There are plenty of solutions for that already in place. Child sex abuse sites get blocked, for example. Even forums like Kiwi Farms have carriers blackholing them. No reason why this can't be similarly enforced for porn sites that skirt the age verification rules.

Interesting that this is being suggested in a thread where someone is throwing around accusations of hyperbole. At least you're not beating around the dystopic bush. I hope that you never find yourself on the receiving end of this process. You might think that you have nothing to hide, as many have throughout history before finding out that they were quite wrong.

  I'm not a pornographer, of any type, so I will never find myself having to be concerned about children accessing my websites and being on the receiving end of any law that intends to regulate this.

    "this process" in their comment is referring to the legislative process to effectively outlaw something which you do and see as harmless. If you don't stand up for others' rights you might find yourself alone when you're trying to stand up for your rights.

    > ...so I will never find myself having to be concerned about children accessing my websites and being on the receiving end of any law that intends to regulate this. Oh boy. Good luck with the law if you accept and serve UGC and happen to store (let alone serve) any from a child who's under the age of 13. It's not just anti-sin laws that are insane.

> Child sex abuse sites get blocke Because every society in the world agrees it is unacceptable and works with foreign police to shut down the operators. The same would not be true for normal porn sites that are ignoring a foreign age law. Russian police wont do shit to shut down adult porn sites. So now youre talking about ISP level ip blocking, but that will just lead to widespread VPN and tor usage. Are we going to ban VPNs and tor too?
