From 404 Media:

SB 3003, introduced by Senator Angela Paxton (wife of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton), would criminally charge online retailers for selling “an obscene device” without verifying the buyers’ age.

Sellers would have to require customers to submit their government-issued photographic identification, or use “third-party age verification services that use public records or other reliable sources to verify the purchaser’s identity and age,” the bill says.

Owning a credit card, which already requires the holder to be over 18 years of age, would not be enough.

Like the regressive and ineffective adult site age verification laws passing all across the country in the last few years, this law would drag Texans back to a not-so-distant time when sex toy sellers had to pretend vibrators were for “massage.”

Obscene devices in Texas are defined as “a device including a dildo or artificial vagina, designed or marketed as useful primarily for the stimulation of human genital organs.” Texas still has a state law on the books that makes it a crime to own six or more “obscene devices.” Read more here.

Have a read of this…
