IMHO, with a little anecdotal evidence to back it up, this is a smoke screen. there is no such thing as an "honest" purveyor of porn. They do care to stay out of the way of law enforcement, but their real desire is to sell more.

An online pornography site is going to be hard-pressed to find lots of minors with access to their own credit cards. Yes, their motives for age-checks may be motivated heavily by existing laws, but so what?

As for a desire to "sell more" -- that's the desire of just about any company that sells a product or service. That's called "capitalism".

True, but until recently people had internal moral restraints against doing "whatever it takes" to increase sales. Never so for pornographers. These days there isn't much internal restraint on anyone.

As for minors with access - just hang around a while.

Shalom.
