Definitely, if the verification requires more than just a photo, something like this is the optimal solution. Flood the Persona AI with false data

LPT: Turn safe search off, and you don’t even need the NSFW subreddits. You can search for adult anything and those results are guaranteed to contain porn. Usually, the more you scroll, more hard core it gets. When you go deep enough, you’ll eventually start finding furries too.

[-] floo@retrolemmy.com 11 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Are Furrys considered hard-core? I always thought it a little bit more silly than anything.

(no judgement)

[-] tehmics@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

If all you know about is the sports mascot fursuits, keep it that way

[-] d00phy@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

I know I don’t want to dig into this, but that one part of my brain is all….

[-] TranquilTurbulence@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 week ago

Can confirm. There are things you can't unsee.

You've been warned.

[-] bilb@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Furry by itself is largely no longer considered shocking and may even be getting close to mundane, but the thing to remember is that furry pornography can be and often is also in another kinky category at the same time. I think people who are into furry stuff (which includes myself, I'm not being judgemental either) may be more likely to be sexually "adventurous" in other ways as well.

Sounds like a bad way to do things. Won't you end up with gore on your feed? Not to mention it would be hard to filter out really dehumanizing, gross porn (which is frankly a description that fits most of it anyway)

[-] VibeCoder@hexbear.net 8 points 1 week ago

That’s why I like old school image boards with filtering. Some places have such specific tags to exclude or include and it’s nice

[-] apotheotic@beehaw.org 7 points 1 week ago

Don't have to go particularly deep if you search "furry porn", life hack

[-] Cricket@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 week ago

When you go deep enough

hehehe

[-] Zerush@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago

Less for crap sites, like Reddit or porn, which at my age in any case don't cause much interests, but the age prove also appears in movie streams classified as +18 and even +16, even in YouTube and not only in movies, also in some Music, like eg. Harakiri for the Sky - Funeral Dreams, because harsh content and others, blocked by the US Flanders moral.

Wanker loicense

[-] RhondaSandTits@lemmy.sdf.org 19 points 1 week ago

When I was 6, I earned my pen licence at school.

Now as an adult, who do I need to prove my proficiency to in order to receive my wanking licence?

[-] bobs_monkey@lemmy.zip 13 points 1 week ago

The wank auditor will see you now.

Meh, just upload a dick pic.

You must show your id to access NSFW subreddits!

"oh no!"

changes www.reddit.com to old.reddit.com on the adress bar

"anyways"

Tho i remember when they removed compact reddit. But i think if they remove old.reddit.com, people will really start to leave, so they'll try to get rid of it quietly.

[-] Karjalan@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

I do wonder how long they'll let old.reddit.com stay. I assume they don't want it but are worried about the backlash

Kids everywhere making deepfakes.

Well, that law aged like milk.

[-] electric_nan@lemmy.ml 19 points 1 week ago

Several years ago, I tried making an Instagram account. It was locked immediately (on first log in). They good me to upload a selfie where I was also holding up my driver's license.

[-] bl4kers@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 week ago

This is still the case

[-] bacon_pdp@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago

Come to the fediverse we have porn?

[-] schnurrito@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 1 week ago

Yes, the federated model might make it somewhat harder for governments to enforce these kinds of laws. Until those governments catch up. 🙁

[-] eldavi@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 week ago

balkanization of all types always seems to be the answer to these sorts of dystopian laws and i hope that it happens despite evidence contrary.

If this law says in place and is actually enforced all fediverse instances will need to start verifying age for UK users too.

[-] Ibuthyr@feddit.org 3 points 1 week ago

Is that so? Why would anyone with an instance from another country give a shit about UK law? Honest question, I have no clue about these kind of laws.

[-] Vendetta9076@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago

The answer is if they don't theyre supposed to be blocked in the UK. Which... Who cares. Everyone on here can use a vpn

I seem to remember only <7 instances allowing porn posts when I joined up. As a practical matter, I don't remember the last time I saw porn posted from any instance besides lemmynsfw.com

TL;DR: Porn on Lemmy is as centralized and easilly squashed by regulation as anywhere else.

[-] Nighed@feddit.uk 3 points 1 week ago

Yeh, but it's available through your instance even though it's hosted there.....

Unsure how that is meant to work legally.

This is horrible, I remember they did the same thing with Facebook marketplace (only for everything not only NSFW lol) although you can just use a random AI generated face.

With 72 years it is insulting for me to have to prove my age and the only thing they will prove will be my middle finger 😡
