The "adapt" part is the competition. You have to adapt to competition. Or die. The infringements, on the other hand, is not fair competition and need to be adressed with harder methods.
Let governments, especially religious or anti-porn organizations, interfere with our competition is never a good idea. Governments should only ensure fair competition, nothing more. Comply or be shut down, is a good idea, but only illegal websites, like child abuse and repeated infringment.
Age verification through credit card will not work. Many adults do not have credit card, so should they be denied watching porn? I think that conflicts with freedom of speech. Anyone should have the freedom to express their sexuality visual, also for free.
I think the only way to protect children, is to label the website with a voluntary filter, and educate adults how to filter on their childrens computers. There are already laws that forbid you to trick children into porn sites, so that issue is not a problem.
