Uh, is that supposed to be 3 times per month? Like, you can only visit sadpanda 3 times a month or something?
Good luck blocking whatever "kids" with intent end up finding on a DDG with Safesearch: Off.
For now, it only applies for sites hosted in Spain, but they want to have it apply to anything based off Ireland (IT tax haven)
Oh nice, just what people need/want, the fucking government spying on your porn searches.
Regarding the 30 accesses/tokens pack, it's supposed to be something you can just input on a porn site and access it without being asked for an age verification. And yeah, you only get to use/access one site 3 times per pack, no reason was given.
It's good that the article also has a talk with a cybersecurity guy, who plainly points out that the govt isn't trustworthy for keeping the data secret/anonymous, and that the whole idea "is horrible [and what you expect] from the worst dictatorships"
I don't use this term often, but which smoothbrain thought of this? 30 tokens per month (so, 30 individual visits per month, never mind if you can't find what you're looking for on that particular site or just plain want to see it more often), and then only 3 visits per site. I'm sorry, what? Did someone in that panel own a bunch of unknown porn sites or something?
They don't want to block site from Spain+ireland. They want to block sites from Spain. Later on they also want social media to also enforce this ban.
Ireland is only mentioned because it's the preferred tax haven for tech companies in Europe. They're not targeting Ireland in particular.
