Cloudflare starts blocking pirate sites for UK users

PSA: UK users can visit all their favourite websites in Tor Browser. Just don't run your torrent client using the tor network. Thank you.

You can also access 4chan, Tattle Life, and other nasty gossip websites that the UK nanny state wants to ban.

And you can access the porn on Reddit and Twitter (though in some cases you'll have to make an account). And of course the "tube" sites work fine.

After you've done that, as a UK citizen, please go to https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/722903 and ask the government to repeal their awful law.

You'll need more than just an account to access "certain mature content" on sites like Reddit - you'll soon need to upload some photographic ID.

It is trivial to create a digital picture of a false ID.

Which is why you will need to provide a cryptographically secure identity credential issued by the government, and you will need to re-verify at regular intervals, not just upload a JPEG.

Make no mistake, the plan is to require 'KYC' for Google, reddit, Facebook, X soon and all that and then later require it for all web sites, even this one.

Australia recently passed a law requiring Google to KYC Australian account holders to check ages to decide if the user will be allowed to control the "safe search" setting.

Why don't users just share passwords? Assuming no credit cards attached to the account, serms no reason not to.
