Half of the US Now Requires You to Upload Your ID or Scan Your Face to Watch Porn

As of this week, half of the states in the U.S. are under restrictive age verification laws that require adults to hand over their biometric and personal identification to access legal porn.

Missouri became the 25th state to enact its own age verification law on Sunday. As it’s done in multiple other states, Pornhub and its network of sister sites—some of the largest adult content platforms in the world—pulled service in Missouri, replacing their homepages with a video of performer Cherie DeVille speaking about the privacy risks and chilling effects of age verification.

This is going to expand. The next wave is going to be keeping kids off of social media. That means they will have to be age-verified, which they can’t do, because they’re kids, and don’t have ID. Instead, everyone else will have to be age-verified in order to use the Internet.

Here in Florida, I’ve already heard one state lawmaker scoffing at any objections, saying it’s the same way we keep kids from buying alcohol - by checking EVERYONE’S ID. Now they’re going to do it for the Internet. Every movement and post you make on the Internet will be directly tied to your verified identity. That should be perfectly fine, as long as you aren’t doing or saying anything wrong, right?

I’m fine with that. Kids will adapt like we did and make their own space. Or a single company will capture them all like tiktok and the gov will shit themselves again.

Wow, COMPLETELY miss the point, why don’t you? It’s not about the kids, you moron, they’re using the kids as an excuse to oppress the rest of us.

And your reaction - Ah, the kids will be fine - is exactly what they’re hoping for. You will permanently surrender the privacy of every person on the Internet, just because some parents don’t feel like doing their jobs as parents.
