> Yes. Sending your government issued id to random porn sites is asking for your identity to be stolen.
Ah, so you don't understand what's being proposed. Let me clear that up.
The implementation proposed by the EU does not involve your government issued id, but rather an openid style handoff to a trusted government entity, where you verify your identity with your government, followed by a handback along with a proof of your age bracket. The website asking for verification only ever gets to know if you're 16+ or 18+ (or whatever other classification we can make up).
> I can live with revenge porn because it's really amateur porn labelled another way
Fuck you. Get out of here with that shit. Disgusting.
