Around 14 million people in the UK are probably having a bad day. That’s how many of us watch online pornography, according to Ofcom. From today, they will have to pass age verification checks to access all UK porn sites. The legislation is part of the Online Safety Act, designed to protect children from seeing harmful material online.
May I be the first to say: boo hoo? Can’t watch that gang bang without putting in your credit card details, uploading photo ID, supplying your bank account number, mobile phone operator, or using email-based age verification? Diddums.
