The majority of those are coming across it accidentally

I used to accidentally find nudie mags in the woods with my friends. Why didn’t these guys do anything for me and my forest safety?
-
Kids these days will never get to experience the joy of finding woods porn.
-
Gen Z here. Only "age-inappropriate" things I found in the woods were condoms and syringes :(
-
When we were kids, we used to collect paper to get money for school trips and such. For us it was minly to find porn and find out who has a LOT of porn at home.
-
Wait, people would just give you their porn to recycle or whatever you did with the paper to turn it into school trips? You'd figure they'd be a bit more discreet in how they got rid of their porn, like hiding it in a box in the woods.
-
They didn't give a fuck. People who had porn back then had A LOT of porn. I assume they had multible subscriptions to get porn weekly. I assume, i can't remember they kinda hid it under some newspaper, but if you have one newspaper for every 10 porn magazines, it's kinda hard to hide.

WTAF - I thought it was just us that struck gold. I mean, the magazines were sort of damp (from the forest!! From the forest!!) but we COULD not believe our luck when we found that motherload in the forest.

Well as I say nature provides

Who leaves it there though? And it was always years out of date.
Is there a jazz mag fairy we weren't told about? "You need to behave now, otherwise the porn fairy won't leave a 1984 copy of Readers Wives in the elderberry tree!"

Outside the box solution: don't age restrict access to porn. Every teenager is going to get it anyway.
-
Couldn't agree more if I cared to try.
Methinks this is much more about controlling and surveilling adults than "protecting" children from porn. If it was ever really about the latter at all.
-
It's about the latter but it doesn't have to work, just looks like you took action to solve a Daily Mail agenda..

Teenagers would get porn before the Internet. Before printed porn they'd carve it into cave walls. The "fertility goddesses" they find all over the neolithic are probably porn.
-
Back in the days before the internet they just cranked their hog to this.

We'll... I mean... it doesn't exactly accidentally come out of you. You have to be touching it for some time.

Lonely Island would beg to differ
