Pornhub, Stripchat and XVideos will need to abide by the European Union's strictest digital regulations after they were designated "very large online platforms" (VLOPs) by the EU executive on Wednesday.
The three adult content companies join the likes of Facebook, Instagram, Google and Elon Musk's X on the bloc's list of platforms with more than 45 million average monthly users in the EU.
Brussels will now be able to police the sites' compliance with its strictest set of rules under the landmark Digital Services Act (DSA), including on protecting minors and addressing the dissemination of illegal content.

So, they expect users to provide a piece of ID to access porn? What a massive breach of privacy. Imagine a data leak, they will be able to tell who whatches what kind of porn. Do you want the world to know all your kinks? And I absolutely do not trust a porn site to keep my ID safe and secure. This is just a way to get porn sites out of EU because they know that no one will be giving their info even if you are over 18.
France almost had this, but with the government's auth platform (FranceConnect) acting as a third party to confirm the user's age without giving away their identity to the site.
Which would require me to trust the government with my porn preferences. Yeah, what could go wrong.
For that reason go for the extra spicy stuff, no one will believe you are into clown p0rn.
I like this idea.
In many of the conservative-run US states this is already the case
