The first time I installed a keylogger was to snipe my dad’s AOL password so I could turn off parental controls on my account.
Put any problem between teenagers and porn and they will solve it in an efficient and repeatable way.
I love these bills because it’s gonna create a second generation of hackers.
I'm hoping that this kind of thing explodes VPN usage, thus training a generation to actually be far harder to track and surveil than otherwise, achieving the very opposite of the true objective of such bills.
I remember back when age verification meant Leisure Suit Larry asking me about Watergate.
It has to make sure you're at least 57!
The kids are alright.
The sooner they learn to fuck the system, the better
They may not know how to work computers, but they know the old ways around parental security. Its the small steps that make the race
This is why my wife says I can't shave my beard.
Meh, let her grow a beard
Oh she has a full beard. No one is going to mistake that for an under age girl.

not bad, I'll keep myself a fake stache around just in case
Of course they are. Do the age verification pushers not remember being children?
Well that's against the rules!
Two kids in a trenchcoat is back in fashion!
I'm beginning to think our elected officials have not actually been kids. Either they are too old to remember or they're legit lizard people who never been a human child.
It seems more like adults virtue signalling to each other than crafting legislation grounded in reality.
Everyone knows this was never going to stop kids. It’s weirdly controlling.
That having been said, if you’re resorting to all the stuff I would have done as a tech-oriented kid to …access Meta products? Then I don’t understand you.
Porn stache
I imagine that a dollar store disguise mask should work wonders. Actually, I'm going to buy one today and do the face verification that Aliexpress is now requiring for many items, even basic cutters, for example.
