Imagine if we passed a law requiring every politician to submit their browser history to the public in order to run for office...
Considering it’s already available to the NSA, it would be an improvement. At least we’d know if/how they’re compromised.
I’m sure Google knows more than the NSA about the average person. I actually hope they do, too, because those tax dollars could be used more efficiently
They do, they sell the data to the NSA
Reason number 191 why I will never run for office.
Still under quadruple digits? You’re a saint. 😅

Do they draw straws to determine who takes 2 to the face, or do they kinda rotate and leave one guy out at a time? The people demand answers!
I'd like to think the 9th wheel just wanders around the group poking dudes in the face with his dick and in his most creeper voice saying stuff like:
Uhhhhhnnnnn....yeah....you like that don't you....nnnnnnnnn....
And everyone else is really put off by it, and like the whole blow flow gets out of whack, dudes going soft left and right....
Hmmm...I think my imagination got away from me a bit there.....

I think everyone should have to verify they are 18 to go to church.
Better make it 21.
Why not 65?
I'm going to need a full signed affidavit of consent from anyone under the age of 18 getting baptized. Filed with municipal, state, and federal agencies, by denomination, in triplicate, by hand. Must be delivered at least three days before the event. $250 processing fee.
Has there every actually been a moral panic that helped society? Can we just stop with that and let people live their lives?
Upton Sinclair's the Jungle?
charles dickens books?
uncle tom's cabin?
A moral panic is when people freak out because they're scared for the nation's morals or values. The Jungle made people, rightfully, freak out about their health (whether that was the intention or not). I don't think it qualifies as a moral panic.
people freak out because they’re scared for the nation’s morals or values
I would consider the labor conditions depicted in The Jungle, The Pearl, Of Mice And Men, and Grapes of Wrath worthy of a national moral panic.
Worthy, sure. I just mean that what actually happened with The Jungle was people focused on how gross meat packing facilities were. The working conditions were treated as kind of a secondary, less important issue.

If you believe that laws forbidding gambling, sale of liquor, sale of contraceptives, requiring definite closing hours, enforcing the Sabbath, or any such, are necessary to the welfare of your community, that is your right and I do not ask you to surrender your beliefs or give up your efforts to put over such laws. But remember that such laws are, at most, a preliminary step in doing away with the evils they indict. Moral evils can never be solved by anything as easy as passing laws alone. If you aid in passing such laws without bothering to follow through by digging in to the involved questions of sociology, economics, and psychology which underlie the causes of the evils you are gunning for, you will not only fail to correct the evils you sought to prohibit but will create a dozen new evils as well.

The concern we had over the depleted ooze layer and lead contamination in paint and gasoline was nice.
As a Hoosier, I can tell you that porn sites aren't even complying with that law at this point. I can tell you for... reasons.
You no read so good law start July 1st.
I wish I could get a vpn specifically in those states just to look at porn and fuck up the numbers. 😇
You can always be a disruptor. Even when wanking.
If I must, I will take one for the team and look at porn while here in Indiana.
The sacrifices I have to make...
Make sure to search for fucked up stuff like “conservative tranny school girl fucked by politician father in airport bathroom while reading from the Bible”
I've set my VPN to Texas and Louisiana just to see what happens, but I sure as hell am not uploading a picture of my ID.

Hoosier Daddy
The bigger sites that most people know about are complying and blocking some states.
But there are countless other sites with plenty options that don't care about those state laws. It's unstoppable
Fuck with titties. Dare ya.
Titties always win.
Challenge accepted. Where can I find em?
Internet.
make phone vendors verify user ages to pay for apps and shit and this stuff will go away overnight.
Yes because kids don’t know where mom and dad’s wallets are kept.
Your point also invalidates age verification for porn sites. Just use dad's ID.
Yes. Yes it does.
Just out of curiosity of the details of some of these laws I read one of the bills mentioned (the one from OK). One of the sections removes any liability from internet providers and search engines from giving access to a site since they can't control what a particular site content has. So I read that as Bing or Google is fine to show kids an image or video search...good security there...
And me too! Sign me up! When I grow up I want to be a pornographer. That's my passion for life. That's what I want to do as a retired person. Please don't screw it up before I get my chance!
God damnit, now I have to figure out how to block all these states from accessing my website. Ain't nobody got time for that!
I wonder if this would apply to those Christian websites that have the entire Bible on them.
Porn it's a big business..
