Porn sites must have government health warning in Texas from September 1st::Just when we didn’t think the state of Texas could get any more wacko on tech policy, this latest bill really suggests otherwise. House Bill 1181 is an age verification measure that is similar to what we’ve seen in the state legislatures across other red U.S. states. You have an age verification proposal that is similar…

    CAs warnings are designed to force producers to make a version of their products that’s less likely to kill people available (and required in CA). That’s helpful to everyone.

            No. I won’t see the message, because I don’t live in a state that tries to shame adults for their sexuality. If you’re going to insist on having the last word, maybe try being right first, next time?
