Private Internet Access?
"She added that although some personal information will be required, companies must not retain personal data after complete verification."
Surely they won't. >

Even if they do, it is secured.
Even if it is secured, there won't be any breaches.
Even if there are breaches, the terms of service you agreed to will make it impossible to sue them. >

And even if you can sue them, you'll be forced into arbitration.
And even if you aren't, they'll stall it out until you run out of money, give up, die, or any combination of the above. >

Or you'll just get a check for $10 five years later from the class action. >

$10?  Look over here at Mr. Money bags.  It will be a gift certificate to Block Buster. >

I got a gift-certificate for K-mart, but only for use on items sold in a blue-light special. >

My mom worked the toys and apparel for a while I remember when I was young. She would take me in the back and show me all kids of stuff like the break room and stuff. One day she got sent home early and I was so worried she didn’t loose her job but that 9/11 happened and my brother signed up for the army afterwards I think is what happened it was a weird time in my life… my life is so much more weirder now than I ever thought it would be…. >

Is this pasta? >

The youth will have to get their porn from the woods like we all had to as kids. >

or instagram.  Instagram is literally full of soft core porn disguised as cosplay. >

A lot of social medias just have str8 up porn too, like reddit. >

We can’t just click the “yes, I’m 18” box anymore?? >

I’ve wondered when this would happen since before the first images could even download efficiently. 😅 >

gilliananderson_boobs.jpg has finished downloading.
Whew! Time to see what this is all about! >

Good gracious, I'm old enough to remember when Netscape first supported progressive jpeg downloads, over a 1200 baud modem! >

Ugh whenever someone says “I’m old enough to remember” in relation to porn I’m immediately reminded I come from the generation who grew up with African tribal women in NG and the ladies underwear section of the Sears Roebuck catalog as our earliest outlets. >

Don't forget the magazine in the woods. >

That was very much real.  The woods close to the apartments I grew up in, every summer stashed away in a few trees you could always find magazines in the trees hidden away.  Some people think it's a fable or legend, but it was real. >

Filesharing didn't begin with the internet... >

What exactly can Louisiana do to a website that isn't located in Louisiana, often not even in the US?
Several years ago I owned some adult-type websites and I would get occasional e-mails from the government of Turkey demanding that I take them down because they violated Turkish law. Not that I block Turkey but straight-up take them down. Straight to trash they went. >

Lawsuits, but I don't think they have standing for just having a website up on the internet. Stuff like GDPR where EU citizens have accounts and are doing business (using services) with US companies like FB and Twitter is an example of what can be done. >

Those laws like in EU regard actively targeting EU citizens. Simply being acessible from a region usually doesn't constitute a basis for anything. >

That's my point, the general mechanism for disputes with sites is lawsuits, what you said is why I said they wouldn't really have standing just existing in a country. >

Isn't this the same party that despises government interference?? >

Ooh, La = Louisiana
This headline now makes far more sense. >

Yeah I got confused why a bill would only interfere with a single area of California because I read L.A. >

Gotta love feel good laws that can't be enforced, and any attempt to actually make it happen leaves a whole host of privacy issues.
From a tech perspective. A website has no one to enforce this just on Louisiana based residents even if they wanted to. You can't use the IP address to just target ones located in Louisiana because any border city may show across in the other State. And because a simple VPN to a server elsewhere defeats it. The ISP can't enforce it based off of physical address because, once again, a VPN to a server in another State or country will hide the traffic from the ISP and defeat it.
The only way you're going to have any sort of anything resembling success would be to require the websites to verify everyone going to the site, otherwise a VPN will bypass it. And once you do that, there will be data breaches which exposes fairly sensitive information that might be used to blackmail someone or to get them fired from a job based on their search history. So there's massive privacy concerns there. And even if they did that, any site not based in the US will just ignore the requirements anyway.
This shit is exactly why politicians should face repercussions for putting laws forward that are blatantly unconstitutional and/or completely unenforceable. >

From what I understand from the article, the enforcement comes in by the parents being able to sue the website. Good luck if the website is hosted somewhere outside the U.S. >

And most porn sites are, funny enough, at the very least owned by parties in other countries. Of course, they usually have US servers to make things faster, as most websites do. >

Oh no! How will I ever circumvent the internet’s air tight age verification systems!!
-NO UNDERAGE PERSON EVER >

The toothpaste is out of the tube at this point.  There’s no way to stop kids from watching porn >

Was there ever? >

I’m old from the pre internet era.  It was snooping playboys from your dads sock draw or scrambled playboy when cable first came out >

Yea the underwear section from the fat Kohls catalogue that appeared in the bathroom a few times a year was a staple of mine. That or spending 2 hours to download a nudie off kazaa using a dial up modem. Circa 2000 or so. >

The best thing about the catalog is that it doesn’t destroy your brain with overstimulation >

Time for kids in Louisiana to start cranking down to nude yoga on youtube >

Or just hop on a VPN and sign into literally anywhere else. >


sign into literally anywhere else.

...and start cranking down to nude yoga on Youtube. >

Please, we have to educate them, by making them crank to naked news >

CSPAN but naked. >

CSPAN butt naked >

Coming to a red state near you. >

Dad, I want a subscription to Nord VPN for Christmas. >

For real though, Nord is the shit. Haven't had any issues. >

I've been using expressVPN for about 3 years now and it's been great.
