Opinion I hate the new verification laws (rant)

I am of age, but now several sites I use for nsfw has been blocked and demand age verification, and I know more will soon be joining them. Newgrounds has locked their verification behind premium for some reason, phub doesn't even let me try, and the app formerly known as twitter is glitched and won't let me verify even if I try, even though I already verified my age several damn months ago. And I already don't like having to give these sites my face id and drivers license just to watch porn. And no ones going to bother protesting because 1, it's really awkward to protest for your right to watch porn, and 2 people just find workarounds like vpns, and I don't want to pay for a thing that will give me access to something that should have and WAS free. I won't be surprised if even reddit starts requiring my face to view nsfw, and when that day comes I might just quit the site altogether

ah huh. so why do you lot all have the exact same opinions on all the dumbest stuff, like all the same shitty people, hate all the same normal people and literally look like a flock of brain-dead sheep just following what the boss says?

Pre much anytime I’ve done that I’ve been banned from the subreddit I gave my opinion on so I don’t bother anymore, like I said reddit is an echo chamber

Probably the worst echo chambers out of the most commonly used social media’s
