The Paris Appeal Court has mandated the blocking of four pornographic websites—Xhamster, Tukif, Mrsexe, and Iciporno—following a ruling emphasizing the need to protect children from adult content. The decision, invoked by child protection associations, highlights the lack of age verification methods employed by these sites. While the court insists on maintaining the block until better verification is established, it has limited this action to sites based outside the EU. Reactions range from government officials considering it a win for child safety to skeptics questioning its overall efficacy amid numerous unregulated sites.
