JFC western nations really are just gonna be China but with shittier trains at this rate.
No way Apple and Google will agree to that and they will say they already optional tools for that. The UK gov will also face alot of pushback to this so they will likely drop it or get a waterdown agreement…
Can the church get their nose out of other peoples business. It’s getting old.
Oh no, soon to force people to wear contact lenses that blur their own bodies in the mirror …
Seriously, just fucking up sex education at school and de-sensitive people to seeing normal human body…
The UK is really the world’s laboratory for shitty policy aren’t they?
Literally Airstrip One
What’s going on with the UK lately regarding tech and social media? They seem super paranoid in a macro sense.
… then what would be the point of a camera on your phone? If people can’t take nude selfies, record their sexual encounters, or watch even porn on the toilet, there’s little reason left to even *have* a cell phone!
Apple and Google have more or less gone over to the dark side already, but something like this would be disastrous for them, and heaven for the first company to make a competing product that doesn’t do that nonsense.
I pray they’re not that stupid.
why do countries opt for needless censoring? if i wanna watch porn let me watch it
Yeah blur it (and mute it!), so that I don’t get surprises when I expect to get rickrolled in public.
You’d think we have more pressing matters that the worry someone might see nudity. Where the hell is the push for this coming from?
No.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.
What’s wrong with nudity
Nanny state bullshit
Can the UK government just fuck off and let us look at nude photos, so long as they arent underage I dont see a problem here.
Labour really saw the conservatives torpedo their party and said „hold my beer“.
Absolute draconian nonsense
So will the UK then block all images of classical Greek & Roman statues from its own museums?
Why does the UK hate art?
THEY. ALREADY. HAVE. THEM…!!!!
To access adult content you have to contact your ISP or Phone Provider to unblock the filters because they’re already activated …BY LAW… when you become a customer.
The governnment and everybody need stop like this isn’t a thing that already exists. If you’re a parent who’s disgusted their child is watching porn then it’s because YOU GAVE THEM ACCESS! ….just ask your ISP to turn the filter back on.
Hear me out: instead of asking this for all the phones, simply sell phones like Nokia 3310 to kids if that’s your real goal.
No camera. No smartphone. * (* I know it won’t work because richer kids & their parents will always be able to pay any fee that would cost being caught with a smartphone. but it’s still a better solution than this. )
Why – everyone- has to age verify and why only in phones. I read the part where they pretend Microsoft is already doing their job there and it’s not true, it’s not to that level.
Once the kid is on the Ipad or any tablet or on computer then what ?
We need to defeat the puritans/fascists once and for all. This shit is hella authoritian, the real goal is mass surveillance.
Talk about authoritarian. Labour under Starmer are a dystopian nightmare come to life.
Their policies are so driven by some half baked ideology and they are on the road to making themselves as unelectable as the Tories appear right now.
They are a disaster for the UK.
Doing it on a per device level is better than doing it on a nation wide internet level but thats only if they do it correctly and make it so its only going to be effecting younger people.
There need to clearly be some intenet restictions for kids but the way they keep doing it just doesnt ever amount to anything.
Why don’t they just cut to the chase and digitally force a hijab ontop also. The UK government is pathetic.
What they should really be concerned about is AI being used to generate content of people and be working with the phone companies to address the harm that is causing.
I’m curious as to what this means for displaying my own nude images, like, I’m allowed to get naked but will I not be allowed to see a pic I’ve taken of myself while naked?
Ok, seriously, just fuck off already.
I dont know who is pushing this bullshit agenda, but theres bigger thing to deal with.
I might end up going iPhone just because I know apple blocks this kind of government crap
So basically we can expect our phones to be continuously scanning on the device our images and content we browse. What a fun future this turned out to be.
Na fuck them and that
So privacy, free will and personal choice is no longer a thing? What is this a parallel universe, it’s so insane, the UK is talking about blocking vpns and now this policing of private content arbitrarily? This weird morality agenda makes me want to walk naked down the street spitting profanities while watching porn and downloading torrents with an active VPN…I guess there are no adults, the world is regressing to a feudal autocracy. It’s time the peasants were revolting.
Fuck off, Starmler
