This follows several other delays of the proposed law, which has also raised privacy concerns about who will have access to the personal details of porn users. Options being put forward in the UK include requiring adult users to buy a special card over the counter at a newsagents, where they will be asked to show photo ID to verify their age. The card will have a code on it that can be used to access the site.
Websites who don’t adhere to the system risk being blocked, although UK government officials have admitted that this would prove difficult to enforce.
