Pornhub is restored in France — for now


France's age-verification law has been suspended.

The French government believes it has followed this process by notifying Cyprus, where Aylo (owner of platforms like Pornhub, YouPorn, and Redtube) and XHamster is based, and waiting three months before implementing the law. "While important questions about the implementation of the law in France are being considered, we maintain that French citizens deserve regulation that will prevent children from accessing adult content and that can be effectively enforced," Aylo stated over email. Aylo advocated for device-level filters to block minors from accessing porn, citing privacy concerns of on-site age-verification.
