Porn websites face being blocked to people in the UK if they fail to check users are over 18, under government plans.
The plans would give the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) powers to block porn sites based in the UK and overseas which did not verify ages.
Ofcom's guidance on age checks for online video content suggest a range of options - from confirmation of credit card ownership to cross-checking a user's details with information on the electoral register.

Yes, kids should be proected from porn, but is this the right way to go?
Yeah, like people will willingly give their credit card details to a porn site. And UK government giving porn sites access to the Electoral Register?
The Great Censorship starts. Or is that "continues".
