I don't visit Pornhub often, but I popped over there and was greeted with a big banner saying that in only a few days, the site will begin requiring a government id to access it as mandated by some new law or something. I don't fully understand, by what I interpret this to mean, is that you will have to reveal your identity and entrust them with some pretty crucial and personal information if you just want to see some tiddies. My question is, is this just a Pornhub thing, or is this going to be universal across all 18+ websites, including this one? If it's just Pornhub some other similar sites, no big deal, I barely go there since I generally prefer anime girls over 3D women, but if this is going to be a global pornsite lockdown, I'm wondering if I should go into full panic mode and spend every waking moment until the law goes into effect downloading as many lewd pictures, videos, and video game mods from my favorite sites as possible in order to have enough fap material to last me the rest of my life?


Or, if I completely misinterpreted that notification and this is just a big load of nothing and we'll all still be able to look at booba online without needing to surrender our personal info, then please let me know.

EDIT: Here's a screenshot of the banner: freeimage.host/i/notif.dig3QPS

This site might be able to get away with it since it isn't technically an "adult site." It's an imageboard with various amounts of content besides NSFW. Same thing with Social Media, and nobody's IDing people when they log on Twitter or Reddit.

I remember our government trying that idea around about what 2018 i think?

I didn't got the banner when i entered this site?
Amd you're new too.

As someone unfortunate enough to live in an impacted state (Idaho), some context.

The popular thing in red states now is to pass laws where a thing is declared illegal, and enforcement is handed over to the citizenry by empowering them to sue the providers of the thing to the tune of tens of thousands of dollars. This shields the state from legal scrutiny and sticky Constitutional issues, since they're not technically bringing forth criminal prosecution, the citizenry is with civil lawsuits.

In the case of Idaho, the law in question is HB 498 (2024).
legislature.idaho.gov/wp-...024/legislation/H0498.pdf

The TL;DR of the law is:
* Any website where at least one-third of the content is "actual, simulated, or animated displays" of pornographic acts (yep, this includes hentai) is a porn website.
* Any porn website, regardless of whether it's based in Idaho or even the United States, is required to verify the user's age by collecting (but not storing) government ID.
* Failure to do so entitles any Idaho resident to sue the website for not less than $10,000.
* Because this 30-year-old issue is somehow suddenly a moral panic, the law was declared an emergency and went into effect almost immediately without notice.

If you are thinking this is wildly overreaching for a state law and Unconstitutional, you are correct. The various states pushing these laws are in the process of being sued for this very reason. Unfortunately a minority of websites like PornHub folded, albeit with the malicious compliance of just blocking anyone from the impacted states and not collecting ID. This can easily be circumvented by using a free web proxy like ProtonVPN.

Anyhow, please don't humor my stupid state government. Najar's videos are one of my few remaining joys in life. If it comes down to it, just geoblock Idaho and I'll VPN around it.

Good. These foreign-owned billion dollar companies are making bank on selling addictive, destructive, and subversive porn to American youths. Make these criminals do the bare minimum to ensure that only adults have access to such garbage. Your porn world will BURN.



Major VPN providers will soon be required to list their owned IP addresses in to a public database of proxy IPs. When that happens, companies such as MindGeek will be required to block access to their wesbites from any of these listed VPN IPs.

Here's a list of states and links to the associated law[s].

The laws are cookie-cutter duplicates of a common template, so a fun way around it: for every piece of explicit content on the website, four random safe-for-work AI garbage images are generated (and tagged with ai_garbage for easy filtering). "33.3% porn? Nope, we have no more than 20%, guaranteed. Also we're in Sweden, fuck off."

Typical cuckservative, nanny state bullshit. Too smooth brained to figure out real issues, so they blame the porn and demand you dox yourself.

Considering what's going on, it makes this info extra funny: curiocity.com/us-popular-pornhub-searches-2023/

I never seen such thing since the Shekinah's glory.
