Ofcom has fined a porn company £1.35m for failing to introduce proper age verification measures on its websites.
The media regulator said 8579 LLC's sites did not have "highly effective" methods to check UK visitors were over 18 and prevent children accessing the content.
It is also requiring 8579 LLC to provide Ofcom with a complete list of all sites it operates, after failing to respond to the regulator's information requests.
Ofcom has already launched probes into many porn sites lacking age checks and handed down decisions, including fines, for some.
