Don't be dumb, this isnt even close to the same thing.
The "thing" is how to age gate materials on the internet. I said I'm up for a solution. What's yours?
Why stop at porn? Any objectionable words (like darn or poop), or any form of non-consensual contact (including Three Stooges pies in the face) must require photo ID to access. The internet is for everyone, after all.
No that's not how the world works. All things are not for everybody. Ask any parent. Your kids do not get to run free and do whatever they want.
Exactly. So why should we require ID for porn and not for a bad word?
If you don't know the answer to that then you're not a parent are you?
To quote Steve Hofstadder, I'm not a helicopter pilot either but if I see one in a tree I know someone fucked up.
I mean, nice quote.. I like it. But Steve's a comedian.
OR, If the pilot was a kid you'd say the authority that gave that kid a pilot's license without checking his age is the one who fucked up.
I just don't see possibly keeping kids away from internet porn is a worthy trade off in providing even more of our information to companies.
