In other news, VPN subscription sales explode in Utah! easy sales opportunity
What’s weird is, from my reading of the law in question, a minor using either a VPN or a stolen ID card to access PornHub is a violation. . . for PornHub. That seems a little wonky to me.
It’s probably only a matter of time. The internet became the only place where age verification wasn’t really a thing. I’m honestly more surprised this didn’t happen 20 years ago.

This all seems a little disingenuous. First, from their summary, it doesn’t sound like the law actually requires checking a photo ID. They’re treating it like some maximalist regulation that it isn’t—it requires them to do more than nothing though. And also > PornHub said that a better solution is to identify users by their device. Pornhub effectively does absolutely nothing to verify users’ ages right now. Maybe it…
Earlier quoted context omitted.
I imagine this is something that has been studied extensively, what good/bad o outcomes are known from societies that do/don't allow porn?
I imagine it's hard to study since you need to find two countries with similar socio-economic status, rights of women, attitudes towards marriage, rape etc but that have opposite opinions on pornography.
It is ok to not have to differentiate them, since mostly you are after a correlation between the different underlaying attitudes.
The banning of porn is a symptom - it is a sign of the attitudes, and you can EASILY test against that.
