Florida Sets Its Lawsuit Sights On Porn Games
"According to Uthmeier, all three websites have skirted the responsibility of ensuring that people visiting them are at least 18 years old. As such, he's serving them fresh lawsuits to ostensibly make examples out of them. "Florida is committed to being the best place to raise children," Uthmeier said in a press release. "We passed strong legislation to keep kids from being exposed to harmful and toxic material, and instead of following it, these platforms ignored it. We are taking them to court to make sure they cannot continue bypassing Florida's common sense safeguards.""
"Gethins Limited is the distributor of Lustyheroes, while Aylo is the parent company behind Nutaku and SpiceVids (as well as Pornhub). Although Gethins Limited has yet to publicly comment on the lawsuit, Aylo said both Nutaku and SpiceVids have complied with the legislation since it went into effect earlier this year. "We intend to vigorously defend against these allegations in court," Aylo told the Tallahassee Democrat. "These platforms are committed to ongoing compliance with applicable state laws. We look forward to presenting the facts through the appropriate legal process.""
Florida's attorney general filed two lawsuits targeting Lustyheroes and the parent company of Nutaku and SpiceVids for alleged violations of HB 3, the state law requiring explicit websites to verify Florida users' ages. The suits claim the sites skirted responsibilities to ensure visitors are at least 18, prompting legal action to enforce compliance. Gethins Limited distributes Lustyheroes; Aylo owns Nutaku, SpiceVids, and Pornhub. Aylo says Nutaku and SpiceVids have complied and will vigorously defend against the allegations. The law went into effect in January amid broader Republican efforts to curb online porn exposure to minors.
