British man claims he’s unable to watch porn as tattoos confuse age check system
‘Britain’s most tattooed man’ has claimed that he has been unable to pass the newly rolled out age-checks for p*rn sites as his facial ink is mistaken for a mask.
King Of Ink Land King Body Art The Extreme Ink-Ite has written to his local MP to air his grievances.
The 45-year-old from Birmingham has spent over 1,600 hours under the needle, but his look is now causing an issue with accessing sexy content.
Since Friday, 25 July, porn sites in the UK must conduct strict age checks to ensure users are over the age of 18.
This includes supplying a credit card and a photo ID that matches a selfie.
For King of Ink Land, this is particularly tricky as the system believes he’s wearing a mask – but it’s actually his tattoo-covered face.
“It keeps asking me to remove my face,” the entrepreneur told Need To Know.
“I can’t just do a Nicholas Cage or John Travolta like in Face Off.
“All this proves is that technology and AI are discriminatory and not set up for people with facial tattoos.”
The King of Ink Land, who is now considering using a VPN, was attempting to access a live webcam site when the issue arose.
At the moment, he feels stuck with no clear solution.
He said, “I feel like I’m being punished for being me.
“No matter how different or alternative you look, there is no place for discrimination – especially from technology.”
As he can’t access the p*rn content he wants right now, King of Ink Land has turned to a few friends in the industry to get his sexy fix.
He added, “I’m used to having my ID declined sometimes because of my legal name and tattoos.
“But constantly asking me to remove my ‘mask’ is frustrating.
“This is who I am; Why is it trying to change me?”
