Re:UK Government proposes porn-viewing ID by SCdF on Wednesday October 19, 2016 @12:57PM (#12745461)
There is a solution: it's installing netnanny (or whatever it's called these days) on your children's devices, and being a responsible parent to the best of your abilities.

Please don't let your squeamishness for your children's sake crap over everyone else's freedom to not be put on a leakable list that can be used to further erode our privacy for decades to come.

Now you might say "but buying booze has an id check: surely this is the same!". To that I say:

- Buying booze is not something you can be blackmailed or shamed about, except in very specific circumstances

- When I buy booze I flash an ID that the human can look at and trust, and then they promptly forget who I am when they serve the next person. I'm not sure if that's either implementable on the internet, or even desired.
