An Indiana law that requires porn websites to verify users' ages is being challenged by an association of the adult entertainment industry in federal court.

An Indiana law that requires pornographic websites to verify users' ages — one of numerous such statutes in effect across the country — is being challenged by an association of the adult entertainment industry. In April, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected a request by the same group, the Free Speech Coalition, to block a similar law in Texas.According to the Indiana law signed by Republican Gov.

Backers of such laws say they protect children from widespread pornography online, while opponents say the laws are vague and raise privacy concerns. In the complaint filed Monday, the association says the Indiana law is unenforceable and unconstitutional. The group is asking a federal judge in Indianapolis to issue a preliminary injunction against the law before it takes effect on July 1 and to block the law permanently.
