To put this type of block in perpsective
If a site doesnt comply its only going to be blocked at the UK ISP level
Thats a world away from true adult verification like the old cyberage etc which required a credit card and couldnt be bypassed.
I wouldnt think there would be too many sites on Uk servers
Most adult sites / businesses with any sense moved to Europe eons ago
Sites with servers based outside the Uk arent likely to comply so get used to using a proxy
or vpn or other to bypass the block
The new regulator will tell internet service providers to block sites that do not take steps to prevent under-18s accessing pornography.

Anyone can bypass that block with a proxy - only downside in my experience is download managers dont seem to work with proxys

Not a good plan.

but in the main the one rule that rings true is
Dont use torrents and the likeyhood of ending up in court is next to 0 because of the likelyhood
we wont be able to pay the type of money their looking to make.
So they target the sharing platforms/hosts mostly
