This sort of enforcement is basically impossible on the internet. If anybody can access any website from anywhere, how is the website supposed to keep up with hundreds or thousands of changing jurisdictions each with their own legal requirements? And why should they have to?

Oh, I wouldn't be so hopeful. Given how more and more countries are implementing the same Orwellian laws, it'll definitely be easy-peasy for governments to enforce this thing everywhere on Earth. It'll soon be 1984 everywhere, everywhere between Arctic and Antarctica. And it'll not be something restricted to adult entertainment.
