The owner of Pornhub has suspended access to the website for users in France because of its objections to a new French law requiring pornographic sites to verify the age of their users, the country's communications regulator said Tuesday.
Pornhub has announced its decision to exit the French market due to a new age verification law that requires users to prove their age before accessing adult content. The law, which aims to protect minors from exposure to pornography, mandates the use of government-issued identification or other age verification methods. Pornhub's parent company, Aylo, stated that the law poses significant privacy and security risks to users and that the company is unable to comply with the regulation while maintaining user anonymity. As a result, Pornhub will block access to its website for users in France starting July 1, 2025, joining a growing list of countries where the platform has ceased operations due to similar legislation.
