Age Verification on Adult Sites: Why It Doesn’t Work

This week in Texas, new regulations will demand age verification for visitors on adult websites. Although such laws aim to prevent minors from accessing inappropriate content, they may inadvertently generate larger problems.

Age Verification in Practice
Texas becomes the seventh state to tackle this age verification issue. The upcoming HB 1181 stipulates that platforms with explicit content must utilize “reasonable age-verification methods”. These can range from photos of government IDs to using transactional data to ascertain age. The legislation targets platforms where over a third of the content is considered harmful for minors.

However, privacy concerns arise when such verification methods are employed. Storing personal identification information can create a lucrative target for cyberattacks. As seen in the U.K., even when third-party age verification systems are considered, issues emerge. The U.K.’s Open Rights Group has voiced concerns over certain systems that employ facial recognition, pointing out potential risks of collecting children’s biometric data without proper governance.

Australia’s Cautionary Approach
Australia has recently stepped back from implementing similar laws. While they had considered a trial of age-verification technology utilizing electronic tokens, they decided that the infrastructure for such systems required further refinement.

The Challenges of Regulation
Despite any potential verification method, both adults and minors might still find ways to access adult content without identification. Major adult websites might abide by regional laws, but numerous other platforms, especially those based in countries like Russia and China, may not. Moreover, VPNs, which can disguise a user’s actual location, further complicate regional regulations.

The U.K.’s attempt at network-level filters, proposed in 2012, was flawed. These filters failed to restrict certain explicit content while also blocking benign sites. The BCS (Chartered Institute for IT in the U.K.) suggests that governments should be cautious about solely relying on technology to address the issue. They believe the focus should be on educating the young and their guardians about online risks and mitigation, rather than purely on prevention through technology.

Meta Re-trains AI Chatbots to Block “Sensual” Conversations with Teens

Meta is retraining its AI assistant and chatbots after internal guidance revealed the systems could engage in “romantic” or “sensual” exchanges with under-18s. The company has confirmed that this behavior is being restricted immediately, while broader child-safety updates are being prepared.

The adjustment affects Meta AI across Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, where chatbots are being updated not to engage minors in such conversations. Instead, when sensitive topics arise, the AI will direct younger users to professional resources.

In addition, Meta is restricting teen access to some of its more adult-oriented AI characters. The company describes this as part of a wider effort to provide “safe, age-appropriate experiences” for minors, with further updates promised in the months ahead.

Why it matters: For the wider online ecosystem—including platforms that adult creators rely on—this signals a tightening of automated moderation and AI safety rules. Stricter boundaries are being built into AI-powered interactions, particularly where younger audiences may be exposed.

Meta has also discontinued certain chatbot characters following complaints, reinforcing its shift toward a more cautious and regulated approach in AI deployment.

Samsung: Android XR Headset Set to Elevate VR Porn Experience with SLR

Samsung’s upcoming Project Moohan VR headset, built on Google’s new Android XR operating system, is set to launch in 2025 and is already making waves in the world of adult entertainment. Combining key features from Meta’s Quest 3 and Apple’s Vision Pro, this headset is designed for both immersive and mixed reality. It is expected to work seamlessly with top adult platforms.

What Project Moohan Brings to VR Porn

Project Moohan boasts a cutting-edge OLED display with an incredible 5,000 pixels per inch, offering striking clarity that promises to transform the quality of virtual adult content. Powered by the Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 processor, it also includes pancake lenses with automatic IPD adjustment, built-in eye tracking, hand tracking, and a unique passthrough feature with reduced motion blur, delivering a near-lifelike adult VR experience.

With integrated blinders for full immersion, a rigid strap system with a comfort dial, and controller support, the headset emphasizes both performance and comfort. Early testers have noted sharp close-range passthrough visuals and effective hand-tracking—ideal for passthrough adult content experiences.

Where It Falls Short

The headset’s few drawbacks include a smaller field of view compared to Quest 3 and AVP, noticeable brightness fall-off near the screen edges, and lenses that may not outperform its competitors. It also comes with a tethered battery pack, which may reduce freedom of movement for some users. Still, these observations are based on early reports and may improve by launch.

Android XR: A New Platform for Immersive Adult Content

Announced in December 2024, Android XR is Google’s dedicated spatial OS for XR devices. It supports both classic Android apps and new “spatialized” formats, making it an ideal platform for immersive VR porn. The Chrome browser on Android XR is expected to handle spatial content well, allowing users to access sexlikereal.com directly with ease.

SLR users can expect full platform compatibility once the DeoVR app becomes available in the Android XR store. The app will support thousands of scenes and advanced features like build-your-own-journey, passthrough modes, and interactivity with haptic sex toys such as The Handy, enabling complete synchronization with VR porn scripts.

Getting Started with VR Porn on Project Moohan

Using the Samsung Project Moohan headset to stream adult content is expected to be straightforward:

Install the DeoVR app and access sexlikereal.com through the in-app browser, or
Use the headset’s native Chrome browser to log in directly

A premium SLR subscription unlocks the full experience, including streaming high-quality scenes, live cam shows, and integration with haptic devices for full-body immersion.

Passthrough in VR Porn, Upgraded

With superior close-range passthrough visuals and less blur than Apple’s Vision Pro, Samsung’s Project Moohan is poised to deliver an unmatched passthrough adult VR experience. Expect more realistic and engaging scenes that blend the real world with fantasy in ways not previously possible.

As Android XR and Samsung’s Project Moohan evolve, keep an eye on platform updates for further enhancements to the immersive adult experience.
