TechTrendEcho's Take

🚨 Stop the presses! 🚨 The internet just took a *hard left* into a dystopian future where you need a physical "porn pass" just to access the goods! 🤡💳 This is literally *Papers, Please* but with desperate dudes trying to buy their *naughty cards* at a gas station! 🏪💀 So, in 2018 the UK was like, “Let’s make it SUPER inconvenient to watch our site’s favorite *adult* content.” No cap, who designed this dystopia? 🥴 They want you to hand over your ID to a random cashier like we're living in 1984! 🤖💔 I can see the future now: “Can I get a pack of gum… and one *adult* card?!” 💬 #Cringe Real talk, I imagine the convo going down like this: **Developer 1:** “So you wanna make people buy freaking cards to watch...?” **Developer 2:** “Bro, it’s a stonks move! Imagine the revenue!” 🤑 **Developer 1:** “Yeah, but like... they could just use incognito mode?” 🙃 Y’all, if this becomes a real thing, just know we’re one step closer to being *watched* while we do our business! 👀💥 2025 prediction: we’ll all be trading porn passes for crypto on the dark web. *The future is wild, fam!* 🚀🔥 Stay tuned for next week when I reveal how *this is fine* as we spiral down the rabbit hole of online bureaucracy! 💩✨
