Are you over 18 years old? This question will no longer be enough for people to access the pornographic pagesat least in the state of Utah, in the United States, where a series of measures are being proposed that include even facial recognition.

Although today sexual content is everywhere on the Internet, even on social networks, the state of Utah has begun to require various measures of identification.

As detailed by the El Español page, the measure includes a long process to confirm identity through facial recognition, the use of national documents and selfie photographs to access these pages.

Now, the new requirement has caused pages like Redtube, Brazzers or Pornhub to stop being available in the state, all belonging to the company Ethical Capital Partners.

Instead, another well-known page called xHamster has been working on verification through the Yoti digital identity platform. It allows facial recognition or the use of an identity document.

The issue revolves around the use of Face ID, which could fall into various bugs or require additional privacy permissions. According to the Yoti platform, all data is encrypted and once the user is registered, the platform informs the website that they are over 18 years of age. The use of information for marketing campaigns is also avoided.
