Claude is no longer available for minors

Anthropic restricts Claude consumer accounts to users 18 and over, using detection signals and third-party Yoti verification to confirm age when minor activity is suspected.

Anthropic's support documentation states the Claude consumer product is available only to users over 18, and accounts flagged by minor-activity detection systems must verify age before continuing. Verification is handled by third-party provider Yoti through ID documents, selfies, or other accepted methods; Anthropic receives only a pass/fail result and never sees or stores the ID or images. Flagged accounts remain disabled until verification is passed, at which point they are reinstated.

Pornhub's Parent Company to Pay $120 Million to Settle Child Sexual Abuse Lawsuits

Pornhub parent Aylo will pay $120 million settling child sexual abuse class actions, without admitting liability, and adopt stricter content moderation commitments.

Aylo, Pornhub's parent company (formerly Mindgeek, acquired by Ethical Capital Partners in 2023), will pay $120 million to settle two 2021 class actions in California and Alabama alleging its platforms hosted child sexual abuse material in violation of federal trafficking and child imagery laws. The settlement fund begins with $25 million in 2026 followed by six annual installments. The class covers anyone under 18 appearing in content on Mindgeek-operated sites between February 12, 2011 and December 6, 2024. The deal, subject to court approval, adds commitments to age-verify models, conduct human and automated content review, and report suspected abuse material to authorities.
