BREAKING! Pornography Websites SUED for Violating Age Verification Laws

The NCOSE Law Center has filed the

first U.S. lawsuits suing pornography websites allowing children to access their site,

in violation of state age verification laws.

The lawsuits are filed on behalf of Q.R., a Kansas boy who was exposed to several hardcore pornography sites at the age of 14, despite the state’s law requiring pornography websites verify the age of users.

Q.R.’s mother had done everything right.

She took great care to lock down and monitor all her son’s devices. Yet he found an old laptop in the closet, and spiraled into compulsive pornography use.

Kids Online Safety Act reintroduced — with Apple's support!

The Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA), a bill that is vital to protect children online, was reintroduced in the Senate after failing to pass in the last Congressional session. Despite its overwhelming support, passing the Senate 91-3 last year, the bill was never even put up for a vote in the House.

This year, KOSA must pass.

“Every day, children are exposed to harms online, targeted with sextortion threats, groomed by predators, fed dangerous content.

Kids are dying while Big Tech avoids all accountability.

It’s beyond time for Kids Online Safety Act!”

said Dr. Marcel van der Watt, president of the National Center on Sexual Exploitation.

KOSA ensures tech platforms prioritize children's online safety by establishing a Duty of Care, requiring them to design products responsibly to protect minors. It also mandates safeguards and parental tools to shield children from harmful content and predatory behavior.

These Internal Documents Show Why We Shouldn’t Trust Porn Companies

 "What goes through the minds of people working at porn companies profiting from videos of children being raped?"

writes Nicholas Kristof, journalist for the New York Times, in his most recent investigative piece against Pornhub.

Thousands of internal documents from Pornhub were mistakenly released due to a filing error by a Federal District Court in Alabama. These documents reveal Pornhub employees were well-aware of the exploitative content being promoted on their site: 

“I hope I never get in trouble for having those vids on my computer LOOOOL,”

one

staff member messaged another.

“There is A LOT of very, very obvious and disturbing CSAM here.” CSAM stands for child sexual abuse material,"

another wrote.
