Excerpt:
Gov. Mark Gordon, R, signed House Bill 43 into law on Thursday to make Wyoming the latest state to implement an age verification requirement aimed at restricting access to harmful online content for any child under the age of 18.
Unlike similar laws in other states that primarily target adult entertainment platforms, HB 43 has a much broader scope. The law applies to any website that hosts “material harmful to minors,” expanding the range of online content subject to age verification requirements.
Under this definition, “material harmful to minors” includes “any picture, image, graphic image file, film, videotape, or other visual depiction that is obscene or is child pornography.” This classification extends to material that is already illegal to distribute under existing laws.
