When I was 6, I earned my pen licence at school.

Now as an adult, who do I need to prove my proficiency to in order to receive my wanking licence?

[-] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago

The wank auditor will see you now.

You must show your id to access NSFW subreddits!

"oh no!"

changes www.reddit.com to old.reddit.com on the adress bar

"anyways"

Tho i remember when they removed compact reddit. But i think if they remove old.reddit.com, people will really start to leave, so they'll try to get rid of it quietly.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

I do wonder how long they'll let old.reddit.com stay. I assume they don't want it but are worried about the backlash

Kids everywhere making deepfakes.

Well, that law aged like milk.

Several years ago, I tried making an Instagram account. It was locked immediately (on first log in). They good me to upload a selfie where I was also holding up my driver's license.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

This is still the case

Come to the fediverse we have porn?

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

Yes, the federated model might make it somewhat harder for governments to enforce these kinds of laws. Until those governments catch up. 🙁

balkanization of all types always seems to be the answer to these sorts of dystopian laws and i hope that it happens despite evidence contrary.

If this law says in place and is actually enforced all fediverse instances will need to start verifying age for UK users too.

I seem to remember only <7 instances allowing porn posts when I joined up. As a practical matter, I don't remember the last time I saw porn posted from any instance besides lemmynsfw.com

TL;DR: Porn on Lemmy is as centralized and easilly squashed by regulation as anywhere else.

I will straight up never give any social media site a real email address let alone a photo of myself.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

This is horrible, I remember they did the same thing with Facebook marketplace (only for everything not only NSFW lol) although you can just use a random AI generated face.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

With 72 years it is insulting for me to have to prove my age and the only thing they will prove will be my middle finger 😡

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

They'll probably VPN to mainland Europe to sign up for their account.
