People bitch about that one free speech group (can't remember the name) just being a lobby funded by the on-line porn industry, but it doesn't mean they're wrong. Requiring age verification means requiring an ID tied to your Internet interactions.

Texas and other states doing this are being super retard and don't realize (or maybe do realize?) they're pushing for more control over individuals on the Internet and the total loss of any anonymity. This is how you get rightish (non-libertarian) conservatives on board with digital identity tracking.
