Pornhub to restrict access for UK users from February
- On February 2, Aylo will restrict access to Pornhub, RedTube and YouPorn in the United Kingdom, blocking unverified new users while allowing verified users and paid sites access.
- Aylo says the change follows six months under the Online Safety Act, citing the law's failure to stop non-compliant porn sites and a 77% UK traffic drop at Pornhub.
- In Tuesday’s presentation, Solomon Friedman said, `You have a dedicated regulator working in good faith, but unfortunately, the law they are operating under cannot possibly succeed`, highlighting non-compliant Google search results and urging device-level RTA filters.
- Ofcom says it has launched investigations into more than 80 sites and fined a porn provider 1 million, while disputing Aylo’s characterization and continuing dialogue.
- Privacy experts note age-verification can expose sensitive user data, with privacy advocates warning cloud-based checks collect sensitive information and Aylo mirrors its US exit from 25 states where VPNs enable circumvention.
