    Looks like #ageverifcation launch date is about to be announced: will DCMS and Jeremy Hunt say anything about *regulating* for privacy, or just tell us how good their *voluntary* privacy scheme is?

    Let's be completely clear: this is a *government scheme. If your privacy is in jeopardy: it is DCMS and Jeremy Hunt who are to blame.

    They chose not to legislate. They chose to have a voluntary privacy standard.

    AV dangers are obvious, from outing people to ruining careers and even suicides.

      What porn you watch can be very sensitive information. It's striking that MPs don't seem concerned, it's not like public knowledge about watching porn has never impacted an MPs career.

      Why should AV be sometimes safer and sometimes unsafe?

      Why should do some consumers deserve privacy protection, while others don't?

      The idea that #ageverification privacy protections should be *optional* is barmy, indefensible but hey: it's also government policy.
