They are not displaying content that requires age verification in those jurisdictions. That's compliant.

Exactly, they are not doing the age verification. What would you have them do?

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm not "having them do" anything, I'm saying that if you don't serve content that requires age verification in jurisdictions where that content requires age verification then that's complying with the law. That's it.

They came out against it publicly and then stopped providing their service rather than complying. I do not know what else you could ask of them. If that continued to provide pornography despite the law without the age verification they would face massive civil penalties that could get enforced through courts, and possible massive criminal penalties, and the prosecutors in those shit holy States would love it.

I do not think the pouring companies have done anything wrong. None should contribute to the masturbator base. It is a betrayal of our freedom and should be recognized as such and met with contempt and ridicule.

I don't believe they are doing anything wrong. I never said they're doing anything wrong.
