Recent legal challenges are pushing toward stricter regulations on online pornography, aligning it more with traditional laws applying to physical adult materials. A Texas age-verification law is under scrutiny by the Supreme Court, with justices questioning why online access shouldn't require similar ID checks as brick-and-mortar stores. The outcome could signify a significant shift in internet regulation, as the current lenient framework has allowed minors unrestricted access to adult content, which contrasts sharply with stringent laws governing access to physical adult materials.
This time around, the justices seemed inclined to erase the distinction between accessing porn online and in person.
If the Court indeed allows Texas's law to stand, it will mark a turning point in the trajectory of internet regulation.
