4chan and Kiwi Farms sue the UK over its age verification law

4chan and Kiwi Farms have filed a lawsuit in U.S. federal court against the UK's Ofcom over its age verification law. They argue that penalties from Ofcom threaten their speech rights under U.S. law. Both sites claim they operate solely in the U.S. and are not subject to UK regulations.

This lawsuit follows a promise made on August 23 and emphasizes the challenges of enforcing age verification laws and accessing specific websites. As they navigate these legal issues, the entities seek to protect their operations and free speech rights.
