Years ago the .xxx TLD was introduced for adult websites.
If we’re going to regulate adult sites. Why not require them to use .xxx for their domains and let parental controls do the rest?
That’s exactly a security concern from a design point of view. Your desire to trivialize it doesn’t change its nature, access control is access control. That’s not what DNS is for and making it do that is going to cause everyone regret.
You’re not wrong. But if I had to pick between blocking .xxx on my kid’s device or uploading a photo of my ID to various porn sites, I know which one I’m choosing.
“I want people to accept a bogus solution so this will all just go away.” Okay? But surely you can appreciate that people are not likely to be moved by your bad faith suggestions.

Because that’s not authoritarian enough.
Daddy state gonna protect your children for you…
Just like they did with the Catholic church, trust me bro
Shit. Dark but fair.
DNS for security? What could possibly go wrong…
We’re not taking about security. We’re taking about unsupervised children seeing boobies.

Access to .xxx domains can be mandated to require detection of parental controls, and needing proper age verification if they are not in use.
Or I am missing some design problem here?
This is a parents are too lazy to parent concern not a security concern.
