DESCRIPTION:Protecting children from porn: Attorney General Todd Rokita fil
 es lawsuit against websites allegedly violating age verification law\n\nAtt
 orney General Todd Rokita is suing the operators of approximately 50 pornog
 raphic websites\, alleging they have violated Indiana’s age-verification la
 w and chosen instead to deliberately expose children to their obscene and s
 exually explicit images and videos.\n\nThe content made available to childr
 en by the defendants — all of whom are associated with a multinational porn
 ographic conglomerate known as Aylo — includes sexual violence\, choking\, 
 rape fantasies\, sex slavery and sex with teen girls.\n\n“We know for a fac
 t\, from years of research\, that adolescent exposure to pornography carrie
 s severe physical and psychological harms\,” Attorney General Rokita said. 
 “It makes boys more likely to perpetrate sexual violence and girls more lik
 ely to be sexually victimized. Yet\, despite such realities\, these defenda
 nts seem intent on peddling their pornographic perversions to Hoosier kids.
 ”\n\nIn addition to Indiana’s age-verification law\, the lawsuit also alleg
 es the defendants violated the state’s Deceptive Consumer Sales Act in seve
 ral ways: 1) by making false and misleading statements regarding the access
 ibility of the pornographic websites by Indiana residents and 2) by mislead
 ing consumers about their alleged hosting of Child Sexual Abuse Material (C
 SAM) and Nonconsensual Material (NCM).\n\nThe lawsuit is available here.\n\
