I noticed 4chan is not doing age verification checks, even though they host pornographic content.
Kids always learn how to get around those checks. Even back in my day when there were very few sites that had checks, I quickly found my way around them, and for a millennial I’m considered barely computer litterate. I’m certainly no hacker by any means. I won’t even pirate shit, cause I don’t trust myself not to fuck something up. Like the whole ID thing? Id just grab dads ID if it doesn’t require a credit card.
If you’re a millenial then practically every single porn site you would’ve visited “back in your day” would’ve had, at most, an “are you 18 or older?” popup as age verification…
Well that’s accurate lol
I was more talking about sites that required pay.
Still the case today for the sites I visit.
My parents’ porn VHS collection didn’t ask for my age and neither did my grand-dad’s titty magazines hidden in the tractor shed. Internet wasn’t even a thing for most people then yet I had already seen plenty of porn before I turned 10.
It clearly did affect me and I don’t deny that but I doubt it would’ve made much of a difference had I have to wait untill I was 18 for the flood gates to open. Nobody would’ve seen me for months if that was the case.
so does steam, who the fuck cares.
Steam does age verification though
…insert a random date that isnt stored, zero actual verification
it’s effectively the same as doing nothing
Do you live in a region that requires it by law? Because steam enforces it there, not just a dropdown box.
Yes, and Steam decided to just block all pornographic content instead of complying.
