This was bound to happen, and it’s ridiculous

Even if kids see porn the lessons they learn are directly a result of how their parents approach the topic with them. Public education can’t functionally provide useful sex ed due to politics.
I guess if you can blame your kids for breaking the law you never have to have “the talk” with them.
ministers told
By a bunch of religious assholes that want more power
By a bunch of corporate assholes that want more money
By a bunch of politician assholes that want more power
Did I forget anyone? Nobody wants this, none of this has to do with child safety, it’s all transparent lies to get more for them and less for us. Let’s break the entire internet so that a very small group has more
Fuck all of you assholes, o hope you all die soon, the world would be souch better and nicer.
I guess it’s just too late for all those children that viewed porn. The piles of their dead bodies must be enormous!
Stop blocking Wikipedia
Brits can kiss their beloved VPNs goodbye.
They can pry it from my cold dead hands.
And hello to a VPS with RDP maybe.
So they prefer to spy on what their kids are doing? Bah, those ministers are nonce creeps.
Not their kids. Yours and mine.

ffs, authoritarian overreaching technologically illiterate BS. This also won’t work if you’re determined, make sure you have a paid up VPS!
It feels like a return of the pornography/video games/rock music moral panic of the late 20th century. I wish these conservative idiots would just fuck off. We’ll do anything before we tackle things that are really affecting children. Like poverty and hunger, in one of the world’s richest countries. We’re a joke of a country, no wonder people keep making fun of us. We deserve it.
Honestly, it feels more sinister. Sure, they say they want to eliminate this privacy tool because children could use it to watch porn, but realistically they’re not a fan of anybody using a VPN.
It seems like a perpetual panic, sustained because it creates a lever of exploitation to control the gullible. Like you can read complaints about “oversexed youth” from time periods when pornography was totally banned and women were essentially chattel. And hey, Boomers didn’t have internet porn and they are fucked.
Are not the US citizen a joke, you can not blame people who were educated in ignorance by the Governments, more in the fear of God than in the lack of reasoning capacity in a pseudo-democracy. Living in abubble and helpless in shock, when they visit Europe, seeing what means living safe and protected, with rights they even didn’t know that they exist. This is only sad, we make fun of your crappy fascist system and the current pedo-nazi asshole of president, not the people which don’t know it better.
Ah yes, Europe. Bastion of safety and human rights.
Satanic Panic
Why not just gouge out their eyeballs, it’s the only way to make sure!
You spelled ‘squirting’ wrong, I think 🫡
Good point, I do feel my brain liquefying and gushing out through my friggin’ ears when seeing what we’re doing to ourselves…
It’s so weird. Just don’t give your kids unrestricted internet access if you’re concerned about any of this…
Just give them a flip-phone and a living-room computer.
Or, y’know… they could do some actual parenting and talk to their kids about this. Kids aren’t morons, they’re just inexperienced. They are actually capable of understanding, like, words and stuff as long as one offers enough context for them… Actually teach the kids to use the internet, help them develop some insights.
And if anyone’s panicked about the immoral stuff going on in the porn industry (and there are plenty of things to be addressed and critiqued about a hystorically predatory domain), then address those directly! Friggin’ nurture their critical thinking and empathy! Locking them up in the fucking basement isn’t gonna Protect Them From Evil™, it just ensures they’ll be maladapted and sociopathic once they manage to escape from the fucking prison!

You’re 100% correct, but I would also like to point out how weird it is that porn seems to be the ONLY industry where these religious nutjobs pretend to care about workers.
In the US, the same people who say they care about the porn industry preying upon women are the same ones rolling back child labor legislations to send 14 year olds to meat packing plants. The same ones who have kept the minimum wage where it is for decades. The same ones who want to ban abortion even in cases where the woman’s life is threatened. I know this is a BBC article about the UK, but I can’t help but see some parallels with the right-wing religious conservatives everywhere in the world.
They don’t care about women. They don’t care about children. They don’t care about workers. They care about having lots of cheap labor. They care about parents being too tired, too overworked, too risk-averse for the sake of their children to dare to fight back. They want a world where peasant girls get married at 14 and start cranking out more babies immediately. Any substitute which threatens that (birth control, abortion, homosexuality, pornography, sex education) is under attack.
In the US children get shot and killed at school on a monthly basis and all the government can think to do is age-gate porn and ban books
They want a world where peasant girls get married at 14 and start cranking out more babies immediately.
It’s what Jesus would have wanted
Yep, it’s always about profit and control with these assholes, never about what’s right or wrong. And even the religious pretext is just utter bullshit from where they’re standing, using it to make the pill easier to swallow for the brainwashed masses, nothing more…
These people don’t give a fuck about any sort of god or code, they just want more money and more power. That’s all there is to it.

…and guess what. Those same people are the ones didling the children. I can fill your inbox weekly with examples of clergy, police, republicans, christo facist et al. Now, don’t even think for a second that I give the democrats a pass either. However, the list of democrats is much shorter, but fuck them both. Me thinks they doth protest too loudly.
I’m neiher republican nor democrat. Just a lowely American. I don’t need a political echo chamber to have a political compass.
At the very least, most of the Democrats are guilty of taking money from those ghouls.
To bring it back to Palantir, Biden himself was singing their praises back when he was vice president and the US government was using their surveillance tools.
As much as it is good to see MAGA turn on Trunk over the Epstein files, it’s not lost on me that Garland, under Biden, sat on the files doing nothing for 4 years. And maybe that would make sense if they were actively investigating and trying to prosecute people, but as far as I can tell Maxwell is the only one who faced any consequences.
I don’t want to distract the narrative away from Trump’s guilt. And also, when you stack up presidential accomplishments I’d still rank Biden near the top, probably top-5 in US history. But that says more about the other presidents than Biden.
Our government in the US is corrupt and compromised top to bottom and side to side, and has been for quite a long time now. No one gets a pass.

Nah, they dug in with it in the healthcare field, when “fighting for nurses” who were idiots and thought vaccines killed people.
What’s wild is that I have to assume most of us don’t. My friends have said outright their kids won’t get smart phones until a certain age and are consciously deciding media access levels for different ages.
We all grew up with open internet and most of us know that it was a bad thing. We don’t need laws to govern access.
It’s just an excuse to build more surveillance and censorship systems. Mostly, because we all learned various empowering things from the internet growing up that was outside of their state funded systems.
This is not an endorsement of homeschooling. Merely a statement that, even with the bad of the internet, we also learn many things that annoyed politicians and elites alike.
The 2010s were full of protests and organizing made possible by open access to information. That’s the real problem.
Make controlled corn illegal.
Make VPN illegal.
Make horny illegal.
Make showing body and hairs in public illegal.
This little drama may be UK specified, but govs are pushing borders of how much they can squeeze us before society starts to boil. We should boil and explode fast and faster each time, making such gov illegal instead.
Just saying… And I did not speak out, Because I was not an UK citizen.
If you think this isn’t gonna spread, you’re deluding yourself
I’m bit worried, do You mean what will spread, gov and company greed, or citizen disobedience?
I won’t delude anyone for hunger for power and money will only grow while eating. But citizens fighting for their freedom, uhm… well… sure, there is always breakpoint, when society will explode and do fight… but so far, it looks like, greed do 10 steps front, society explode, and greed do 1 step back, all calm, and greed do next 10 steps forward, another protest, another 1 step back, another chill, and next 10 steps…
i meant all the draconian bullshit the UK government is doing. It’s GOING to spread. A matter of when, not if.
