Attorney General Todd Rokita is suing the operators of approximately 50 pornographic websites, alleging they have violated Indiana’s age-verification law and chosen instead to deliberately expose children to their obscene and sexually explicit images and videos.
The content made available to children by the defendants — all of whom are associated with a multinational pornographic conglomerate known as Aylo — includes sexual violence, choking, rape fantasies, sex slavery and sex with teen girls.
“We know for a fact, from years of research, that adolescent exposure to pornography carries severe physical and psychological harms,” Attorney General Rokita said. “It makes boys more likely to perpetrate sexual violence and girls more likely to be sexually victimized. Yet, despite such realities, these defendants seem intent on peddling their pornographic perversions to Hoosier kids.”
In addition to Indiana’s age-verification law, the lawsuit also alleges the defendants violated the state’s Deceptive Consumer Sales Act in several ways: 1) by making false and misleading statements regarding the accessibility of the pornographic websites by Indiana residents and 2) by misleading consumers about their alleged hosting of Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) and Nonconsensual Material (NCM).
