    Oh, this one has the fingerprints of the age verification people all over it. It’s just that instead of the government mandating it directly (at great political cost because nobody wants it) they’ve set up a commission given the task of studying the question of what should be done to “protect the children” and making regulations as it sees fit. The age verification lobby, anti-porn crusaders, and giant social media companies will battle for control of the new regulator in this new venue made just for them.
