      Your isp doesn’t know it’s you. It could be anyone on your network. And if you have to identify yourself the government gets involved right away

        And I don’t want them to assume that it’s an adult, because I have young kids at home. I also don’t want them to be able to inspect packets to look for an authorization token or something, because that means my traffic isn’t secure.

        I hate everything about this. If they force verification, I will be installing a VPN for my household to a place that doesn’t require it, because I’d rather my kids watch porn than reveal personally identifiable information online. I trust my kids a lot more than I trust websites.

      There’s a big difference between identifying yourself to a neutral ISP versus identifying yourself to the government. In general, I’m not that skeptical of government, but this is one issue where I worry about the right wing loonies getting their way. God help us if it’s ever criminalized

        @ssorbom @PP_BOY_ Banning porn would probably cause a lot of growth in porn over Tor / ActivityPub though. So that’d be a positive that would come from such a situation.
