A distributed pseudonymous ledger for use by a centralised authority that will hold sensitive, personal information.
I think the paper was right.
Spain did what
España creó un pasaporte blockchain para ver por alguna razón, porque supongo que los tiddies ponen nerviosas a algunas personas.

Is it Blockchain based though?
It is a shitty porn passport, I’m Spanish, but I didn’t hear that it was Blockchain based.
Why? It needs a centrar register not an uncentralized one.
Yeah, I was just looking through some documentation on it. It says it uses a “digital wallet”. Maybe people are seeing that and thinking that means it’s blockchain-based? I’m not seeing anything more solid claiming there’s any blockchain involved, though. (I’m not 100% certain there isn’t any blockchain involved, though.)
It’s BS either way. Extra super plus plus BS if it’s blockchain-based. But still BS even if there’s no blockchain involved.

bit of a futile endeavour tbh, if a kid with access to the Internet wants to see porn, they’re going to find porn. And if they don’t have access to the basic sources they’ll probably find a more dodgy, unmoderated, and possibly extreme porn than if their curiosity got sated by pornhub or something
Agreed. Even going back to sharing stuff via Whatsapp or something like that, they are going to evade control for sure. But when will society be ready to just be honest with kids about what exists and teach them how to safely explore that and give them context? I guess we’d rather have dystopian control than that
Yeah, I’m not sure why so many adults try so desperately to forget what they were like as kids and teenagers. Rather than stop their biological urges, curb them or direct them towards safe release. Letting them figure it out on their own, and how else can they if you don’t actually teach them, is a recipe for disaster.
Two of the best ways to reduce teen pregnancy are sex education and easy access to contraceptives.
When I was in middle school I had a kid who would pay me a dollar per picture to print out porn for him. Of course he got caught and told on me and his mom called my mom and I was just like “no, that’s impossible you put porn filters on the computer.”
So anyway, the moral of the story is that if you want to raise your kid to be a powerful STEM overlord, and a liar, and an entrepreneur - try to take away their porn.
This is the biggest problem; you’re basically funneling kids towards those sources least likely to comply with the law.
It is also mentioned that the rules could get superseded by EU law requiring identification as well. And with the US doing stupid stuff as well you might run out of VPN locations in the future
Once verified, they’ll receive 30 generated “porn credits” with a one-month validity granting them access to adult content. Enthusiasts will be able to request extra credits.
…I’m sorry, what? Is the government keeping track of how much porn I use?
Guy who wrote a paper about Blockchain doesn’t know the difference between a “digital wallet” and Blockchain…
That’s the one I use for prison stuff right? You know spare key, toothbrush, razor, cellphone the basics so you still got room to spare.
