A lot of sites had to block the UK like Imgur, or completely shut down like Urban Dead, because they aren’t the kajillion dollar companies the UK government thought the Internet was made of. I don’t know why the UK didn’t enforce parental control software instead. OSA is a solution for a problem solved 30 years ago and is just going to destroy the Internet since it’s not possible for the vast majority of it to adhere to its laws.
its mostly surveillance of political dissidents, they dont really care about the porn content, they just want the identies of everyone that is a potential threat to the oligarchy. and PALINTIR has pitched their services to them already.
I just found out today due to work needs that Vimeo already does this.
TBH I didnt know Vimeo was anything like this.

The UK didn‘t do anything properly because that was not the point. They want mass surveillance for their authoritarian police state.
