Recent developments in the United States have seen a significant increase in the number of states enacting age-verification laws for pornography websites. While Texas has been in the spotlight for its legislation, it is important to note that it is not alone in this endeavor.
Over the past two and a half years, a total of 19 states, collectively representing more than a third of the American population, have passed laws mandating that pornographic websites verify users' ages through various methods such as checking government-issued IDs or utilizing facial recognition technology.
