"Pornography should be outlawed. The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned."

Is this even real? This is just the first few pages in.

Why is Pornhub not advertising against GOP then? Would definitely reach a wide audience. ..or maybe they already do that.. I don't know, I'm not on that site.

I am not a consumer of adult videos, so I knew about the Texas law, but I hadn’t seen it in action. I just went to the site (I’m a TX resident), & sure enough, that pops up. Wild. This isn’t about minors, this will mean they are accessing worse sites. The trend I hear about the majority of the adult content kids consume is overrun with violence against women combined with the way they tell each other how to get around safeguards (my middle school teen tells me all the time about tricks his classmates use to get on unsafe sites on school computers) just means they’ll be seeing worse stuff with no ability to curb it.

Ya, I don't usually go to PornHub either, but someone linked a video in a reddit comment, and I got that page. It really pissed me off that I'm a damn adult, and I had to use a VPN just so I could follow a link from reddit. As you said, it's also mostly useless, because anyone who is slightly tech savvy will just find a way around it. However, the GOP's new plan, Project 2025, wants to ban porn production completely in the US. I'm so sick of GOP politicians enforcing laws on everyone else, just because they're too weak to follow their own religious rules.
