Secondly, it's the dumbest comparison anyone could possibly make.
The difference with a porn website is as follows:
- the age check on porn sites are notoriously dumb and useless, it's literally a meme. It was a meme before there were memes.
- I choose to go on porn sites. It's not exactly a requirement that I get access to a porn site. Access to my OS on my device to work, have fun or do whatever I want privately is kind of a lot more necessary.

Indeed.

Sure, but that is an entirely different discussion.
Anyway, if you had some actual substance to your flippant dismissal it could perhaps lead to some interesting discussion.
