  No, it’s saying that exaxt thing: online users of porn must be deanonymised on penalty of prison.

  It’s just that the countries themselves can choose the particulates: who will do the deanonymisation, in what way, what will enforcement look like, etc.

  Every EU directive works that way: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directive_(European_Union)

    Are you reading your own sources…?

    A directive is a legal act of the European Union that requires member states to achieve particular goals without dictating how the member states achieve those goals

    Considering (another quote from your own sources):

    Negotiations will now begin between the Parliament, the Council of the EU, which represents national governments, and the European Commission to determine the final shape of the law

    They might as well look at the UK, and go “OK, lets have the user click that they pinky promise they’re 18”.

      I have: here’s the relevant paragraph from the directive:

      Amendment 186 Proposal for a directive Article 3 – paragraph 2 a (new) 2a. Disseminating pornographic content online without putting in place robust and effective age verification tools to effectively prevent children from accessing pornographic content online shall be punishable by a maximum term of imprisonment of at least 1 year.

      Pinky promise is explicitely not allowed.

        Tell you what: let’s wait the 5-10 years of consultations and see what they end up doing, then let’s come back to this discussion.
