I'm not happy with twitter, they are just after profiting from the AV regulation to get everyone to join their paid verifiied scheme.

Paid verification is this for real!? So scummy.

Reddit accepted my passport (it is expired) now they won't - did do a selfie but that wasn't accepted either

AV won't work as under 18's who this is mainly supposed to protect, are very tech savvy & will find ways round it in seconds along with people who don't want to do the av checks. Really makes my blood boil that AV has been pushed by Conservative & Labour government's as a silver bullet to protect under 18's & other vulnerable people, when it so obviously wont

it's already hitting places it shouldn't as Wikipedia are taking the government to court over the online safety act as Wikipedia could effectively be banned in the uk.

I agree with all that has been said in fact I'd go as far to say that this bears an Orwellian theme about it and a shade of '1984' too.

Yet this week Peter Kyle has backpedelled, now basically saying it could only be 50% safer than before AV checks etc came in and it's only the first step in making things safer etc online

I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up allowing the immigrants use the internet without being checked for age online while we have to go through all this AV shit. I'd no sooner put a petition up calling for his resignation.

excuse me a moment while I grab some popcorn. This should be fun....

It is, if you have to AV on X/Twitter you have to join their paid verification scheme

Yes the forum now has age verification. Well done for getting that set up.

Looking around at tube sites and cam sites, I'm surprised that they all seem to have fallen in line. I had thought there were going to be rebels, who simply ignored the rerquirement.
