Regulating porn is just stupid. It's never going to work and I don't get its objectives. Porn probably has a negative effect on children, but much less than something like TikTok. I could at least see the sense in banning children from the entire internet or limiting their access in some way (preferable implemented by ISPs rather than individual websites), but trying to specifically stop them from seeing naked people is pointless. Parents can easily control which parts of the internet their kids have access to, and much more effectively than the state can with the added bonus that it doesn't affect people without kids.
