U.K. law now requires pornography websites to verify their users' ages through means such as face scans and driver's licenses; it also requires that online platforms prevent children from being exposed to adult content (which is why sites like Bluesky and Reddit have begun checking some users' ages). To study the law's effect, the Post says it examined the top 90 porn sites based on U.K. visitor data from Similarweb, finding 14 sites that still don't perform an age check.
