More than a dozen states have enacted new laws aimed at restricting pornography, prompting the Supreme Court to weigh in on the implications of such measures. This month, the Court will hear crucial arguments regarding these porn bans, as cases like Free Speech Coalition v. Paxton bring to light the tension between protecting minors and upholding free speech. Texas, in particular, is facing scrutiny over its law requiring age verification for pornographic content, with experts noting the high bar set for defending such legislation. The outcomes of these deliberations could significantly impact online content access and shape future age verification laws.
