Three major pornography sites, Xvideos, Pornhub, and Stripchat, will be subjected to new regulatory curbs under the EU's Digital Services Act (DSA), including stricter requirements on age verification and content moderation. These platforms will be designated as "very large online platforms" and will be required to comply with measures such as implementing age verification systems, taking down illegal content, and undergoing external audits.
