Either VPN sales will go up, OF sales will go up or there will be a trend of pushing soft core porn to its limits on IG, tiktok and whatever shithole social media. Hey maybe twitch will get their viewership back up and fully commit to hot tub streams?
Theirs always a way around legal shit otherwise people wouldnt be buying weed and other illegal drugs.

I just think the thing that brings me back to being backside beffudled is the fact that is it the people also having a say in this and also the hypocrisy? I have seen things going around with Epstein's list, and I believe that majority (if not all tbh) of important world leaders (in America that is) are on that list, hence why there's been so much issue on getting them released. I'm not saying laws like this should or should not be passed, but again, the hypocrisy of it coming from a whole flock of people that actively participate in bull-crappery is hilariously sad to me.
Especially knowing dang well they probably do worse things than watch porn themselves. That being said though, I think my main issue with this is (again) adult content being too easily accessible to children. And I speak from experience, sometimes it's not even the visual stuff that can be bad, but I also mean literature and art that's too easily accessible for kids to read and look at.

just remember that politics is downstream of culture. it always has been.
If the culture can eventually change, the content of character of the people in power may improve.
I for one am sick of softcore porn in instagram reels, facebook reels, tiktok & all over social media. if we dont need an ID on social media to prove we are the age we are, what is stopping a child from making an account and saying they are 18? i mean back in my day we had to lie about our age to make a Facebook, Myspace and even a YouTube account!

That's true. It always starts at the home with these kinds of things and sadly a lot of people nowadays are struggling with so many issues right now, whether that be mental wise or just having bad habits and addictions that people glorify rather than genuinely trying to help that person be/do better. That's of course removing people and families (parents) that are genuinely trying to watch their kids like a parent should, but we live in a world where getting support (proper support is hard), whether from the government or the people itself.
I think the whole point of this is that there are more deep rooted issues than just certain things being easily accessible to children, cause like I said before, you can open up multiple cans of worms when mentioning laws and how to go about them. And whether said people who are passing the laws are good or not, I know everyone is in control of their own actions and beliefs at the end of the day. The sad thing is, I don't think banning things like this would do much of anything, cause people always find a way to get around them.
But, that's not to say we don't mention these issues of course, but I don't think things like this will ever truly be in control lol.

It doesn't bother me that much. I have a girlfriend and porn desensitizes you. Also, my faith wouldn't want me watching that content. Also, I have kids. I hate how porn shaped my mind as a kid and young adult. Also, you can find it without ID if you really want to. There will always be ways to watch porn without a ID. Though if I wanted to watch invading my privacy by making me submit ID is a no no for me. I guess you could say this is setting the tone for more invasive practices by the government. So I can see why people care. Can also see why people care about these sites being inaccessible to minors. It's bad for adults but good for kids. I can live with that. You can find non ID porn if you really want it. Though I prefer if they just left it alone and buffed Parental control reach.

I 100% believe this legislation isn't about just protecting the children. It starts here, but all they have to do is judge it in different directions once the ball gets rolling. Here are what I think the average citizen will have to give up once internet traffic is moderated by the government:
-pirate downloads of videos will be a thing of the past. Your internet streaming services will now be able to charge whatever they want with no danger that you will leave
-now that porn usage is tied to an ID, it will be extremely easy to blackmail politicians. Hacking blackmail campaigns will dramatically increase
-every single thing you say online will now easily be able to be tied to your government ID
-opens the door for other countries to do the same thing where someday VPN will not even matter.
Pros:
-children cannot easily see porn anymore
I really don't think it's a good idea to give our government the keys to the kingdom in order to stop one thing that is wrong. There are absolutely better solutions that don't involve giving up all anonymity on the internet. Why not another form of ID That proves you are an adult that you can pick up if you have an ID? One that doesn't tie to your government ID? Easy solution, but if you pull back the curtains you can see what they really want. More control away from us.

I mean I don't think this is an overreach, this is what a lot of people voted in these people for in their state legislation bodies. I mean it's extremely unregulated on the internet. The current regulation is Oru 18. That's way too easy. If they had restrictions it would make it harder for children to find it. Yes there's a lot of ways around things but not every child is as resourceful as you and I.
Also politicians are already blackmailed for a lot of other things. But if it's legal to view with an ID what's it really going to do to their reputation? I mean not as much as the Epstein list would do. I don't think they're going to be doing this as a means of tracking all of us. They've already had that power for over a decade and the US government has been caught spying on the French and German government.
I mean society as a whole has not been able to handle it on their own. In fact most of society seems to be okay with keeping it freely available and easily accessible from a cell phone or even a Amazon Fire TV stick via the browser.
Usually when they create a government ID thing such as when they have with voting in my state 20 years ago, you use your state ID. You don't get an additional id. More than likely this is going to be something that can be renewed when you renew your driver's license and just tide to your account without being a separate ID or giving some kind of identifier on the card.

The people elected a narcissist as president. All my care about something bad happening to us ends there. The people looked up the definition of narcissist and said yeah give me that as my leader. I have no sympathy for what happens in this country. It's hard to care. Because of people sheer ignorance of what they elected that's why I try to bring awareness. Everything can and will go wrong you dealing with a narcissist and his oblivious and malleable party with all the powers it comes with.

I'm aware of that and I know he's a narcissist. I didn't vote for him. I voted for Kamala Harris as a protest vote. I'm talking about the states and local governments that are passing this change on a state level in the south. I don't think a pornography ban could happen federally

At least you know what he is I swear some people don't know what that means for them. Either way bad things happening doesn't bother me because of who they elected. Who's gonna do anything about your rights being taken away or your privacy being voilated. Not trump. The guy that is above the constitution.
