MODERATORS
Absolute waste of tax money and resources, anyone advocating for this policy is an idiot and psychotic control freak that should never be allowed to opine on public policy.
Outdated values are driving this country back into the stone age. The body was designed to be horny as we go through teenage years. It's nature. Rather than guide kids on the safe path, fools would forbid, outlaw, prohibit until they can't control them after age of 18.
Here's how this plays out... Kids are going to masturbate, regardless. They will dive deeper into the Internet into places with no restrictions and be exposed to really messed up stuff. Hey at least the parent can pat themselves on the back, right, they were good partners that did everything right by the book, even paying the kid's therapist.
Which country would that be? This is EU related.
I don't disagree with you otherwise. If we had a good age verification system that didn't involve the website, only gave a boolean age check to the website, wasn't logged at the government or any other level, I might think this was ok. But we don't. So as soon as this starts I'll pirate a bunch of porn.
