We should use the age verification laws to expose what some politicians are looking up online. They’ll turn this over in no time.
It’s why your video rental history is federally protected. So, find your nearest Blockbuster.
We should make it a requirement that for any laws politicians pass, they get investigated to ensure compliance.
Nothing would ever get passed.

If we can pass laws to keep kids out of rated R movies, I don’t why this is any different
Okay. Next time you go to the movies, be sure to let the theater make a photocopy of your driver’s license.
This is worse than that. This is letting them make a photocopy of your license and store it forever in a well-ordered filing cabinet in a locked room you hope no one unauthorized ever finds a way into. Because the government made you do it.
You know that’s not a law, right? The ratings system is something movie theaters and movie production companies have all agreed to. Unless there is a specific law in your local jurisdiction, in the US at least, there’s no national (or even state, I believe) law that says kids can’t see rated R movies
In theory you’d be right - and in fact PornHub itself wants better age verification. This is more if a “this ain’t it, chief” from them. On top of privacy and reliability issues, the Texas one requires them to have a bunch of pseudoscience about porn on their landing page.
I didn’t know that about the Texas one. Those “health warnings” are pretty bad.
