Latest edition of ETO is out now!

No one wants to wish away the rest of the year, but if you don’t plan in advance, you can’t make the most of upcoming retail opportunities!

In this issue we’ve been looking at and , discussing everything from pumpkin spice l**e to butt plug stocking fillers. Imogen has also loved talking to store-owners about visual merchandising around these late-in-the-year festivals.(basically, don’t cobweb the whole shop).

Features editor Paul Smith has been hard at work discovering the stories behind some of the industry’s specialist brands, profiling and The Handy, while I’ve been chatting to a couple of other key names: female-focused sexual wellness company Bijoux Indiscrets, and electrostim pioneer E-Stim Systems.

And our social media columnist Maria Prendeville has taken it back to the old school, discussing why email marketing is still a hugely important way of creating personalised connections with customers.

Finally, EroFame is taking place in Amsterdam at the beginning of October. ETO publisher Jason Dante and editior Imogen Lees will be there – if you’re attending the expo, they'd love to say hello.

Age Verification Laws Are Coming, But At What Cost?

On 25th July, the UK will enforce new online age verification laws for adult content, but Reddit jumped early, blocking NSFW content from 14th July and requiring users to scan their passport or submit facial recognition just to view adult material.

The backlash has already begun.

With my conspiracy hat on (though I’m usually just early, not wrong), I can't help but ask:
Is this really about protecting children, or controlling adults?

The days of simple credit card age checks are gone. Now, you're being asked to tie your biometric data and personal ID to your private sexual habits. Who really wants their face linked to their P0rnhub search history?

Beyond privacy, this could have broader societal consequences:

✅ Countries with legalised s*x work often report fewer sexual assaults
❌ Countries with tight sexual censorship (like India) report more
🤯 People need healthy outlets, not more digital gatekeepers judging what’s "appropriate"

This isn’t just a p**n issue, it’s about freedom, privacy, mental health, and the right to unwind without surveillance.

Retailers, take note: I predict an upsurge in old-school DVD sales and "offline" content consumption. A strange full-circle moment for the adult retail industry.

As the leading source of adult industry trade news in Europe, ETO Magazine will be closely following the real-world impact of these restrictions, not just on content platforms, but on the entire pleasure products and adult lifestyle ecosystem. The wider media may wake up to the fallout later, but we’ll be covering it as it unfolds. If you want to understand what’s really happening behind the headlines, keep your eye on ETO.

This is a bigger story than most realise.

What do you think?

Are we protecting kids or infantilising adults?
