"I mean that’s what they’ll say it’s for. Because nobody wants to let kids watch porn obviously. But in practice; \n\nPeople who want to visit these websites will have to install an application for government-licensed digital certification on their mobile phones to prove that they are at least 18 years old.\n\nYeah that’s very different to blocking access to porn for minors.",
">\n\nThe Reddit take: \"This is clearly government overreach, an attempt to backdoor computers!\"\nThe reality: This is some minister or group of them trying to raise their profile with a perennial move, one which is absolutely never really enacted.",
">\n\nSo a government official who is promoting government overreach.....",
">\n\nRight, as a career builder, not a realistic plan.",
">\n\nthats how it all starts buddy. better rally against it now as hard as possible instead of just treating it like some far fetched idea which could never actually take hold in society.",
">\n\nThis isn't rallying, this is voidscreaming.",
">\n\ngotta start somewhere dude.",
">\n\nQuestion is, what do they define as a pornographic site? Twitter openly allows porn, and if people have to visit a site to tweet it's going to kill the platform in the country. People by and large aren't going to install an app to upload pics of the meal they last ate with the caption \"thinking of him.\"",
">\n\nSo does Reddit. Going to be a very tough implementation.",
">\n\nAnd yet the age of consent in France is 15. So you can have sex with someone who isn't old enough to watch porn for three more years.",
">\n\nLiterally the French President was banging his 32 year old teacher at 15 who is now his wife",
">\n\nsorry what",
">\n\nYou heard him.",
">\n\nI hope they know that a fucking 6 year old will be able to find their way around those apps. This is old people reacting to things that scare them. Kids shouldn't be looking at porn, obviously. But this isn't going to stop them.",
">\n\nThey will probably install a VPN instead of a government app",
">\n\nAnd that's a smooth segue to our sponsor, Nord\n- kid",
">\n\nWhy not just be better parents... crazy fucking thought",
">\n\nBold move to boost the IT education of the youth. Bravo!",
">\n\nPretty much. I doubt any teenager's gonna say \"alright, guess I'm not watching porn anymore\" and leave it at that.",
">\n\n\"I'll just use my NordVPN!\"",
">\n\nLol yeah let's not hold parents responsible for monitoring their children's internet usage. Instead we should make everyone install government mandated spyware.",
">\n\n“I’m over 18, ”\nGood job, pays des droits de l’Homme",
">\n\nI think you'll find it's:\n\nJe suis 18?\n[Oui] [Non]\n\nIf there's one thing I know for certain of our southern neighbour, using English for this would be more offensive than the block itself.",
">\n\n*J'ai 18 ans ?\nIn French, you say your age as a possession rather than something that you are. Also, you put a space before any punctuation that is 2 marks.",
">\n\nYeah, the guy in the photo looks like a porn loremaster. I can see why he wants to gatekeep.",
">\n\nwhat an absolute waste of time and resources",
">\n\nYes, porn being found by 11-year olds isn't ideal/good, yes it has huge impacts on development of young children. No, invasion of privacy is not the answer to this.",
">\n\nIt is, in fact, the only answer.",
">\n\nGood luck.",
">\n\nare you older than 18? yes. ok proceed.",
">\n\nyeah, good fucking luck guys. genuinely one of the most impossible endeavors i've heard of.",
">\n\nOf all countries to restrict porn, this was not on my bingo card.",
">\n\nIt's only considered porn if it's not in French.\n\"Mon Dieu! Plus rapide!!! Oui! Oui!\" makes it acceptable.",
">\n\nthis is going to be impossible to enforce unless they erect a \"great wall\" type of firewall like china (which they won't and isn't even 100% effective) \nLaws that are unenforceable are fucking useless. How can so much ignorance be possible on supposedly qualified lawmakers?",
">\n\nHehehe erect.",
">\n\nAnd a word from today's sponsor ___ VPN.",
">\n\n\"Todays podcast is brought to you by SurfShark! Do you want to watch internet content such as TV shows and Porn as if you lived in another country? Visit SurfShark.com/Barrot to get 30% off your subscription.\"",
">\n\nGonna go on a limb and assume the company that will have to implement this is linked to a sitting politician in some way.",
">\n\nOh, nothing like that at all. Their spouse merely sits on their board of directors for tax advice.",
">\n\nIt is so easy though. Enforce passeport authentication to access service provider internet. Decline this into as many controls as you want based on race genre nationality age etc",
">\n\nThat's insane. I grew up in France and use to watch porn on public television on France 5",
">\n\nAh yes alotof people born in 1904 January 26th is suddenly going to come out of the blue",
">\n\nCant they use a vpn",
">\n\nThought the same thing. Maybe it's for the purpose of selling/rolling out their digital certification app infrastructure, maybe it's theater to appear they're doing something despite being aware of the workaround, maybe they're confident that even with the workaround that a significant number of people will still be impeded from access, maybe it's a big data collection and surveillance scheme, maybe maybe maybe",
">\n\nIts so dumb though you telling me a 15 yr old in france can fuck physically but cant watch porn.",
">\n\nWait do you mean can legally consent in general? Wow, I knew they had early drinking age but damn.",
">\n\nHmmph its 15 so this bill makes no sense",
">\n\nSlippery slope.",
">\n\nWhat a pointless waste of money. A simple vpn will easily get around this and 12 year olds will most definitely be able to figure this out",
">\n\nFigured this out twenty years ago while torrenting.. so yeah, not really effective",
">\n\nSoon the average frenchman will work till they are 80 and have to wear a government gopro on their forehead you guys need the firemen to fight back again.",
">\n\nIs there any evidence for the proposition that a 17 year old, who searches out PornHub on their own, is being harmed by the visit?",

">\n\nFreedom at its finest.\nGood job, France. Yet another country that doesn't get it.",
">\n\nThe harm of this will be massive and any data breach will almost certainly result in suicides and extortion. \nTrade in stolen porn site log in details exists, is pretty big and often form part of sextortion campaigns as well as simple data breaches and hacking. I have a text file 1.5 million log in details for porn sites that i am going through, there is educators, government and even an FBI email address i am researching. This is one small combo list.\nThere is no other way to put it, this is state sanctioned voyeurism and spying, it harms children and adults and is not at all needed in any capacity. The risk is to huge to warrant its implementation, the trade of for some utopian \"protection of children\" is not enough for the lives this harmful policy will ruin and the people this stuff will kill. There is a reason why people don't like having their sexual interests public. \nThe security would need to be top notch in order to prevent its abuse, France would need to prevent scam apps on the google app store (and ios) and it would need to ensure that any and all leaks, data breaches or hacks are treated with the upmost important.

As a non American we have a word for partisan judges it’s called “corruption “.
A political Judge in the rest of the world is an embarrassment.
At one point all the Judges on the Canadian Supreme Court were appointed by the right wing conservative politician save one. Canada got no legal surprises, no bizarre partisan decisions, no secret cabals of elitists plotting against the public good (looking at you Federalist Society).
The American Courts are third world like in their political corruption. It’s a real serious problem.

Extreme gerrymandering, voter suppression, and no citizen ballot initiatives (and a state legislature that will never give that power to the public) are making it pretty permanent in NC and a bunch of other states.
We need something like a states' bill of rights at this point. These red moocher states need to start meeting some basic fucking conditions to get any federal funding. Shit, blue/urban taxpayers will gladly pay for the upgrades. Better than paying for the downgrades and allowing states to waste taxpayer money on ridiculous shit with zero oversight, while holding back legislation an overwhelming majority of people actually want and common sense, fiscal responsibility, and human decency should fucking dictate...

Part of the article: "
WASHINGTON — An extraordinary pair of orders by North Carolina’s Republican-controlled Supreme Court is highlighting how the partisan tug of war has pervaded the state’s courts and, by extension, the nation’s.
On Friday, the court moved to rehear two major voting rights cases that it had previously decided, one striking down a gerrymandered map of State Senate districts and another nullifying new voter identification requirements.
Such rehearings by the court are exceedingly rare. In fact, North Carolina’s Supreme Court ordered as many rehearings on Friday as it has in the past three decades. What also made the rehearings exceptional was that the cases had been decided less than two months ago — by a court that, at the time, contained four Democratic and three Republican justices.
The court that voted to rehear the cases has a 5-to-2 Republican majority, courtesy of the party’s sweep of state Supreme Court races in November. The potential beneficiary of those reviews is the Republican leadership of the state General Assembly, which had both drawn the political map and enacted the voter ID law that the court struck down in December."
So this is what we got to look forward to, eh? As soon as Judges of a certain party take over they reverse all the previous rulings of the opposite party judges, not based on law, but for pure political reasons, and we swing back and forth after so many years. This is just another glaring example that our courts are captured by certain political interests and broken.

The NC Supreme Court judges are elected in statewide races, not district races, so gerrymandering itself did not directly get them elected.
I say not directly because gerrymandering does have a chilling effect on voter turnout for the party that is disadvantaged by the gerrymander.
In 2022, turnout in NC by traditionally blue voters (Dems/independents, 18-40 year olds, and urban/suburban) statewide was low enough to give Republicans the advantage. Old North State Politics analyzed the 2022 turnout data and the graphs tell the story very clearly: Old North State Politics 2022 NC Midterm Turnout.

Supreme Court races in North Carolina were nonpartisan affairs until the Republican legislature ordered candidates to run as partisans, with R’s and D’s beside their names on Election Day ballots, beginning five years ago. The Republican legislature in Ohio made the same move beginning with last November’s court races. In both instances, the changes were widely seen as politically motivated — and, indeed, both supreme courts have since tilted to the right.
Smart move. I wish Dems were half as politically savvy.

No question of that. And there's tons of just gross-ass nasty porn that only fetishists will ever be into. Scat, feeders, etc
You already acknowledge that porn of varying types already existed and didn't "ruin porn".
You don't like this one type of porn/act. That doesn't in any way mean porn is being ruined. One - you don't have to watch porn you don't like. Two - You aren't the main character. Even if ALL porn was porn you didn't like personally that wouldn't mean porn is ruined.

My sibling in Christ, there is soooooooooooo much porn to watch. I reckon I've seen more naked ladies than all of my ancestors combined, and I don't even watch that much porn. No way is one fetish "ruining" it.

As a weeb, the actual "ahegao face" is far from common in 3d porn, especially if you aren't looking at cosplay porn or anything else that might be "anime adjacent".
A niche you don't like existing can't "ruin porn" when there remains plenty of porn without it. Ahegao can no more be argued to have "ruined porn" than cuckhold porn.

Porn is literally the most abundant thing on the internet, just look at something else. You cannot "ruin" porn just like how you can't flood a desert by taking a piss in it.
You're inventing a problem out of nowhere. This is straight-up boomer attitude.

Don't watch porn aimed at weebs. It's not that hard. I'm a hopeless weeb addicted to hentai but I want some real people every now and then, so I look for that instead. It's painfully easy.
Note I also despise real people doing ahegao because it just looks silly irl and I only find it hot when it's hentai. It hasn't ruined anything because I just... ignore it. Just like every other fetish I'm not into.

Isn’t your problem actually with free market capitalism? If consumers wanting ahegao is a big enough part of the market, producers are going to make it part of the mainstream in order to supply that demand. So either this is a fad or a bubble and will disappear, or you just happen to be part of a minority consumer base. Either way, if anyone “ruined porn” it’s market forces, not weebs.

The thing that actually happened was that “Jerry” expressed a desire to tell a couple trans/homophobic jokes in the stand-up bumper portion of the “show” but the audience was not laughing/leaving the room, which is… pretty funny?
Maybe a little too far in terms of sentiment, but funny.

This was the first thing that was actually entertaining that came out of this. In like an awkward way obviously because you don't want your AI spitting hate, but the speed at which it went down the InfoWars rabbit hole was really funny.
