Ofcom has launched investigations into two pornographic websites it believes may be falling foul of the UK’s newly introduced child safety rules.
The regulator said Itai Tech Ltd – which operates a so-called ”nudifying” site – and Score Internet Group LLC had failed to detail how they were preventing children from accessing their platforms.
Ofcom announced in January that, in order to comply with the Online Safety Act, all websites on which pornographic material could be found must introduce ”robust” age-checking techniques from July.
It said the two services it was investigating did not appear to have any effective age checking mechanisms.
Firms found to be in breach of the Act face huge fines.
