Age Verification Delays -Our thoughts - GoFuckYourself.com

AVSecure · 03-14-2018, 04:41 AM

The effective “go-live” date for age verification, under the UK Digital Economy Act 2017, has been delayed. It was originally envisaged for end of April 2018 but is now scheduled for later this year. Due to required governmental processes the BBFC cannot release their approved guidance before September 2018. They then need to allow time for verification companies to adopt their final regulations. Discussions with the BBFC and DCMS indicate that the likely start date will now be between October 1st and November 31st this year.
Whilst we appreciate that this may cause frustration for some, it does allow AVSecure to deliver a final product that surpasses our initial expectations. We believe it will offer even greater benefits to all our users.
A 4-week public consultation period starts in this coming fortnight, where we expect many of the issues that have been documented in the press to be aired and further considered. This should result in improvements and additions to be made to existing rules to enhance consumer protection.
It also allows AVSecure time for deeper testing with our partners, which can only be a good thing. However, whilst you can relax a little, we do not expect the law to experience further delays.
Once the public consultation has been concluded there is a Parliamentary process required on the final guidance, so we suggest you prepare your company to install AVSecure by end of August/early September. This will allow plenty of time to educate your visitors and offer them the chance to verify before the effective date if they wish to do so. We can make our product available earlier for those that prefer but wanted to give you our thoughts on a what we believe is a suitable integration timetable, so that you don’t feel pressured or rushed.
We also envisage significant mainstream press and PR, associated with the Q4 go-live, will commence in September when Parliament returns from its summer recess.
From our perspective this delay is welcome as it allows orderly education of consumers and gives you extra time to consider opportunities that the age verification law may provide.
It is also worth noting that the success of AVSecure to date has been superb. We anticipate our users to be between 20-30 million at launch and believe we have the most privacy centric and robust age verification solution available.

Thanks, Steve!

Your attention to detail is why I'm preparing to go with you and have gone with MojoHost!

20-30 million users at launch ?

Thats a rather extravagant claim Steve ?

Would you care to back that up ?

The UK has a population of 66m, slightly more than half are female, and about 14m under 18.

So will you be bussing them in ?

I notice on the avsecure site it reads you can be verified by your mobile number...

Many under 18s have phones on contract paid for by their parents in guarantor, paid on contract by an age verified person. Is this going to be a suitable system?

The government hasn't even decided yet what methods can be used, so whatever those age verification solutions put on their website they can do is not based on anything

The BBFC is set to announce its guidelines, such as what methods can be used to prove somebody’s age, in the coming weeks.

I think a much better way to do this is have the internet providers block porn by default and just like with porn on cable you call the provider to unlock it. They could ask some security questions to make sure it's the owner calling and then send him an email with a passcode to disable the filter.

Well these guys seem to be offering the only decent solution aside from the Manwin mafia so I hope it's not a scam. The fact that they are offering it for free leaves me wondering what the catch is.

But regarding the 20 million figure, perhaps they are expecting their service to be used outside the UK by other sites/countries that require age verification?

In uk all mobile have a content lock installed by default. if you want to have access to 18+, you still have to call the call center or use card.

Nothing will happen. Or, at worst, some lame unenforceable bullshit that will be political posturing and nothing more.

Brits love their porn.
