a handful of states that require porn sites
A handful of states can require that, sure, but requiring is not enough. All the browsers and all the porn sites need to follow that and this is not going to happen
So, again, I don’t know why you’re thinking these solutions are the bad ones
If the goal is to make sure there’s age verification for users of some porn sites with some web browsers - yea, you can totally achieve that. A workaround is a) switch the website or b) switch the browser. That’s security theater though. Wastes time and money, fails to achieve the goal. If the goal is to make sure age is tested for users of all the porn sites for users of all browsers - this goal cannot be achieved without massive effort.
they’re just trying to roll it out nationwide now.
They have internet with porn in it in other nations :)
Too many ads and bad UX? Right. This article is a great example for both: https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@aras/110846684099110476
