    Default Queen's speech includes porn age verification in the UK.

    The inclusion of this intention makes it pretty much confirmed. I have no problem with this as it goes some way to halting under age viewers...of course there are ways round it but it's a start and a deterrent to some.


    As sites such as MFC and CB allow full shows in free public chat they will, in time be blocked by UK ISPs. I don't suppose those sites will give two hoots about lost revenue...it will be a drop in their vast ocean and determined viewers will always find a way to watch.


    Beats me why all sites can't simply comply and enforce.

    does that mean those of us in the UK probably shouldn't bother working those sites then? thinking about it, how will that work with sites like tumblr where it's very easy for underage users to see porn?

    You could leave yourself open to a fine as MFC has models agree not to do free public shows...this covers them and moves the blame. The law regarding under age viewers is the same worldwide but the UK is intending to enforce it. I really wish ALL sites would do the same, then we could work any site we choose.

    Edit to add: Ideally, every viewer should have to pay using a credit card to view anything adult (anything you wouldn't see on page three) and then the provider has done all they can to ensure compliance. You won't held responsible for a minor using a parent's card. But in the battle for traffic I think the sites have allowed too much.

    It's easy to tease, titilate, arouse etc within the boundaries. If they want more, make them pay!

    While I agree with it in principle I'm really concerned about this. So I don't get it. Does this mean that any sites that have nudity in public, we won't be able to broadcast on??????????????

    PS I don't know loads about Chaturbate but I do know with MFC a lot of the site's traffic is British. If you look at profiles that have country tickers on them, often GB is the second or third country. It's consistent (US and Canada are usually the other ones).

    Nudity is fine...The Sun Page Three rule is a good bench mark to use. I'm pretty sure there will be ways round broadcasting. It will take a while to actually happen. Wouldn't it be great if all sites, in the meantime, decided to comply? It would go a long way towards excluding freeloaders.

    Oh right. Lol. Sorry. Yes - I do ultimately agree that underage people shouldn't be able to view it. I mean quite frankly it's just like two clicks and you're on, I worry that some of the people viewing could be 10 or something (literally). Ummm... this makes me wonder if that's why (I think) all token sites have the no pentration rule for public chat - because that's classed as "porn" legally but touching isn't? Maybe this will mean they will start enforcing that more. But I just think this might end up being incredibly limiting for anyone in the UK.

    This is gonna suck, I'm highly suspicious of it. I don't know what it is with the UK and these INCREDIBLE hangups about sex. Nobody's gonna die from watching porn before they're 18, people at that age fuck each other anyway. I have a really bad feeling about anything they do to limit internet freedom.

    I actually work AW and dont do anything in free chat anyway so it's not a problem for me, although I run a kink blog on tumblr which I could see there being more of an issue with, I guess tumblr will be forced to enforce some kind of age verification for adult content?
    in theory it is a good idea I guess, although I dont personally think porn needs to be 18+, but while it is I guess it's good? idk mixed thoughts and I have ZERO faith in the Tory government lol

    What grates the most is that if MFC, for example, enforced the rules, MFC would not be blocked.
    This applies to ALL sites.

    Perhaps other countries will follow suit as the age restriction law is common globally. Gosh, just imagine!

    As for age verification? Meh. But oh for people to HAVE to pay? Yes to that

    Okay let me just follow the logic. If a site agree's to show nothing hard core in the free area except page three nudity (which, if I am correct, means no dicks assholes or vag showing but tits and all other skin is okay) then the UK wont block that site right? BUT what if performers still break the rule? The site can blame and punish the individual but couldnt this create a situation where the UK decides its too risky to leave it up to chance and just block all the porn sites? What is there to stop them?

    I think its serious. A huge huge huge amount of paying consumers in porn are English men. They are number one or two in the world listings of spenders every year. I do not condone children watching porn of course however they can see harder then "page three" porn on HBO! And kids are growing up with computers. That makes them much more likely to figure out the tricks and hacks to get around the blocks where as the older generations of legal age and with cash to spend will not!

    Like the "war on drugs". On the surface its a good idea, but Its creating a battle where everyone will lose.

    Yet another way for the government/monarchy to put the blame on models and porn sites for negligent PARENTING. There is software to block cam sites because they all present the disclaimer that states no one under the age of 18 should be allowed to view any content at all on their sites including free chat. If a kid accidentally wanders onto Streamate, MFC, Chaturbate etc. it's because of the neglect of the parent to use screening software. Cam sites make it very easy for parents to screen their sites.

    If your kid finds a way to hack the screening software well then, you've got yourself a perverted, genius kid or she/he somehow found the password. Again, that's not the model or cam site forcing porn down your kid's throat.

    I found my parents porn stash when I was 8 years old. Did it scar me or make me a rapist? Did it make me a dirty whore? Yes, and now I'm proud of it. There are far worse things I could be doing. There is no line between true innocence, naivety and being exploited for lack of knowledge. Not saying we should be open and cool about kids looking at porn but, the government/monarchy should just work on running a country and not waste time parenting children.

    When I was a kid we had a satellite Dish and we lived in Canada which ment it was legal for us to de scrambled all american channels and watch them. I grew up watching hard core porn. Mostly American Triple XXXstacy. Most of the stuff I watched you cant even see anymore because it was all with Tracey Lords! The whole lots of kids and Canada were watching that stuff and it didnt make us bad people!

    tbh I grew up watching porn to ahaha, maybe thats why I'm so open sexually, maybe it's the inverse.
    so having read the old thread on this, is it still only applying to video's and not cam girls?

    I'm okay with this. Sites that are private based and no nudity rules may get an increase in traffic.

    I think no nudity should be allowed in free chat! I am tired of seeing these cam sites fighting for their piece of cake from the traffic by allowing everything.

    I'm not ok with it. I feel ultimately it will penalise anyone camming in the UK, and those who have made a career, livelihood, living on token sites may be deeply affected. People who have utterly changed their lives. Fair enough if it was worldwide but it's not - it's solely the UK bothering to implement it. Imagine if you guys in the US were told you couldn't use streamate any more? I don't really get it as to even access adult sites on my computer when I had different internet I had to age verify by sending £1 via a card to the provider, why can't they simply implement something like that and put the responsibility in the hands of the person who bought the computer? They obviously can.

    I pointed out that sites such as MFC which allow shows in free chat with insufficient age verification will be blocked by UK ISPs. Big mistake! Don't ever say anything negative about MFC over there. I've noticed it before.

    As this has been a long time coming, I've been gradually moving towards independent camming, which is much more relaxed

    Those opposed to strict enforcement will be pushing for a simple "are you over 18?" splash screen but that the need to enter credit card details would deter the casual under age viewer. It'll be a while before it's implemented though so everyone will have time to adapt.

    Sex & Censorship will be releasing a blog about this soon...I'll share it as soon as I see it.

    Do not think for one minute that this is about protecting children...this part of a wholesale attack on our civil liberties that we are under in a variety of areas from this Government.

    Like I have posted a few times now since 2014, what this will mean is that sites without robust age verification in place (age verification via supplying credit card details, uploading ID, or verifying with an 18+ mobile service - though this last one won't count much longer) will be blocked by all UK ISP's. When the address is typed into the search bar it will show a 404 not found as though the site simply doesn't exist. There are ways around this of course by tech savvy guys, but very few will bother when they can simply go to MFC or any other non UK site without all the hassle.

    UK performers can continue working through sites which DO have robust age verification, or put measures in place to accomodate the UK regulations (such as AW's box "require customer AV"). Unfortunately this will make us invisible to anyone on the site who is not age verified. As we have already seen on AW this means 99.9% of customers.

    MFC, Streamate, and Niteflirt have all confirmed to me when questioned that they have absolutely NO intention to accomodate UK providers by changing anything regarding age verification measures. They do not see why this would affect them, and to be honest they are correct, it won't affect them.. much.

    I think many of you are woefully ignorant of just how much of an impact this is about to have on our business!

    I'm going to the talk with UKAP before the Camgirlz screening on June 16th. They will be talking about this then and I intend to find out what I can and have my own say. It's really worth joining in with any initiatives with other adult producers as together we are stronger x
