Getting in shit with the Mrs for jacking off to a few naughty videos. For many guys, porn is an escape and a release at the end of a long day. He shouldn&#8217;t have to worry about being exposed for something that is meant to be a private moment between you and your computer screen. Campaigner Jim Killock says:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>If the government wants to have Age Verification in place, it must mandate a system that increases the privacy and safety of end users, since the users will be compelled to use age verification tool.<br \/>\nAlso, any and all Age Verification solutions must not make Britains cyber security worse overall, e.g. by building databases of the nations porn surfacing habits which might appear later on Wikileaks.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Age Verification laws will hit the tube sites first, with all other porn and adult sites to follow. So there you have it. The way you watch porn is about to change forever.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.babestation.tv\/blog\/new-uk-porn-laws-could-force-you-to-verify-your-age-at-the-post-office\/nintchdbpict000284794664\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-10840\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10840\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-origin.babestation.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/nintchdbpict000284794664.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"793\" height=\"529\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nI sound like I&#8217;m anti Age Verification and I&#8217;m not at all, I just doubt the governments motives. It seems like it&#8217;s less about protecting our kids and more like another way of keeping tabs on us. But we as Brits are a resiliant bunch and regardless of what happens we will dust ourselves off and carry on. Until then, let us enjoy gifs like this.
