I’m guessing they have no intention to pay considering the extra fine for failing to respond to information requests
How cute of ofcom thinking they can fine 4chan into compliance
Struggling to find the list of websites owned by AVS Group so we can all avoid them
Where’s this zeal from Ofcom when GB News are spewing outright lies as truthful news?
The sole director of the company is also a director of a company called ‚Be compliant consultancy‘ lol
The problem is literally nobody takes the UK government seriously anymore, why would half of these US based companys care about what the UK is saying? especially 4chan of all websites lmao..
You can go on twitter and see porn and people being blown to peices, but god forbid you visit a porn website which should be holding uploaders accountable (most do)
AVS group was also fined £1million + the £50k which this fails to specify and makes it seem like avs group didnt deploy anything, which they did, they added multiple ID+Age checks and even added photo uploading which ofcom claim could be bypassed, like everyone isnt bypassing it already lmao.
Specifically : „children could upload photos of adults“, so whats next for this digital ID, you need to ring the government and facetime them so they know your an adult?
This is what happens when some geriatric pension pusher in a quango decides that he will police the Internet.
Ofcom should be shut down and an inquiry lead into their corrupt practices.
(their leadership have connections to US age verification companies)
„Ofcom said the fine showed the „tide on online safety“ was beginning to turn.“ Censorship just gets a bigger hold….
Meanwhile, twitter and facebook have huge volumes of illegal material and malicious comms on their sites with little oversight or safeguarding to take them down,
Brave of AVS Group to even bother continue operating in the UK given the regulatory environment and costs of compliance.
I would say relocate to another country but can totally understand that’s a big ask for owners and employees who have based their lives here.
This just tell me that if your an it company don’t operate from the UK.
This whole thing has just been a big joke.
Who even supports it outside of pensioners and those helicopter parents who are too scared to let their 11 year old walk 100 yards down the road to go to a playpark without supervision?
There’s *one* sentence about opposition to the OSA here and it’s „Critics say the Act needs to be toughened to make the internet safer, particularly for women and girls.“
I always thought manufacturing consent was kind of a conspiracy theory.
Can these companies who get blocked by isp’s just change their IP address down the line and they they will reappear if people type their URL ?
I think a lot of you are missing the point. 25 states in America now have age verification laws, plus half of the EU. Ofcom won’t have to do anything soon. America will fine American companies
The foto upload. I mean if it is good enough for roblox O.O
Just checked (for science) on a couple of sites listed, they now have age checks on them
TubeCorporate is a company based in Belize City (Belize).
„You have no power here“.
Based on the underlying intention, which was to stop children having easy access to things considered undesirable I still cannot fathom why it was done this way.
Surely ISP have a block list for over 18s only. This is the default for all public access Internet.
For home, the contract will be in the name of someone over 18, who can then specify the under block on specific devices.
Mobile Internet, exactly the same contract in parents name until 18, parents put the block on.
Some will get through the block but there will be plenty of people voluntarily updating the list to protect the children.
No one has any extra data as the contract holders data will already be with the ISP.
„In October, Pornhub’s parent company told BBC News it had seen a 77% drop in UK visitors since the age checks had come in.“
„Totally vanished they have, must all have just like totally stopped touching themselves. They definitely aren’t visiting our site at all now, nope..nope wouldn’t be possible, so that’s that“
There is a chance I have fabricated one of these quotes.
One thing I’ve noticed is you can’t acess porn without an age check but I’ve seen Ann Summers adverts with sex toys in them on TV, same for various ones on Facebook
