Utah is actually trailblazing ahead of the UK here. It was only ministers possibly suggesting VPNs would be next in the firing line and AFAIK nothing has progressed beyond that yet
Yet articles about UK age verification stuff got HUGE amount of attention and backlash here...
- nephihaha 6mo agoThere is a clear parallel to the Criminal Justice Bills brought in by Tony Blair supposedly to stop "terrorism" (even though terrorism had been a serious issue in the UK from the late 1960s to the late 1990s, especially in Northern Ireland.) Now we have Keir Starmer promoting internet ID to stop minors accessing porn on the internet side, and supposedly against illegal migration on the non-internet side.
- gib444 6mo agoBills become Acts btw. Not entirely sure which ones you're referring to I'm no Blair fan but criticising someone for doing something to stop decades of 'serious terrorism' isn't the criticism you think it is. I'm not familiar with all Parliament's acts from that period so maybe you can help us with what those parallels are?
