    Correct headline – for UK residents without a VPN or analogies. UK residents from another country can still access sites. UK residents with a VPN can also access.

    Until Chinese,Iranian, or Russian censorship laws are applied, that will be the case.

    Access to the most extreme websites still exist. 

    Unique choice pushing kids towards them.

    Good to see the government taking a leading role in education the population on net safety, in particular how to use VPNs.

  4. It’s sad the act is bringing down sites in general but I don’t have sympathy to a site of this calibre

    I want to see the same restrictions on religion, it should be only for people over 18 who can make there own decisions?

    I don’t want to hand in my credit card let alone my details but this is essential for my wellbeing. VPN it is then.

    You know what’s really disturbing? Labour just created a potential market for stolen UK IDs to be sold to UK gooners who don’t want to use their own. Sure, at the moment most people likely use a VPN, but if they age restrict them too, ,75 yr old Reginald McBoomerson from Tunbridge Wells will find out his ID is being used to access porn sites.

  8. it just pushes people to darker and darker places to avoid censorship..

    I dread to think how many people have tried to find porn on tor, accidentally ended up on a cp website and then all of a sudden all those videos on pornhub suggesting incest becomes a reality, and they keep watching because their brains have been hardwired for it in the mainstream porn world with all of the “stepdaughter” videos 😐

    Kier zero-privacy Starmer ignoring the real problems in the country to focus on turning the UK puritan like the US

    I use proton and Firefox focus and pornhub works for me and I’ve not experienced issues online so I’ll assume Imgur is working too.

  11. It should be completely banned, as it just exploits women who are seen as nothing more than objects in the West.

  12. Shouldn’t be viewing anyway. Too much viewing it and doing the five finger shuffle will very quickly make you go blind.

    You’d be better off finding a nice story to read.
