Don't you guys have some form of government ID that almost anybody can forge? Or is it an old thing?

You mean Adhaar ? If yes then, it is still valid and effectively used.

Great. Can you forge a new one? Get a new ID. Make yourself 10yrs younger/older.
Then watch all the porn you want.
Simple.

Impossible. Adhaar must be updated within 10 years and even i need adhaar for purchasing a sim card or having a bank account. Keeping a fake or impersonated adhaar is a crime. They don't allow it, until someone notices it.
