The war on porn has started up again. For those old enough to remember and those concerned about the attacks on freedom of the past hundred plus years (and not just porn, but right to travel, financial freedom, speech, youths right to work/independence, etc) there is a new case to be decided at the US Supreme Court that could end up restricting your access to porn on the internet (yes again, several supreme court cases of the 90s ruled repeatedly you can't burden adults access to porn for the sake of 'protecting' youth). This law would effectively require sites to ID users as adults if primarily distributing porn. It would not apply to sites like Reddit however and of course you can't enforced anti-porn laws outside your legal jurisdiction anyway making it effectively a mute and stupid law that doesn't 'protect' kids assuming we take the 'think of the children' psycos at their word porn somehow harms kids who are if we are honest with ourselves don't care cause they haven't hit puberty and those that have are NOT children! Not to mention what this law actually does is punish the US operators of porn sites by pushing them to move porn sites to jurisdictions outside the United States or in this case at least Texas:

I think gamedevs should try to port their game to as many platforms as possible. This isn't the days of physical media where you have to buy/produce separate CDs/floppies/cartridges for a different platform and see if they would sell, so there is really no excuse not to port your game to a certain platform anymore. Even if one version doesn't sell, it isn't a loss because it's all information.
