The last attempt failed, as far as I remember, largely because the UK government mandated designated age verification companies to provide the required verification, and those companies could not meet the EU privacy laws.

This time, the UK is no longer in the EU, and the UK government will just require adult sites to have age verification, without setting up any 'official' verification providers for them ready.

Because it's a typical "think of the children!" bill which has nothing to do with protecting children and everything to do with introducing more privacy violations, data collection, digital fingerprinting, and censorship.

If anyone should stop thinking about the children it's British politicians.

That would be great. Then you could actually SELL porn again instead of giving it away like idiots.
