Comment on Age Verification Is Coming for the Whole Internet
WhyJiffie@sh.itjust.works 3 days agook but my point is that if someone posts a protest article link to the honda forum, then, as I understand, the forum will become legally liable for that too. so if the forum guarantee that the link won’t even get publicly visible for a second, that’s when they don’t need to do age verification

Forums have mods and admins. As long as they don’t allow a topic habitually then, per my understanding for the UK law right now, that would make it exempt.
Compliance with the ID law is actually wrote expensive if you contract Persona as the ID checker. If 1 user of a site not based in tje UK or about UK things posting 1 news article a mod deletes in 10 minutes is enough to trigger a $50,000 compliance contact, then it’s enough to be amazing standing for an easily won lawsuit about burdens on small business.
