DFX4509BWorst case, this is gonna lead to body art and cosplay getting regulated in retaliation against this behavior.
FreeBooteR69Register your tats to save the children, citizen. Furries to be shot on site, it’s the humane thing to do!

Did anyone expect children to give up just because some senile psyco-moralist said so?
It certainly never stopped me from pirating music back in middle school
cough myeah, back in middle school, not at… any other time of course
Having Napster in middle school just got me in the mindset of never paying for music online. There’s always a workaround.
Yes, the senile psycho-moralists making these dumbass laws
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
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.
What’s this box of fake mustaches and bowler hats under your bed?
“Uhhhh…I’m just really into….Victorian England?”
The fap stache
As opposed to the fap stash, which was the pile of porn mags in the forest in the 70s
Fake mustaches 🤣
This is just the most ridiculous mockery of how terrible this legislation is.
Of course they are. Do the age verification pushers not remember being children?
not bad, I’ll keep myself a fake stache around just in case
“life, uh…. finds a way”
lol this is even better than the original quote
Well that’s against the rules!
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.
Two kids in a trenchcoat is back in fashion!
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.
