What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Ofcom, the UK's digital regulator, announced it has opened a new regulatory investigation into Aylo's adult website, Pornhub.com. The probe focuses on age checks implemented through device-based age assurance on Apple iOS devices, such as iPhones and iPads. The regulator is seeking to determine if these checks are 'highly effective' in preventing minors from accessing adult content, as required by the UK's Online Safety Act of 2023. Ofcom stated that its initial assessment found no clear indicator that Aylo had complied with its duties regarding children and pornography.
