Two porn sites investigated for suspected age check failings
Briefly

Ofcom has initiated investigations into two pornographic websites, Itai Tech Ltd and Score Internet Group LLC, for potentially violating the UK's Online Safety Act by lacking effective age-checking measures. The Act mandates all pornographic sites to implement robust age-verification techniques. The investigation stems from these platforms not demonstrating compliance or addressing Ofcom's inquiries. While many adult content providers have successfully submitted plans for age assurance, the lack of response from the two companies raises concerns about child safety online, prompting calls for stricter regulations.
