Good as its ridiculous. I am talking like 16 years back now, and I know it still goes on. When I was a young teen I used my mothers credit card on william hill. managed to spend a few hundred (mismatched name and everything)..made back what I had lost and then tried to withdraw to break even...and all of a sudden problems and ID checks They couldn 't refund the amounts that had been deposited...nor could they pay out what I won. So basically, anyone can use any card with no checks and they don't give a crap until you try to get something back, or even break even.

Yes I was a stupid teen

Also this is obviously whats going to happen with this porn block isn't it...kids if they wish to see porn wil just enter dads card details or something, and this will be another huge fraud risk for people

I think that shielding them from sex without a foreknowledge and understanding of love and respect within a relationship... and also that shielding them from unrealistic expectations that porn can give you at a very young age... then yes, I think it might make a difference.

lets be honest, the only ones objecting to age verification are those that are not old enough to view it legally

some of y'all act like there was no porn before the internet

They're literally not the most secure websites either, this is such a stupid idea

How dare they!

Only just seen this thread, and I think this is an acceptable legislation to put forward.

I understand it begs the question as to how much privacy and freedom we have online, but I honestly think it's a good idea to protect young people from being exposed to porn sites. Some porn websites should be banned completely tbqh.
