New law requires idenfitication before browsing porn.

Quote
Porn giant Mindgeek – owner of popular online fleshpots Pornhub, RedTube, YouPorn and Brazzers – will now collect names, mobile phone number, addresses and dates and place of birth before users log in.

You’ll have to create a username and password to use Pornhub from April onwards.

The AgeID system has caused alarm among privacy campaigners – who say it has the potential for Ashley Madison-style leaks.

‘You can imagine how much data that is going to give MindGeek, if they’re going to have stats on what people click on, what porn sites people click on, what they pay for,’ said porn site owner Pandora Blake at an Open Rights Group meeting in London last year.

What do you expect from a country that issues licenses to own a TV?

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.
Good, maybe guys will stop spending 5 hours a day with their dick between their hands.

The UK . . in fact, much of Europe seems to be steadily going down a dark path when it comes to both privacy and freedom of expression. It's really disheartening to see, even though I live in the US.

We in Ireland also have this. Never paid for that BS. It is meant to sponsor a local TV station, but they still run ads on there.

Oh, is that how it works? Here in Ireland you just have to pay it if you have a TV. Even if its not working. I have two TVs and only ever used them as gaming monitors.

Lucky wankers. They are also trying to introduce a communications license. Basically if you have any device that uses the internet, you need to pay a license for it too.

But Europe is by large and far the biggest privacy-oriented power in the world. Expression is much more debatable, but privacy law is literally most of my job and what you're saying here just isn't accurate in the light of many recent EU privacy happenings.

That's speaking about the EU though. The UK has always been a more of nanny state and you're likely going to be seeing a lot more of these recessive policies after the Brexit.
Sorry for not clarifying but, the privacy issues seem to be centered more so in the UK, and freedom of expression issues seem to be centered more so in continental Europe. (although the UK definitely seems to have a lot of issues with freedom of expression as well, currently.)

The point, for me, is that these issues exist somewhere in Europe, and I'm afraid that they will spread to places where they aren't currently an issue.

It was mentioned a while ago and after a massive public uproar it was never heard again. Its ridiculous. You pay for a service and hardware - just for some charity case to slap a license fee on it?

OTT of privacy: here at IBM, we got a huge amount of policies on handling customer data even though we have encrypted hard-drives and are under layers of firewall. We now need to delete all customer data after a certain time and request access to specific files with a business justification. Downloading files to your own machine is also difficult. Slows things down, but its all private AF.

On topic of pornography, any form of ID should have been sufficient. Giving your passport data to anyone is a little dodgy.
Protecting kids is mostly up to parents anyway. Set up browser firewalls that block access to sites tagged as 'adult'. Your console has parental controls and so does your PC. This new rule is re-inventing the wheel.

Never say never, but I doubt it. If anything, Europe is moving towards stronger and more privacy protections in changing times. If you fear for your privacy then the US should be your main concern at this point.

Still, gotta stay vigilant for this stuff. Privacy and security are difficult to balance.
I'm very concerned about the privacy violations going on in this country. What concerns me about the UK is that all this new legislation being introduced that is undermining the right to privacy is less clandestine in nature. Which alludes that the general population may be more accepting of it.

I don't think the US government could openly introduce policies like that here. I don't believe our society would accept it. Not now, anyways, but hopefully never.

"Now" has been required for 20 years, just so you know (although it might not have been implemented strictly at the lower levels). Can you elaborate on the second part?
Well, prior to this rule it was only delete files that have something like IP addresses or usernames.

Now its all and anything. But whatever, there is auto-archiving regardless.

 Blue Diamond customers are the most pain. You need to do some much just to get a single file. Some people on the team, flat out refuse to work with BD customers because of this. Even though I wrote up a straight-forward doc on how to get to the files.

That's interesting. Any controller has long been under the obligation to minimize their use of personal data and delete it as soon as it's no longer necessary. The GDPR slightly broadens the definition of personal data but it's mainly just codifying what was already commonly recognized through court cases and whatnot. What other files do you delete then? And auto-archiving of personal data still counts as processing so that doesn't exactly sound like it's allowed.

I have no clue what they are. Just important / high profile clients with high security requirements? Because that's probably not a legal requirement then.
Blue Diamond customers are clients from the medical field. So basically anything with med. records.

Are you really going to do this every time I post about this stuff? I know you have some kind of strange hateboner for me because god forbid I sometimes criticize things about the US, but now you're just being silly. It's a fact that the EU is more protective of privacy than the US, which is something completely unrelated to jury trials. Requiring a full jury for all small offenses is a largely pointless waste of time and resources, and the ample examples of countries with strong codified guarantees to jury trials that don't have it in such broad terms in their constitution backs my point. The right to a fair trial or due process most definitely does deserve that protection, but an explicit constitutional guarantee to a jury for every criminal offense is in my opinion and that of many other scholars not a necessity as this is usually already covered by the general fairness requirement.
your blatant disregard for rights we consider fundamental is annoying, and your insinuation that despite the obvious way private information is forced into public hands in Europe,  that anyone there enjoys more privacy is laughable
