The UK doesn't have much of a problem with children watching adults having sex.

The UK has more of a problem with children watching the weird unrealistic sex portrayed by the US porn industry.

I never thought about which countries are producing all the porn. I tried to find some numbers but it turns out to be quite hard. I still found some interesting numbers [1] although they do not really answer what I was looking for, which country is producing how many hours of porn every year.

This is an excellent observation to make.

This.

Now, why is the US unique here?

Also, in a thread about censorship: an accidental showing of a half-covered nipple on terrestrial broadcast TV would not result in a half million dollar fine and many many years of legal action. (I think the original fine was eventually overturned, but only because the FCC had changed a policy before taking action??)

US TV shows have to censor their language unless they're broadcast on cable or satellite.
