💨 Abstract

Starting July 25, UK porn sites must implement age verification to prevent underage access. Methods include ID checks, credit card verification, and AI-driven facial recognition. Major sites like PornHub and OnlyFans have agreed to comply. Research shows significant underage exposure to porn, impacting children's understanding of sex, consent, and relationships. Ofcom will enforce these rules, with hefty fines for non-compliance, aiming to protect children from harmful content.
