Economic Times · 1y

The European Union has added adult content companies Pornhub, Stripchat, and XVideos to its list of firms subject to stringent regulations under the new online content rules known as the Digital Services Act (DSA). These rules require companies to conduct risk management, undergo external auditing, and share data with authorities. Designated companies will have to do more to tackle disinformation, protect users, and ensure stronger protection for children or face fines of up to 6% of their global turnover. Pornhub, Stripchat, and XVideos will need to adopt measures to protect users and mitigate risks within four months.
