France is moving to classify X as a pornographic website, a designation that would place it under the country’s mandatory age verification and digital ID laws.
This step, if finalized, would force the company to either implement robust age-gating mechanisms or restrict access to adult content altogether to avoid being cut off from younger users.
It would also mean that users have to show ID to access the platform, introducing major implications for privacy and free speech.
Its not about protecting kids, even if they say it is.
Oh, of course not. Just the given excuse. Honestly, people being so obsessed with minors jacking off is creepy. Who cares? If it’s a problem, then the parents can deal with it.
Religious nut are offended because they felt funny.
I felt a tingle in my dingle and now I’m going to make it everyone’s problem. - pretty much every religious leader
Which is funny because it pairs so well with the agenda of the corporatists and fascists, who could give a shit about religion but would love to track you online even more.
I’m certain that religion is responsible, and has been, for nearly every conflict in the last 1500 or so years. Yet, it seems to be entirely ignored by leftists (conservatives don’t have a reasonable view) as the cause of problems.
