&gt; Texas cannot enforce a provision requiring porn websites to &quot;display health warnings about the effects of the consumption of pornography.&quot;<p>Well at least some common sense prevailed, there is zero reason to have a notice like that.<p>Like I kinda get on paper how you could come to the conclusion of needing to do something like this (the ID part), I mean generally (unless you look a certain age) you do have to show your ID to buy porn or any related places...<p>But it just feels unnecessary and reeks of data collection that could be used for bad reasons.<p>I know I started looking at porn at... middle school timeframe. Maybe freshman of high school but pretty sure middle school. So 13&#x2F;14 years old time frame.<p>I am just fine. I am not saying that kids should have free access to it, but we need to remove this stigma.

What counts as a porn site? Reddit, Twitter, etc. all have porn on them. Definitely backwards for free speech and the open internet.<p>Also backwards for privacy and security. If anything, sites should be prevented from collecting identifying info unless absolutely necessary.

Im in Utah which has this law. Now pornhub is effectively inaccessible because Im not giving them my ID but I think it largely backfired because everyone uses offshore sites now. Tbh Im kind of grateful because the offshore sites have much better content since its all pirated, but I never wouldve even thought of them until I was kicked off ph.

&gt; &quot;the age-verification requirement is rationally related to the government&#x27;s legitimate interest in preventing minors&#x27; access to pornography. Therefore, the age-verification requirement does not violate the First Amendment.&quot;<p>The idea that the government takes an interest in whether a minor views pornography doesn&#x27;t make sense to me. I can see why their parents would take an interest, but it&#x27;s harder for me to justify why the government ought to weigh in on it. I get that the government gets to say what they have a legitimate interest in and what they don&#x27;t, but if you follow that logic you just wind up back where you started. It seems pointless and overreaching. This is a completely different matter than child exploitation or sex trafficking, or any matters tangential to porn.

Let&#x27;s hope a new generation of kids learns the wisdom in cooking up fake IDs. I was worried it was dying out due to today&#x27;s children not boozing as hard as my peers.

It&#x27;s illegal at the federal level to distribute pornography to people under the age of 18. I don&#x27;t understand why people don&#x27;t advocate for repealing this law while at the same time saying internet companies deserve an exception to it. There is no other age-gated product, such as alcohol, tobacco, or firearms where &quot;well they told us they were of age&quot; is sufficient, nor does the responsibility for verification lie on anyone but the distributor.<p>Personally I&#x27;m more of the free-for-all, repeal the obscenity laws type of person, but this logical inconsistency irks me.

Exposure to pornography among minors is a huge problem today with the advent of the internet, and especially given the ubiquity of smart phones among minors. The harms cannot be overstated. Those who are old enough to remember the days before the internet may remember how accessing porn was more difficult, especially for minors. The typical story is about how boys would get a hold of a copy of some sad uncle&#x27;s &quot;dirty magazines&quot;. That&#x27;s in the last 50 years. Before that, it was virtually unheard of, as it was only in the 1970s that production codes and norms were broken, and obscenity laws were loosened.<p>This law may very well be just about protecting children, but if it were also a part of a broader strategy of containing and eventually obliterating the porn industry and the normalization of porn use, then I welcome it.

Only 2&#x2F;3 of the site has to be non-porn. Generative AI to the rescue!

Given the smut in the Bible, will all Bible websites and by extension church websites in Texas need to be updated?

The slow drip of government interference means people forget what a free and open interent was like. Slowly, its becoming segmented by chickenshit regulation, censorship, and corporate control. We don&#x27;t care because its only Texas and its adult content, but this is what the slow chipping away of freedom looks like: the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

Would be better to just require all porn sites to be payment-only. Deals with addiction as well as child access.<p>Right now, this sort of regulation seems like the purpose is a de-anonymised internet in a format that Republicans can accept.

There are effective ways (cryptography) to implement age verification and other forms of ID and ID-adjacent verification online that isn&#x27;t a privacy nightmare.<p>I am currently working on one such solution:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtu.be&#x2F;92gu4mxHmTY" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtu.be&#x2F;92gu4mxHmTY</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;certisfy.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;certisfy.com&#x2F;</a><p>It works, it scales and solves the problem comprehensively.<p>Happy to answer any questions.
