Pornhub ban now covers more than a third of US states - Clover - Jan 2 2025
The Independent, January 2 2025.

Quote:More than a third of US states have now introduced restrictions for online adult content, blocking access to popular pornographic websites such as Pornhub.
From 1 January, 2025, there are 17 states with restrictions in place after Florida, South Carolina and Tennessee became the latest to enforce over-18 age verification laws for viewing porn sites.
Legislation aimed at banning under-18s from viewing adult content in these states – which have a combined population of more than 120 million – typically requires visitors to provide state-approved identification, such as a passport or driving license.
[Conservative puritanical] dinosaurs in Congress finally are catching up to the rampant Wild West that is the Internet when it comes to easy access to pornography and are enacting sensible age verification laws for depraved men who want to watch women get raped on camera. Coomers in shambles.
Discussion on Ovarit.

I don't know why "Coomers in shambles" took me out so hard, but I am laughing!
What do you call porn age-restriction laws in a third of the U.S.? A good start.

Yeah, no objection to this. You have to provide ID to buy cigarettes, alcohol, etc; this should be treated in the same way (not that women are products to be bought and sold, but accessing things for adults should require age verification).
