This age verification stuff is really poorly designed by law makers. That said, the article points out the number of free VPN services with ad blockers are a problem. Couldn’t they run their own free VPN services that enables access and keeps the ads?

Seems like porn VPN would be popular.

No, because law-abiding companies can't offer tools to circumvent the law.

As the article says, all this means is that law-abiding porn sites (that, for example, respond to requests to delete CSAM and revenge porn) will go bankrupt and everybody will be driven to sketchypron.xxx instead.

So radar detectors for cars don't exist?

They're not sold by car companies, and they're illegal in many countries.
