  1. “We want your ID, give us your ID you can trust us, honest”.

  2. Seems like they are trying to get as many users signed up before 2nd Feb as possible.

  3. >In a call on Tuesday, leadership at Aylo and **Ethical Capital Partners (ECP)**, which acquired Aylo in 2023, said that after six months of complying with the UK’s Online Safety Act, it’s made the choice to restrict access in the country entirely.

    >“We have seen six months of failure out of the United Kingdom, once again, not because OFCOM is failing, but because the law is failing,” Friedman said. “And for that reason, from the ECP perspective, as the ownership group of Aylo, **we want laws around the world that protect children**.”

    Wasn’t this the same website that had so much child pornography and revenge porn, they opted to just delete all non-verified videos than actually moderate??

  4. I’m okay – I live in Poland, or maybe Hungary, or was it Bosnia, oh, Croatia …. I get about …

  5. Hope more companies restrict access to us so our dumb as shit government gets the message that the OSA is a bunch of bullshit.

    In the meantime get a VPN.

  6. I, for one, am looking forward to a new golden age of tatty porno mags returning to British hedgerows.

  7. Well, they can have my face if they want it. I didn’t know why, I certainly don’t.

  8. Are there any other porn sites that won’t be available?

    Asking for a friend.

  9. You can’t access it now unless you give over your identity 

  10. The Online safety act is failing in so many ways. This is 1 more example. A site that for the most part followed rules (for checks, content and even consent etc before OSA) and had vanila porn is now going to block UK as its just to much cost\hasle\risk.

    The only reason they bothered in the first place was that they had (like a lot of the larger more reputable ones that also followed the rules) a presence\offices or similar in the UK so risk was that they could be fined

    This left all the others (the smaller\more dodgy sites ) that did not have a UK presence available to UK viewers and these sites contained everything not just vanila but extreme including animal . They are still there, still accessible and even more popular because they dont require age checks

    Now they want to do the same for VPN… Which will again effect the big companies or the UK based ones whilst allowing the more dodgy ones to thrive..

  11. Kind of ironic considering the country is run by wankers.

  12. I’ve been in Estonia for a few months now. This doesn’t affect me here in Stockport

  13. Plenty of sites that host porn without any of the (frankly limited) filtering or safeguards that pornhub has that I guess the UK goverment wants people to use instead?

  14. Fortunately I still have Mrs Brown’s tits in the wank bank. Circa 1980.
