Mandatory age verification online in the EU - Amendment 186 (lemmy.world)

submitted 4 months ago by cm0002@lemmy.world to c/privacy@programming.dev

9 comments fedilink hide all child comments

EU parliament accepted a last minute amendment, mandating age verification for pornographic (whatever that is) content online, punishable with up to one year prison sentence.

This was rolled into a directive concerning CSAM. Because adults accessing porn need to be de-anonymised to avoid child exploitation?

No chance we could just... you know... tell the parents to start parenting for once? Like... idk... using the fucking parental controls in the devices they give their children and checking every once in a while what are they doing online?

"Those" parents: "The State can not tell me how to raise my child!"

Two weeks later when the State has not told them how to raise their children:

"Waaah waaah! Raising kids too hard! The State should do it for me!"

This assault by religious sex obsessed freaks against civil society only stops when we ban orginized religion.

Carnegie UK, did this in the UK… the same Carnegie that was one of the original “robber barons” of the Industrial Revolution, until the public were so angry about the wealth gap the governments of the time were forced to introduce labour laws and stop their greed. This is sounding familiar…

Anyway 100 years later his companies and “charities” are back to fuck with us again.

Well he also died over 100 years ago. But at the very least we should be angry at the Carnegie UK Trust that pushed through this dystopian legislation first.

Now wait for the expanding of what is considered adult content.

Can't wait to have to show id on every website, especially ones on which I say what I think about my government (that jails people for that)

Sneaking giant bombshell as a last minute amendment – that sure reminds me of certain authocracy's legislative practices
