  "textContent": "$10,000 per offense? If it does pass, someone should sue NY for violation of the Eighth Amendment. Also, any type of age verification system that requires you to show your face or ID violates the rights to anonymity, thus violating the First Amendment (it has been ruled before that anonymity is a First Amendment right), as well as the right to privacy.\n\nIn other words, this bill is a blatant violation of the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights. Same goes with the \"You must check the kid-friendly checkbox on kid-friendly Youtube videos, or be fined $42,000\" law. That one is even more in violation of the Eighth Amendment, as it imposes a huge fine on those who don't check that checkbox, and it's enough money to buy a new car. Instead, they need to make it completely optional to check that box, as people have a fundamental right not to check it. Seriously, the fine should be abolished for that, and I'm hoping that NY bill doesn't pass.\n\nIt's weird how lawmakers use the \"Think of the children\" argument. As someone on Reddit said, that's what pedophiles do all the time, in a twisted and extremely evil way. It should be up to the parents to protect children from these offenders on the Internet, not the governments. Just keep an eye on what websites they access, and who they chat with. Do NOT let them access the Internet unattended.\n\n* * *",
