whats wrong with what the pornhub ethicist suggested?

work with manufacturers to implement a flag on every computer to denote if it's owned by a minor or adult, set it by default to minor, any porn sites automatically deny traffic from minor linked computers. You have to manually unflag your computer as an adult computer by pressing a button

seems a lot harder and more invasive than just asking for ID
 
If governments cared about your kids being exposed to porn, they'd step on the necks of tech companies to add better features that easily let parents restrict what sites their kids can and can not use without having to use third-party services. But they don't do that. Because it's not about "protecting the kids". It's about being able to kick your door in an three AM because you said "fuck niggers" on some random website.

And the cold truth is that if you are such a shitheel parent that you'll let them live off in the goon cave for 14 hours a day, banning porn isn't going to fix or save that kid. Stop trying to shift responsibility for families onto government, it never goes well.

And this is the main fucking issue I have with idiots advocating for such bullshit regulations. They're too stupid to realize that this shit WILL be turned against them the moment they step out of line. We've seen this shit time and time again.

You're assuming anyone here would use reddit to begin with.

You need an ID to buy booze, cigarettes, drive, pick up prescriptions, fly domestically, enter government buildings, and - God willing - vote. Accessing porn is where you draw the line?

Obscenity is not free speech. Porn is not protected by the First Amendment. Calling people niggers online is. You are doing a Chicken Little routine at best, and are okay with children interacting with porn sites at worst.

Not to mention any government system will be both more expensive and less effective than just solving the problem yourself. It takes all one ONE afternoon to look up how to do some network level blocking for pornography, there are entire guides, resources, open source softwares and step by step plans you can find and download to make it exceedingly hard for anyone on a network you control to get any sort of porn.

If the argument is people won't bother, won't try, or are too stupid for it, I'm not buying it. Parenthood is an obligation, not a option, and I've seen retards who don't know the first thing about the internet set up entire IPTV DVR setups to steal every streaming service they can find, and do so over a weekend.

And the cold truth is that if you are such a shitheel parent that you'll let them live off in the goon cave for 14 hours a day, banning porn isn't going to fix or save that kid. Stop trying to shift responsibility for families onto government, it never goes well.

A lot of VPNs offer DNS blocking categories, including porn. I'm pretty sure some ISPs even allow DNS blocking nowadays on their web portals if they control your router. There are free services and tools to do this as well, most people just don't know it's even a thing.

I strongly believe if more people, especially parents, knew about this, they would use it.

And that's exactly what's going to happen now that a Democrat uniparty is all but assured thanks to the GOP's fuckups.

Alright guys, hold on now. Fatpacks is, as always, being retarded, but I think I just had a small "come to god" moment with the realization that Fatpacks of all people was trying to stop a thread derail. Think we've gone too far.
