent it; I feel like we need to focus on harm reduction more than anything else. (How to do that? I honestly have no idea. It’s so fuckin complicated 😭 can a child psychologist lmk)

That’s been the main criticism of this whole thing. There’s essentially no way to do effective age restriction without there being a massive infosec risk for people’s personal information. I get why people want to do this but it’s really foolish when you think past the initial idea to the part where it would actually be implemented. I don’t understand what the resistance is to just reminding people to parent and supervise their own children.

I don’t think children would have created their own porn if they weren’t already addicted. I agree w ur point. But I also agree w age restriction

Oh I totally agree w age restrictions, to be clear. Especially to intense porn sites that have, like, everythingggg. I also think it’s great that YouTube and Instagram has cracked down on porn (my bff discovered porn at 4 years old on accident on YouTube, I discovered it on Instagram at 11). I also think harm reduction needs to be more emphasized. I feel like most kids who are sexually active it’s because they were abused. N regardless we need to be careful to not demonize their natural feelin
