Porn is everywhere. 80 percent of the web is porn. There’s porn here on Lemmy and on Mastodon. It seems like a whack-a-mole situation .

    You’re 100% correct, this is totally a whack-a-mole situation. Some websites follow the law, and some don’t. I have no intention of sharing not only my identity, but sensitive data to access these websites. I use a VPN to bypass this on those websites that comply.

    This is getting out of hand. I feel that we have more government in areas it absolutely doesn’t belong, and not enough where it belongs.

        Government that wants to spy on you but can’t directly prohibit encryption, so this is the work around. Prohibit porn, people go for VPN. Oohh, now we have to prohibit VPN which we can’t because its a required tool plus it’s really hard to prohibit… so what else can we do, then? Government backdoor keys ftw!

        Do you care to elaborate? I can’t figure out what exactly it is you’re trying to say here.

          Republicans are traditionally, and on paper, the party of “small government”. “Fuck off feds, it’s none of your business” type shit. Some just wanted a small central government that let states and local government make their own choices, some wanted as small a government as possible at all levels.

          Which is also why you see a minority of old school republican voters refusing to call Trump’s clown show republican.

          That capitalization style is meant to be mocking, because the current dipshits in power clearly don’t have any intentions of “small government”.

        Porn sites don’t really want to comply with the ID laws. They’re doing just enough to not get fined by the Land of the Free. They want you to use a VPN so they can continue to have your business without dealing with the ID bullshit. If your IP is not in a bible state they have no reason to believe that they must comply.
