Is this the way they’ll get people to accept their Digital ID system? They’re pushing porn age verification in the US states as well, so could this be part of a multipronged approach along with a pandemic, CBDC and fighting “misinformation” online. It’s not covered much in mainstream media, but many young people including females are addicted to pornography, and it’s become much more debased to where it interferes with them having normal romantic relationships. Having looked at porn when I was young, it was always disturbing then how they were pushing lesbian sex along with orgies. Looking at our country, it must be on a whole new level of debauchery today, and these people will probably comply with such a system until it’s too late and they see how it damages their social credit score.

Madrid unveils a digital wallet to help porn platforms verify users’ ages.
By Gian Volpicelli
The Spanish government has a plan to prevent kids from watching porn online: Meet the porn passport.
Officially (and drily) called the Digital Wallet Beta (Cartera Digital Beta), the app Madrid unveiled on Monday would allow internet platforms to check whether a prospective smut-watcher is over 18. Porn-viewers will be asked to use the app to verify their age. Once verified, they’ll receive 30 generated “porn credits” with a one-month validity granting them access to adult content. Enthusiasts will be able to request extra credits.
While the tool has been criticized for its complexity, the government says the credit-based model is more privacy-friendly, ensuring that users’ online activities are not easily traceable.
The system will be available by the end of the summer. It will be voluntary, as online platforms can rely on other age-verification methods to screen out inappropriate viewers. It heralds an EU law going into force in October 2027, which will require websites to stop minors from accessing porn.
Eventually, Madrid’s porn passport is likely to be replaced by the EU’s very own digital identity system (eIDAS2) — a so-called wallet app allowing people to access a smorgasbord of public and private services across the whole bloc.
“We are acting in advance and we are asking platforms to do so too, as what is at stake requires it,” José Luis Escrivá, Spain’s digital secretary, told Spanish newspaper El País.
