Here's an interesting point. I just went to an nsfw sub to see if I'd get that prompt, and it gives me two ways to verify - selfie or photo ID. The photo ID has to be "government issued", and maybe I don't have one of those. The selfie is a link for a phone, using a QR code and I don't have a phone that can scan QR codes.
This means that in order to access said sub, I'd need to buy a new phone or wait 30 days or whatever to buy some kind of ID. Even with all the other reasons this sucks, that seems discriminatory.
QR codes are a plain text encoding scheme. If you can screenshot it, you have access to FOSS software that can decode it, and you can paste that URL into your browser.
I know this, but it's a barrier for anyone who doesn't.
Who's in the middle of this Venn Diagram between "uses some kind of custom OS on their phone to where their camera app doesn't automatically read QR codes" and "doesn't know how to install or use software that can read QR codes"?
Sure, but the point is, they also could've posted a simple link, instead of expecting users like the above, to go thru hoops.
Damn. Did you find something else to jerk to my friend ? ( Shit no I don't want you to jerk to my friend )
Can't even get porn models from civitai in a few hours it's about to be blocked in the UK too.
Really? Lmao. Stock up.
