Pornhub Plans to Bypass Ofcom's UK Age Verification Rules by January
Nov 26, 2024, 03:01 PM
Pornhub is reportedly planning to bypass Ofcom's upcoming age verification requirements for adult websites by asserting that it does not classify itself as a pornography provider. The age verification checks, set to take effect in January, are part of the UK's regulatory efforts to ensure stricter controls on access to adult content. This move has sparked criticism, as it raises concerns about the platform's compliance with regulations aimed at protecting minors.

Meanwhile, other adult platforms, such as Cumlouder, are implementing their own age verification systems ahead of the new rules. The Telegraph first reported this development as an exclusive.
