Age checks to be introduced on porn websites in UK
This bullshit is actually happening. quote: The first steps in forcing pornography websites to check that users are over 18 will be be announced by the government this week in an effort to make the internet safer for children.
Websites flouting new rules, which are set to be part of the Digital Economy Act, could find that a regulator has told their internet service providers to block access to them. Those who provide payment and other services to such sites could also be asked to impose restrictions.
Porn site users will have to provide details from a credit card, which cannot be legally issued to anyone under 18, according to the Mail on Sunday. Gambling websites use the same system of verification.

This is the kinda thing that makes me happy to be in the US given our constitution and culture is decidedly against censorship.

Welcome to Saudi Britain! No, but seriously, this is both stupid and ineffective.

It also makes me happy because it shows we aren't the only country descending into madness.
