    Haha, “backlash”. Yeah, sure.

    People don’t give a shit, they will forget that it’s happening once news articles move to a different flavor of the week topics.

    And the people that get into a choice of “prove with a photo/Id you are old enough or you can’t watch this video” will just begrudgingly comply and never think about it again.

      'member that 1 offhand comment you made in anger, anonymously, 17 years ago? of course you don’t but the internet does.

      people might wait until it personally affects them, as is usually the case, but I think you vastly underestimate how much people really don’t want their post history linked to their real identity.
