I’m fine with the 18+ question because it atleast explicitly requires people to know they’re entering that site. You can’t argue kids are exposed by accident if they click “Enter”.

As for ID verification, I’m against it for my own privacy, if nothing else changes for kids, then what is the argument to have it for adults? (Besides authoritarian control)

Except “for the children” as argument to give up privacy never actually works.

Kids will find porn elsewhere, on shadier sites with even less moderators looking out for them. This has been true since the first dirty magazine in the woods has been found. The solution isn’t banning them, it’s educating them to treat it in a proper way. But that ofc takes effort and doesn’t let policy makers villify people.

Meanwhile the adults have to give up their privacy for no real effect. Or the porn makers just move to a platform without PII and we can repeat this dance again in a couple of years.
