In the US, Montana and North Carolina have been leading the list of states with the highest number of searches for "VPN" over the past few days. That's most likely because their new age verification laws have gone into effect on January 1, and adult websites are now either requiring a copy of visitors' government IDs or have blocked access in the regions altogether. As 404Media reports, Pornhub has chosen to block people in both states from accessing its website instead of asking for verification. The other websites owned by its parent company Aylo (formerly MindGeek), including Brazzers, Redtube and YouPorn, are also no longer accessible.
If anybody in Montana and North Carolina tries to access an Aylo website, they'll see a video message from performer Cherie DeVille, explaining that giving a copy of their ID to adult platforms puts their children and their privacy at risk. "We believe that the best and most effective solution for protecting children and adults alike is to identify users by their device and allow access to age-restricted materials and websites based on that identification," DeVille added.

No kidding. See post 36 for one example.
Some men (stunted growth men) want their internet porn and don’t care if access to children is allowed.
Look. Not everything is Free Speech Censorship.
Problem is the right won but doesn’t know how to prevail. Go over to Twitter and do a deep dive of the human misery that produces that stuff; purple haired, body painted, piercings presented, tattooed waifs with unbalanced boobs. These are sick people who have very little attractiveness.
You can ban those websites and access to it and people will go back to drawing pictures, but you need to know what you are opposing, and they have already moved on to deep fakes, Only Fans, and AI, not these old mousy websites.
Want to oppose something, why not go against the feminists and the damage they have done to the fun and give and take of gender relations?
Nobody with a brain advocates for anything with children. That’s the same simpleminded drivel the liberals’ do, portraying an opposing viewpoint they disagree with as extreme. I don’t even believe in using the word ‘teen” like the porner’s do should be legal when associated with the stuff.
Most VPN services offer a scaled-down free version, to entice users to subscribe to the full version.
I can oppose modern feminism and porn at the same time. I oppose lots of things.
Nothing you forbid is ever completely gone. I want shoplifting prosecuted. I am aware that even with good strong laws and enforcement there will always be shoplifters. But fewer.
That’s all any law can do. I don’t say “Well, a law won’t completely stop kidnapping. So just make it legal.” That’s nonsensical.
You seem know a lot about porn surfing incognito and circumventing state laws regarding the distribution of porn to minors.... you are an expert in avoiding the negative social stigma of a porn user... Good for you.
Yep. They can dish it out but can’t take it.
But trolls love attention no matter how you give it.
No. I just know networking basics.
Sadly.
They always are.
I sometimes wonder if they read back over their own BS that they type to realize the hypocrisy in their own words..
Murder, and child prostitution, were never legal in the first place, so you have a failed argument. My point is that by making it “more difficult” as you say, would cause more harm to society than letting them be in their own home. By eliminating the online viewing, there will be a spike in prostitution, including child prostitution, because the evil in society will see an opportunity to help them scratch the itch.
Let’s look at this from a different lens that maybe you, or at least a majority of Freepers, could relate to. What if the libs came out and said they were implementing a ban on any weapon that had a magazine, of ANY size. Thier argument would be “anywhere we can make it more difficult for school shooters the better”. We both know what would happen, beyond the outrage ... First, people would stock up on guns with magazines before the ban went into effect, many thinking they could profit handsomely once the ban was in place. Then, there would become a massive black market for guns with magazines. Nobody would admit to having one, but in short order, everyone would know someone who knew someone that could get you what you needed. And the desire to fulfill that need would become greater than it was before the ban ... that is the way people are wired ... just look at the toilet paper shortages in early COVID.
Or maybe the analogy would be a parent telling a daughter she cant date a specific loser. Yeah, you will make it harder for her to see him, until the day she comes home and announces he is her baby daddy.
The net effect is that your “just making it more difficult” proposition actually turns passive participants into obsessed zealots, and you create markets that will be significantly harder to close down in the future.
This is good. Why all states don’t do it is obvious. I’m just surprised pornhub couldn’t find anyone to pay off in those states.
Go back to sleep or back to youe pornhub fool. You don’t even understand the difference between a natural right and pornography...and child molestation and slavery.
A law should not be prevented from being implemented because the bad guys may switch their activities...I just don’t believe you have the wherewithal to think this through. You probably are basically reciting someone else’s rhetoric without analyzing too deep.
So ... you were cool with prohibition, and how it lead to the rise of the mafia in the US? ... cause all that matters is good intentions. You are a complete idiot. You are exactly what the left is ... governing by good intentions, damned the consequences. Go back to DU dipwad.
If you think that’s funny and rape and sexual exploitation is funny, you’re sick. I feel sorry for you kids having a creep for a father.
Oh please. That was ages ago. Keep old you old fart.
So, you’re doubling down on being creepy. Seek professional help.

Pedophile alert...bastard arguing that it’s good to market child paragraphs on the internet...and incredibly stupid argument at that...
