UK government planning to require age verification for access to porn
This thread has pointed out the unintentional side effect which I hadn’t considered: this database of user auth info and their porn habits will be an incredibly valuable target for foreign governments and hackers, and a single foreign porn company owns the AV service they are potentially planning to use for it. “if they can’t find a way to de-link identities from usage, this is a monumental national security risk and it’s beyond insane they’re even considering it. “Sorry Prime Minister, Russia now knows what porn every MP, civil servant and clearance holder watches and when, and we don’t know how much of it they’ve given to Wikileaks. In retrospect, having the world’s most obvious SIGINT target built in PHP and hosted in the Cayman Islands by an uncleared foreign 25 year old working for a porn company probably wasn’t the best idea”.’
