Uh, well, hang on - it already is regulated exactly the same way alcohol and firearms are regulated. The law says you have to be an adult to consume it.

Then for heaven's sake we need ID Verification (just like Guns and Alcohol and Spray Paint) because the average age is 11 years old first exposure.

So, think about the children? I think a much more constructive dialog about your legitimate concerns is useful, but not the over the too “I know best” presentation:)

Well, the number of people arrested for underage drinking is nonzero - the same cannot be said for kids watching porn.

who has been arrested for drinking alcohol under 18?
Re:Inside Pornhub by loeg on Wednesday February 23, 2022 @11:20PM (#30450219)
I personally know multiple people who have gotten "Minor in Possession [of alcohol]" charges (a misdemeanor) for drinking under 21. It happens.

I did not say 18 - just "underage". And, to answer your question... ...lots of people.

Which law?
