I actually wound up geoblocking the UK based on Ofcom's February 2025 presentation for small services providers--they said that they intended to target "one-man bands" who (e.g.) failed to perform a child risk assessment or age verification, but that a geoblock would be considered compliant. I don't like doing this, but as someone who visits the UK regularly (and has been regularly pushing Ofcom on this matter) I figure better safe than sorry.
