Using widely available technology, well-known ethical hackers Chris Kubecka and Paula Popovici quickly accessed numerous pornography sites without ever verifying their ages.
Today I read a thread of people using the photo mode of death stranding to prove they are Norman Reedus. While this certainly won’t be the end to the story, it’s kind of funny this iteration of a clearly unfinished age verification system got out there. Makes me wonder how good they are going to protect their “customers” data.
They won’t
By 10am on Friday, data suggested an extra 66,000 internet users in the UK had begun using the dark web.
“People should be aware that children and adults who use [certain software] to bypass age checks will not benefit from the wider protections offered by our online safety rules.”
Genius
What an enormous waste of resources this whole thing is
I think they mean a VPN.

It’s more about data collection than it is about verifying age

Looks like a bunch of under 18 year old hackers found out how to click YES.
Ahhh, yes. I remember hacking many sites when I was 16. Such 1337 skills I had.
Although Sky News has verified the methods used by Ms Kubecka and Ms Popovici, we won’t give details or name any software used.
Is it called… Photoshop?
Would be funny if it was death stranding
Who would have thought…
