The EU said the sites did not appear to have "appropriate" age verification to stop children accessing porn.

    Years ago the .xxx TLD was introduced for adult websites. If we’re going to regulate adult sites. Why not require them to use .xxx for their domains and let parental controls do the rest?

        We’re not taking about security. We’re taking about unsupervised children seeing boobies.

            You’re not wrong. But if I had to pick between blocking .xxx on my kid’s device or uploading a photo of my ID to various porn sites, I know which one I’m choosing.

                Access to .xxx domains can be mandated to require detection of parental controls, and needing proper age verification if they are not in use.

                Or I am missing some design problem here?
