UK Government’s New Porn Age-Checker Can Be Sidestepped In Seconds

4707352284_1e4de7d166_zUK just became the first country in the world to use a mandatory age-verification system for adult websites. The move is intended to stop children from accessing X-rated material online—but the system can be sidestepped in seconds using a simple Google search and fake verification details. Porn sites will have to sign up to one of a series of age-checker services available online, which has sparked companies to jostle for contracts with site owners.

Websites that fail to implement age-verification technology face having payment services withdrawn or being blocked for UK users. However, after a quick google, a Guardian reporter was able to verify themselves as an adult on well-known site AgeChecked.com, who claimed the system works by requiring that people provide a form of ID, an age-verified telephone number, or a credit card, per the new government rules. AgeChecked.com responded to the Guardian with: “That’s quite interesting … That’s within the capabilities of someone relatively young. I think we’re going to swap that method out.”
