It's interesting to see PornHub in there, but not the other Aylo (former MindGeek) properties (YouPorn, RedTube...).

I wonder if they could in theory bypass the DSA by just breaking PH into smaller services and hope for a split user base.

That's what I'm thinking, if they're considered separate legal entities then these laws are easily avoided. Like a lot of other laws having to do with company size, profits, taxes, etc.

Once they add an age-verification gate, it will surely push their MAU down below the DSA threshold. Does the regulations then still apply?

If the numbers don't go over the threshold for a year the regulation no longer applies.
