Half of Britons viewed adult websites last year, regulator says

LONDON: Around half of British adults visited a pornographic website or app in 2020, a year in which the COVID pandemic caused more activity of every kind to shift online, media regulator Ofcom said on Wednesday.

About 26 million Britons visited an adult website or app in September 2020, with the largest, Pornhub, attracting around a third of online adults, representing half of all British men and 16% of British women, Ofcom said in its annual survey of the nation’s online habits.
