Pornhub's parent company Aylo will begin enforcing stronger age verification methods in the UK on July 25, following the Online Safety Act's requirements for more robust checks to protect minors. Currently, UK users only confirm their age by clicking a button, which Ofcom states is insufficient. Similar regulations are emerging in the US, with some states mandating government-issued IDs for access to adult sites. Aylo argues that some of these regulations, particularly Florida's, could endanger user privacy and safety by requiring sensitive personal information.
The way many jurisdictions worldwide, including Florida, have chosen to implement age verification is ineffective, haphazard and dangerous.
For too long children have been only a click away from harmful pornography online.
