Starting July 25, 2023, online pornography in the UK will become more regulated, requiring sites to ensure users are 18 or older. Major sites like PornHub and others will implement age verification methods such as ID submission or facial recognition. Ofcom emphasizes the need for these changes to protect children from harmful content, aligning digital access with real-world adult service regulations. Failure to comply could lead to fines or even blocking of non-compliant sites. The move addresses a long-standing issue of online safety for minors.
"According to Oliver Griffiths, Ofcom's group director of online safety, making life safer online 'is one of the defining challenges of our era.'"},{
