As of this week, half of the states in the U.S. are under restrictive age verification laws that require adults to hand over their biometric and personal identification to access legal porn.
Missouri became the 25th state to enact its own age verification law on Sunday. As it’s done in multiple other states, Pornhub and its network of sister sites—some of the largest adult content platforms in the world—pulled service in Missouri, replacing their homepages with a video of performer Cherie DeVille speaking about the privacy risks and chilling effects of age verification.

Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
Watch them retreat once Grindr states that due to increasing safeguards and transparency, all of their files will be released to the public.
About eight years ago, I moved out of the US to a Third World country but each day it feels less and less like a Third World country.
But gun control is too hard. smh
Good thing I know how to use VPNs
Freedom! Fuck yeah!
People will just start making their own porn in their bathtubs
Pornhub
sister sites
Guys, I’ve cracked it.
half of states does not equal half of americans
It is 49% of the population. I did the math: https://lemmy.ca/post/56198025/20385158
Texas has a lot of people
No it doesn’t. Mullvad costs less than 6 dollars per month: https://mullvad.net/en/pricing

*half of the us requires you to “visit” iceland to watch porn
Still allowed for now. 6 months tops?
Right right, block the VPNs and destroy corporate infrastructure and WfH, and then everyone will just use more torrent clients or stream from international servers. It’s all good, my friend.
They could just make VPN only illegal for peasants.
Then we’re back to FTP sites and fServes.
Then I start renting private vpses out as vpns to coomers.
In other news VPN use in the US is soaring to new heights.
MMMERICAAAAAAAA!!! 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉
The death of freedoms by the day.
They can applaud because they have both hands free
what’s sound of one hand fapping?
errr… I mean clapping
those aren’t claps you’re hearing. might just be the half that can still watch porn…
I wouldn’t care if 1% of the population watched it. The truth is that enough of the population watches it that it is a useful tool to track and dox the population. People in power don’t care who you fuck or don’t fuck, they care how they can use who you fuck against you.
plus republicans are probably one of the largest audience for porn
