Attorney Corey Silverstein Outlines ‘Serious Civil Liberties Concerns’ Raised by HB 295

Be aware of civil liberties concerns raised by House Bill (HB) 295. Cyberspace (November 8, 2023) - Adult industry attorney Corey D.

In its current form, HB 295 states that companies and webmasters who don’t implement “reasonable” age verification methods could be subject to criminal charges – a third-degree felony. No other proposed and/or implemented age verification regulation in the US has such punitive criminal penalties. “HB 295 is another example of a dangerous trend where politicians are seemingly ignoring commonsense – and the Constitution – at the same time,” Silverstein said. Silverstein explained to clevescene that additional language in HB 295 creates a misdemeanor for anyone circumventing the age block from the side of the user (eg via VPN). According to Silverstein, this aspect of HB 295 will…
