To Prevent minors from going to pornsites in UK , they must now scan your face to prove you are adult

Postby Netherrealmer » 03 Aug 2025, 10:28

Your webcam or camera will now be activated and you must take a photo before you go to a porn site in UK this is to stop kids from going to pornsites. This affected many adults with baby face. The funniest incident though is this man with face tattoos who lives in UK cannot go to pornsites anymore because the scanner think he is wearing a mask. :lol:

He just want to watch videos for his "self care" but he cant anymore because Porn sites thinks he is wearing a mask. :lol: :lol: :lol:

There are going to be problems with that since facial recognition software just isn't that great. I can unlock my child's phone and vice versa because we look enough alike.

Well, they are trying their best to ensure that the site is available to the appropriate age. But this is not a full proof method. Face recognition software are not flawless. In fact, we have enough from the past where they have gone wrong. And with this kind of cases where they get confused with a changed beard or moustache style or some tattoo, it is evident that a lot of upskilling is to be done for these software.
