So legally, they are just covering their asses. If something ever went down, and they got pulled in, they could show proof they tried. They don't have to prove the age, but they would have to prove they attempted to filter it out.

... and when Visa starts telling them to check, Epoch won't be years behind.
That's BS. They don't need to cover their ass any more than hosting companies do.

If Visa wants to crack the whip and everyone has to show every ID for every site, and laws are changed, then I will live by that. But in the meantime while Epoch plays cowboy, they can do it with someone else. They can follow the 2257 rules just like everyone else has to.
