As someone who knows the UK and EU law a
little bit. Here's my take.
The EU laws allow an individual country to set laws on porn
in their country. So the UK government can legally restrict and censor in the UK without interference from the EU.
However they are not allowed to to restrict
legal porn from another member State being imported into the EU. This is why a UK based porn company has to get an R18 certificate to distribute porn in the UK, excluding online because when the law was passed they thought DVD and Video was all there was or ever will be.
But a Dutch company can mail from Holland a copy of a DVD to a UK address that hasn't got an R18 certificate.
Now how that applies to the Internet and the UK, is down to the lawyers.
I'm not a lawyer, just someone who fell foul of the UK laws on certification and importing into the UK. Even had a debate with a UK Customs official when shipping porn to the UK and told him the law and why he was in the wrong. He agreed.
