If *and* when this actually becomes law, THEN start a thread about it. As for now, there is nothing to say, because it isn't even at a proposal stage.
Added to which, if it becomes illegal for porn to be viewed in the UK by people that can't age verify with a credit card, fucking happy days!
Certainly hasn't damaged phone sex sales.

It is already law. Atvod makes no distinction between video that is delivered as part of traditional vod site, or as a membership site. The business model is irrelevent. If you show adult content on a website that delivers non-linear audio visual material you must ensure that minors cannot view this material. This includes ads, tours, and trailures that are viewed before the paywall.
What you also need to take into account is that this is not UK law, but actually EU law. It applys in every EU state. The thing about the uk is that they have started to police the new regs and prosecute offenders. The rest of the EU is duty bound to do the same over the coming year.
Google AVMSD, its is very scary for anyone running an adult business from the EU.
The EU has decided that it will govern web content in the same was as TV content. This is massive for the adult business.
Damian, you are quite badly informed the new regulations of the adult business.
