The U.S. Supreme Court has upheld a Texas law requiring age verification for accessing pornographic websites, rejecting challenges that it violates free speech rights. The law mandates that users verify their age with government-issued IDs like a driver's license or passport. This decision follows a settlement where Chaturbate, a leading adult camming site, agreed to pay Texas $675,000 for non-compliance with the law. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton emphasized that the law aims to protect minors from accessing adult content.
