Well I guess it’s back to the garbage bag of porn mags in the woods for North Carolina and Montana kids.
Seriously tho, who is this law stopping? When I was a kid I would traverse the entire city if it meant there was a chance I’d see a boob.
If I had to start torrenting porn I would probably develop a serious habit from having to curate my own library. I would also gain full access to videos I normally wouldn’t bother with making everything even more involved.
The beauty of pornhub is you load it up, do some minor browsing, settle on something and forget all about it. Having to maintain a personal library would consume more of your time and you would develop even more intense prefrences.
Why is everyone acting like PornHub and the companies owned by the parent company are the only porn sites in existence? Literally just search for “porn sites” and you’re done, or if you’re looking for a specific model whose videos you found there just search for their name.
Pornhub is just the least skeevy but you’re right. I also understand it would be impossible to get every porn site in existence to follow US law. These are just all more reasons its a stupid idea.
I think it’s fine that they are making it a bit harder for kids. Overexposure to this can cause issues in mental health and the brain. So yeha, this won’t stop anybody for accessing porn if they really want it but it will prevent overexposure.
I mean I honestly think if they really wanted to “protect the children” they’d actually make COPPA enforcement a lot more strict (and also add in under 18 limitations), though I suspect that would be significantly harder.
There are a lot of places where you can get exposure to “bad” stuff as a child that are arguably more dangerous long term.
Are we talking about the internet? I honestly feel the internet is just too wild for children. I’d even create legislation for phones and computers to have mandatory internet security features for minors. I grew up looking at things like Rotten and Liveleaks with friends at school. Without noticing, watching people die in gory ways was my main internet activity at 15, and it was pretty hard to stop that habit. I wish I didn’t have access to that content at that age, I was pretty fucked up for a couple of years. I was totally desensitized and didn’t care when a family member died, didn’t feel a thing. I knew it was wrong, I just couldn’t feel anything.

Nah, curating is pretty easy! https://github.com/stashapp/stash
I didn’t say it was difficult
6.8k stars for what looks like the jellyfin of porn.

You bring up an interesting point. My theory is that this is no more than a hopeless election-year shenanigan.

Xvideos and Xhamster are pretty much the same as PornHub.
