"Originally published March 14 by Idaho Reports.The Idaho Senate passed legislation Thursday that would make online pornography publishers and distributors vulnerable to civil liability if a minor accesses harmful material on the internet.
“Our kids are continuously exposed to pornography, and our current laws don’t effectively protect them,” said bill sponsor Sen. Ben Toews, R-Coeur d’Alene. “What you have before you is an effective solution. It uses third-party age verification as a way to block that content from children.”
House Bill 498 would require websites where at least one-third of the content is pornographic to perform “reasonable age verification” to prevent minors from accessing the harmful material. The House unanimously passed the bill on Feb. 14."
