It sounds impractical, but I have a technical background and see lots of potential problems in how to implement it.

Same way they handle kiddie porn. If they find out you're not following the rules, you're going to jail.

I'm also something of an originalist with regard to the Constitution, and I don't know of any enumerated power of the federal government that would cover this.

Interstate commerce. The Feds have the power to regulate it. Last time I checked, porn was a multi-billion dollar industry.

I said "originalist". Madison's Commerce Clause, not FDR's.

James Madison to Joseph C. Cabell

13 Feb. 1829

Letters 4:14--15

For a like reason, I made no reference to the "power to regulate commerce among the several States." I always foresaw that difficulties might be started in relation to that power which could not be fully explained without recurring to views of it, which, however just, might give birth to specious though unsound objections. Being in the same terms with the power over foreign commerce, the same extent, if taken literally, would belong to it. Yet it is very certain that it grew out of the abuse of the power by the importing States in taxing the non-importing, and was intended as a negative and preventive provision against injustice among the States themselves, rather than as a power to be used for the positive purposes of the General Government, in which alone, however, the remedial power could be lodged.
