Its on both sides of the relationship, parent and porn provider. Same as with alcohol and tobacco, if you don't have parents doing their part, those kids end up with that stuff anyways.
Brick and mortar shops aren't comparable to websites, and I don't know why you keep trying to compare them. The places that sell alcohol and tobacco aren't asking me to upload a digital version of my legal identification to some cloud-backed database. They're just manually checking a date and a picture. Most places I buy from don't even make me physically hand over my ID, I can just show it to them without it ever leaving my possession.
You've never had your I'd scanned at a store before? How do you think all that works?
