    Also why just UK? This age verification is being rushed out en mass all over the EU and world. In worst possible way that’s privacy invading and huge risk for security.

      Maybe because they feel like they have a chance there? The US for example isn’t going to listen to fuck all at this point.

      Because the UK has already an invasive strict age verification system in place. Where in the EU is that slready the case as well? Certainly noz on EU level or in Austria. Their are ambitions in that direction however.

        We need to be proactive opposing this crap before it becomes a norm. Because once they get their way it’s nearly impossible to make them back of their stupid dumb shit. Especially when it’s “to protect the children”.

          I am not disagreeing with that, just wanted to state the facts, why the UK is in the focus.
