What the petition asks
Ban porn sites for under 18s and add tougher restrictions for online sexual content, on porn sites, social media is instergram and only fans. Add digital IDs to verify your age.
Mental health is crucial in todays society with the ever growing concerns around people’s mental health. With dating markets on the verge of economic and social collapse, it is vital to maintain a healthy relationship for yourself and others around you. Porn has become a high addiction amongst men and woman, due to the easy access of it and social pressures pushing you to get the quick dopamine hit.
Why it was rejected
The UK Government or Parliament was already taking the action it asked for.
The Online Safety Bill, which is being considered by Parliament, contains provisions that would require all services providing pornographic content to prevent
children from accessing that material (eg through age verification).
