That byline is the real gift
Starting January 1, Floridians can no longer legally come to Pornhub.
The longer the better
but not too long
The dumbest thing about these laws is that all they accomplish is sabotaging American porn companies. Foreign companies have no reason to follow these laws and there's no way to stop people from going to them instead.
Pornhub is Canadian
They have a footprint and servers in the US, which makes them subject to US law. If they shut that down, they could ignore this law, which is frankly more likely than them complying.
Isn't the intention to sabotage US porn companies?
But will they pull out in time?
I think they're struggling to stay hard, honeslty. Too many drinks and wondering wtf they're doing in Florida, anyway.
Time to finish her off out of common decency, pull out, and just leave.
yeah I pulled out of Florida too
#MeToo
Never stick your dick in crazy
Never stick your dick in another, much larger dick
That made me think of the !vore@lemmy.ml community.
This makes me wonder why this community is there
OH realized and pulls out.
It's surprising that there's anything left in Florida at this rate.
Better get an std check after. Florida’s crazy.
These laws are next to impossible to repeal once in place. To my knowledge no state that has implemented age verification laws have repealed the law or has the law overturned on judicial review.
That's what the dumb ass voters in the state voted for. That's what they get.
Someone is going to make a mint when they create a VPN that gramps can figure out how to use.
Sadly it's going to be some nefarious VPN that results in gramps getting their bank accounts drained.
Having lived within 100 miles of The Villages, I'm kind of OK with that.
Buy VPN stonks.
Possibly hard drive stocks too. If somehow, some way VPNs are banned in these states, you still might be able to ship an encrypted hard drive full of porn to someone.
This might be a long game to reinvigorate flash and optical media sales.
VPNs and other traffic redirection are so widely used in business that I don’t know how they could do that on a state by state basis.
For example, how is a sysadmin supposed to manage cloud machines without SSH, which can easily be used to circumvent content restrictions.
Vpns are used for business too they won't be banned
Yeah I don't know that it's even possible to block VPNs from a technical perspective.

Boy, I can't wait for Poilievre to follow suit like the fucking moron he is.
I’m not in favour of that law, but I could abide it if the age verification is done in a reasonable and secure way. Even the secure ways don’t protect against a kid borrowing an unrestricted device.
I have no faith that will happen though. More likely what will happen is you’ll have to send your id to the porn websites and they’ll send it to a third party company with nebulous privacy requirements and your porn browsing history will be available to anyone with money.
I've got no interest in having to verify my identity to watch porn online... Fuck that.
Same here. Npbody should have to submit their identity for that.
An alternative would be a device local authentication system that validates your age from your browser in a privacy preserving way. I’d much prefer that method if we had to go down that route.
Fantastic headline, Gizmodo!
If you don't slip it in to Florida then you don't need to worry about pulling out.
