You only require ID verification for NSFW subreddits, right?


Nsfw includes subreddits that discuss beer.


You know, what's funny about NSFW is that a lot of things tagged NSFW are actually regularly discussed at work!


While true, using that logic I can say porn is also discussed at work if you work in the porn industry :)

On a more serious note, implementing such a law without also providing a 0-knowledge authentication system ready to use by the government is just so unbelievably stupid (for multiple unrelated reasons).


All of Reddit is NSFW. Why are you on Reddit, you should be working!


And requiring KYC to access a subreddit marked NSFW is somehow legitimate why, exactly?


Subreddits now 18-only in the UK now include:

r/ukguns r/cider r/sexualassault r/stopsmoking

Think of the children!
