@SpurgAnon like - this is from the text. specifically about not wanting kids to get addicted by techniques that facebook specifically has said it has done.
coomers big mad they can't indoctrinate children into their habits. It really is amazing to me how violent people will get if you even hint at the idea of taking their coomsoomption away.
@HWABAG@SpurgAnon it's *specifically* the algorithmically generated content to designed to maximize engagement. You can achieve this with a sidebar like youtube does too.
Well, yes, but I recommend if you ever have the displeasure of speaking to a real coom brain, hint at the fact that you want pornography to be banned. Watch how they react. It's fascinating.
@sickburnbro@SpurgAnon I think the other piece to that too is "employs user tracking", i.e. it's hard for PornHub to hide behind a "privacy" excuse when they themselves are tracking the living hell out of their users.
@EvilSandmich@SpurgAnon right, that's why in particular they are so evil - they purposefully are deceitful about why they want it. We know this from the past where they've had videos that are just abhorrent on their site.
As many have said, it's ok to be a horny christian, and so I can feel for guys that just want to see some boobies, but that's not what we have here.
@sickburnbro@SpurgAnon@matty How would you suggest they verify age? The issue seems to be about online anonymity. I get that porn is bad, especially if kids are watching and getting addicted to it, but how are they gonna balance letting adults view porn, whether you agree with that or not, while preventing kids from doing it?
@FreeinTX@SpurgAnon@matty if we wanted to verify someone was adult, just do what all the "give app X access to these parts of your personal information" does - just have a service from the state when you provide an email address to link your driver's license. A company which wants to verify, sends an encrypted request to the state for an email address. If it matches, it sends a request to that email and says "hey, I got this request for an account to verify you are over 18" - you can either make it so the email contains everything you need to put into the website to verify.
