PornHub will require a driver’s license to view its videos
The access of minors to websites with erotic or adult content is a concern that has been in force for several years, therefore, several websites have tried to implement different security measures to prevent children from entering portals that they are not suitable for them.
Despite the different efforts that have emerged from sites with adult content and other platforms that operate on the Internet, in the state of Louisiana (USA) a controversial measure has begun to take force to guarantee that only those of legal age can consume erotic content on the web.
The proposal is based on a new age verification system based on Louisiana’s digital wallet system, which includes the digital driver’s license issued in that state. According to a portal report TechCrunch, Pornhub, one of the most popular adult entertainment sites in the world, would have already begun to implement this measure.
Thus, if this measure prospers and becomes a general rule, this measure will eventually netizens who wish to access erotic content will have to use their driver’s license as a means of identification and proof of age.
What will the access to sites with adult content be like?
It should be noted that Pornhub has not yet issued an official statement in which it offers specific details on how it would apply the new age verification policy. But a series of videos and screenshots have begun to circulate on Twitter where it is stated that the adult web portal is already requesting users to access the service through the identification system associated with the digital wallet from Louisiana.
Therefore, only users who have a state-issued driver’s license will be able to use their digital wallet to access the content offered by this web portal.

It should be noted that Pornhub is a website that has openly revealed that it collects data from its users, which is used as a resource to analyze consumption habits and better understand the audiences that visit the portal. In fact, the brand usually generates an annual report where it exposes information on trends and preferences in erotic content by gender and country.
However, the Louisiana government has stated that private companies cannot obtain additional data on the identity of users who enter their erotic content portals.
