So they’re collecting photos of minors who are most likely naked to protect those minors from the dangers of porn? Flawless work; the children are now safe.

It will probably say "by taking selfie I confirm that I am older than 18 or at least wear clothes" so it's fine (legally (maybe))

If you read the article it's not about naked selfies, it's about verifying the age of people visiting porn sites

I saw a sign up/pay wall so I didn’t bother, but on principle this is fucked up enough to baselessly mock.
