Potential Rule 8 Question: Regarding the Recent Anti-NSFW Content Bans...

SCOTUS last Month also threw in some complication from FSC v Paxton by putting Age Verification in a Schrödinger's Constitutional Right by instead of reviewing Porn as the content it was reviewed on who it impact and declaring it's a violation for adults to be forced to do Age Verification but not children.

So wait, the Supreme Court ruled it's okay to force internet age verification on minors, but not on adults?

How would you tell the difference when someone tries to access content?

The only way I could think of at the moment would be for Internet Providers to check the account owners age before allowing access to said content, and because the VAST majority of phone, cable, and internet bills are paid for by adults, effectively every access attempt would go through.

Maybe something could be done with phones, because they're registered to individual people, but through tablets, pc's, etc connecting to home wifi?

I find it very amusing and ironic that governments are forcing age/identity verification to use the internet… in the early days it was the parents/adults responsibility to keep children out of bad sites, that and the children's fear of getting caught by said parents if they went there anyways.

I mean the governments have no issue requiring ID/Age to buy Lottery Tickets, Booze, Smokes and Cigs, travel to other countries etc. so this isn't really that much of a stretch (other then of jurisdiction)… But asking for ID to vote is where some draw the line… like pick a fucking lane!

Hey, parents nowadays are too busy with more important stuff to actually parent their crotch fruit or keep age inappropriate electronics out of their hands. 🤣 :cool:

Schools are also too busy with important stuff to teach stuff like internet safety and enforce basic discipline.

As to governments, well:



I mean, it is not like historically unpopular governments would do something like suppress the opposition or spy on them, right, right.

And we also have the alleged "demographics crash", which some of these patronizing moral guardians blame on porn and the internet.
