Madrid unveils a digital wallet to help porn platforms verify users’ ages.

The Spanish government has a plan to prevent kids from watching porn online: Meet the porn passport.

Officially (and drily) called the Digital Wallet Beta (Cartera Digital Beta), the app Madrid unveiled on Monday would allow internet platforms to check whether a prospective smut-watcher is over 18. Porn-viewers will be asked to use the app to verify their age. Once verified, they’ll receive 30 generated “porn credits” with a one-month validity granting them access to adult content. Enthusiasts will be able to request extra credits.

      I dislike vdL as well, bit how the hell is this the EU commission’s fault? eIDAS is not fully in place yet, so while it dies have issues, you cannot blame that.

      Spain is actively pursuing privacy invasions all by themselves. The Spanish government is actively pushing for the end of encryption in messengers so that shitty AIs can scan your photos and videos because “think of the children”, too.
