In response to new French regulations mandating age verification for adult sites, Pornhub, Redtube, and Youporn will suspend content display and instead show a statement on these regulations. The law aims to protect minors, requiring sites to verify users' ages through credit cards or IDs. Aylo, the parent company, supports age verification but criticizes the law as potentially privacy-infringing. Deputy Minister Clara Chappaz emphasizes the necessity of protecting children without stigmatizing adult users, defending the new standard's privacy measures.
We're not stigmatizing adults who want to consume this content, but we mustn't do so at the expense of protecting our children.
Alyo has said that it is in favor of age verification, but says it should be done on the devices used rather than on the websites visited.
