UK online porn age-gate to go in effect July 15th

“Let the Right One In” is one of my favorites.

I found erotic books in my father’s ammo box when I was around 13 and that was my first exposure to porn. In today’s world, it’s much more graphic and I’d suspect…even more damaging to the young viewer.

Is this the flagged post? I know why. :rofl:

I don’t know what a normal kid’s initial reaction to it is, but I specifically remember feeling bad for the woman being pounded. I had no concept or reference to how what I was seeing was supposed to be a fun thing. The dude looked psychotic too. I think I was 11 or 12?

Fun fact, in the late 1970s, x-rated films accounted for over half of all videotape sales in the U.S.

It makes pols feel like they’ve achieved something.

Ooooooops there it is! :sunglasses:

I suspect they are giving up on the idea as an unworkable mess, but they just needed some cover:

I don’t imagine GCHQ was happy with the idea, given it would almost definitely have increased VPN usage.
