You will see porn? So is it back with your passport

The british authorities have the historically tight, with kønslivets am, and the latest expression of this is the law as of april requires that pornosites to require age verification from the users coming from the Uk.

So your disks up with the mobile phone number, driver's license, passport or credit-card info in a newly developed system, called AgeID. You are not at least 18 years old, or will you not provide this information, there is no access to slibrighederne.

AgeID is developed by juggernaut Mindkgeek, which is behind the free-tubesites like Pornhub and Youporn, some of the world's largest sites.

As a user, you only have to type the info into the first time, you will check on a pornosite, and then you get automatically access when else would you encounter on other sites that have associated with AgeID.

James Clark, who is the spokesperson for AgeID, said according to Independent.co.uk:

- We have created a tool that is in accordance with british law, which both protects the children from bumping on porn and gives adult safe, secure and private access to porn sites.

They expect, that 25 million will log in via AgeID in the course of the first month.

the Goal is to make it difficult for children and young people under the age of 18 to get access to pornoen, but AgeID also meet with criticism. Not everyone cares about the idea that pornovaner can trackes on the way.

Anders Kjærulff, who is the host of 'Tapped' on Radio24/seven, is mildly concerned about the method, which break with the way we in Denmark have accessed porn. Abroad have often tried with prohibition and censorship, while we have had some success with information and education. And he hopes also, that the british actions are not coming to Denmark. For he sees the potential challenges of AgeID.

- Immediately I'm pretty sure that Mindgeek has control of the security, so they are not hacked. Which can otherwise be one of the really bad hacks. Just think of what happened when utroskabsitet Ashley Madison was hacked a few years ago, where at least three committed suicide as a result of the information that came to light.

- not to mention the myriad of divorces that followed. Hacker one AgeID, one can imagine great opportunities for extortion. But as I said, it is probably quite tight security.

Before the free tubesites ten years ago disrupterede the porn industry and our pornovaner, had to be often forward with the credit card and pay for snasket. Here lay your data, however only with a small provider, while AgeID, in principle, brings together data from many, explains Kjærulff:

- The second potential problem is that Mindgeek, which therefore controls the world's largest gratissites for porn, get access to even more knowledge about the users. The tracker us in advance, and with AgeID get the character an even clearer picture of our digital doppelganger.

- Thus, Mindgeek be one of overvågningskapitalismens key players along with Facebook and Google. They can AgeID enrich their data on the us and resell the ekstrakvalificerede data to a third party.

- If AgeID was controlled by the state, you could be nervous at the idea of giving regulators insight into one's pornovaner - as it probably will be now, get the 'capital' of the power.

Anders Kjærulff dare not speculate on whether AgeID will eventually come to Denmark, but:

- most of The concerned parents in Denmark, introduce the monitoring of children's mobiles and computer - which is also obnoxious.

It is not yet clear when exactly AgeID will enter into force for uk internet users, but you plan with april. You will also be able to purchase special pornoadgangskort with codes for five pounds from specific dealers.

British pornopushere, which did not follow the law, will be risking fines of 250,000 pounds or five percent of the revenue.
