In the United States, the production and distribution of pornography is regulated at both the federal and state level. Productions have to comply with child welfare, obscenity, and intellectual property laws. On a federal level there are multiple statutes such as the Communications Decency Act which prohibits transmissions of ‘obscene’ materials through public telecommunication systems. Generally most states also require a permit or license for any business that produces or distributes pornography and some have more restrictive regulations regarding where it can be displayed or shown such as in adult entertainment venues. To make sure your business is compliant with these laws it is important to consult both local experts in legal compliance relevant to your area as well research what types of regulations could affect how you conduct business online before launching any materials related to production and distribution of pornographic content.
