Pornography sites face UK block under enhanced age controls

The problem is enforcing it. will government bureaucrats view every flagged site to decide if it's porn? Will this be done on the whim of an individual or by committee? How will they block the domain effectively? Do they understand how VN works?

Or is it spin to fool Brits into thinking the government has a clue?

I'd say something will have to be done. Let's say you google the term "sex video" in one click you're presented with a page of hardcore thumbs (tube site), another click and you're watching a hardcore sex movie.

Can the Government do it?

Without writing a program that's installed on every computer that freezes surfing on everything that remotely hints at being porn.

A computer is unable to identify the age of the user. So any measures have to be for everyone.

The simplest, most effective and by way, the cheapest is to issue every household, school, organisation, etc. With a copy of Net Nanny. A company that's light years ahead in this field.

Not sure if it's doable or not. Net Nanny seems a bit extreme. Here's a similar discussion from Oz Make your own kid-friendly home internet access

Plain wrapper sites with credit card verification seems the way forward. With sites refusing to follow the rules being blocked. Yes, you have VPN etc. but I'm sure the big sites would play along.

Move to the .onion and accept payments in BTC.

Not my preferred choice -- the governments will force peoples' hands.

Age verification was ruled unconstitutional by the US Federal courts
ASHCROFT V. AMERICAN CIVIL LIBERTIES UNION (00-1293) 535 U.S. 564 (2002)
but there are other onerous laws and regulations regarding explicit content on the books so far held constitutional in part thus enforceable.

You can try to play internet police at your own expense or leave the public internet -- good luck to the winners.

Scarcity ensures profits for mediocrity.

Would site like Twitter to Brazzers.com seriously play along while other refuse to and take all the traffic? The owners only have to stay out of the UK.

No site controls or owns traffic. People are on the site because the site gives them what they want.

A program similar to Net Nanny is the only option. Gives control to the parents. Even though some of them are morons, it works.

I have a lot to thank net nanny!

finding ways to break through net nanny when i was 12 - 15 got me into computer security.

the ironic think is horny teenage boys will ALWAYS find ways to bypass systems and view porn I know I did at that age!

@Paul
Parental responsibility is a very old argument -- and -- it has not worked.

That is the real problem and the evils of the Internet are the whipping boy.

One solution might be "Members Only" admission -- a pay wall. You can buy a lifetime membership to what used to be free content for 1GBP. That might eliminate 95% of the minors but it will not eliminate all underage participants -- not possible.

This will also put 80% or more of the competition out of business and affect referral sales from affiliates -- this is the government's real intent -- lessen the porn footprint on the Internet.

Register for your "perv' ID in the UK at the post office (welcome to the perv database).

How do you think that will work out?

Good luck to the winners ...
