Pornhub, OnlyFans and Major Cams Platforms Confront Italy’s New Age-Check Rules

Italy has formally named 45 porn and porn-adjacent websites that must introduce stricter age verification from November 12, 2025, as the country becomes the latest to tighten access to adult content.


The Italian communications regulator AGCOM has published a list of services it classifies as providing pornographic material in Italy. The roster includes Aylo-owned platforms Pornhub, Redtube, and YouPorn, along with xHamster, camming site Chaturbate, and subscription giant OnlyFans, among others.

Under the new framework, all sites on the list will be required to verify that users connecting from Italy are 18 or older through certified third-party providers. These verification partners may include dedicated age-check services, banks, or mobile operators that already hold verified customer data. Crucially, the process is expected to be repeated each time a user visits one of the listed platforms, rather than operating as a one-time verification per site, as is the case in some other markets, such as the UK.

Italy’s legal basis for porn age verification came into force in May, but platforms were granted a grace period until November 12. Only now has the full list of affected services been disclosed, and it features many of the industry’s largest brands. The move comes as critics of age verification argue that strict regimes tend to push traffic away from the biggest, more heavily scrutinized platforms and toward smaller sites that may be less compliant or less transparent.

In the UK, where tougher age checks for porn access were introduced in July, Pornhub has claimed that traffic from the country fell by 77 percent after the new rules took effect. According to parent company Aylo, users are not abandoning adult content altogether but are instead gravitating toward platforms that have not yet implemented – or are not yet being forced to implement – comparable verification systems.

Subsequent traffic data has indicated that, as visits to major porn brands decreased, some smaller adult sites experienced a corresponding rise in UK user numbers. At the same time, the UK regulator Ofcom has opened investigations into a range of pornography services, including lesser-known sites it alleges are not complying with the updated rules.

In Italy, platforms that appear on AGCOM’s list and fail to adopt compliant age verification procedures by November 12 risk facing penalties of up to 250,000 euros (around 290,000 US dollars). Observers expect that the regulator will add more services to the list over time as enforcement develops and new sites are identified.

Italy is also one of five EU member states that have piloted an age verification application developed by the European Commission. The tool is intended to provide a privacy-preserving way to prove that a user is over 18, with potential future use in porn age verification systems across the bloc.

Chaturbate Introduces Auto Translate for Public Chat

Chaturbate has introduced Auto Translate, a new feature designed to help creators and viewers communicate more easily across different languages.

The update translates public chat messages in real time, making it easier for international viewers to follow conversations, join the room activity and feel more connected to the community. For creators, this can mean more engagement, more interaction and new regulars from audiences who may have been watching quietly before.

Auto Translate works individually for each user. Creators and viewers can each choose their own preferred language, and messages will appear translated for them personally. For example, one viewer can read the chat in Portuguese, while the creator sees it in their selected language, without changing the experience for anyone else.

Chaturbate says the feature is designed to keep the natural tone of conversation, including slang, emojis and the flow of chat, so messages feel more like real communication rather than basic word-for-word translation.

Creators can enable the feature by opening chat settings, finding the Auto Translate section below ChaturSafe, turning it on, and selecting their preferred language.

At launch, Auto Translate is available only in public chat, with support for direct messages planned for a future update.

The new feature gives Chaturbate creators a simple way to connect with a wider global audience, reduce language barriers, and encourage more viewers to take part in the room.
