    Nah, those are individual states.

    EDIT: To clarify: the bounds on legal jurisdiction aren’t tied to policy on pornography or anything like that. They just state that there are machines that the UK can’t make legal rules for. The UK could try blocking traffic to them on the UK’s side, but the US won’t enforce rules against them.

    For that to not be a loophole regarding the UK, the US would have to have identical policy on age verification for social media in all of the US. But in the US, age verification law on social media is something that is set at a state level.
