They're trying to charge to access porn in the US now. Although I imagine this legislation won't last very long.

Not just porn, but also things that are patently offensive. Good thing there are only 3 sites on the whole internet that have that kind of content! Could you imagine if porn was found all over the place?!

Government delays age verification for porn until end of year, will hold consultation, announcement hidden in unrelated press release.

This is strawberry floating hilarious. Make a huge overarching statement that has no real practical application, propose a method of control that is so extreme as to be untenable, cancel it last minute. Brexit writ small

A good edging is worth it's weight in gold.

Just a note, this has been kicked into the long grass, with a vague ‘later in the year’ deadline.

Reading between the lines, they’re probably only now realising how difficult this is going to implement and regulate.

So someone said they would be included in it and suddenly they didn't like the idea of everyone know the depraved gooseberry fool they get their Tory Hard-Ons to.

They're going to have to set another date so I doubt this will get implemented this year. I could see another date being set around September though. Maybe it'll be put in place around April 2019 or just pushed back again.
