What's going on with Pornhub

What is going on with Pornhub. I can’t get into their website now. I get this politics message and then a sign in link. But I didn’t ever have an account, and there is no way I can get to any link to sign up, due to this message that pops up and blocks my entrance.

I read the whole message. No more Pornhub for me.

you can use VPN to a different state, it a hassle sometime but there is work around, the state I am in it the same i has to use VPN when i want to use pornhub

Vote against the idiots in your state that passed that law, then use a VPN to prevent any site from blocking you based on location.

I have seen a report on that, a lot of Countries want to limit the access to porn material and looking for a way to limit it via ID checks, acccess points, geo locking and so on.

All in the name of protecting young age minors.
But since every country hase their own regulations and some just dont care or even live from this economy, they will not find a solution which works everywere.

I bet I can solve this for you that doesnt involve using a VPN. Its not blocked in my state though. So itd be helpful if you could relay to me what that exact URL is youre seeing in the screenshot

i know it just says .com but in the dev tools, im assuming there is some kind of alternate

I would have no Idea how to do all that. but here is the url:

https://www.pornhub.com

The block is from Pornhub, not the politicians. Pornhub just got tired of their shenanigans and said, anyone from Alabama can’t come to our site.

How do you do that?

ahh yeah, I would just need to like be able to block myself so I can figure out how to bypass it. You would have to right click on the website where you see the block page then go to inspect element. Then within the code there, it should be in that. But its a bit complex if you dont know what youre looking at.

If you really wanted to bother i can walk you through it more but its up to you, I just like trying to bypass stuff like this. Its a fun puzzle.

give tor browser a try if you can’t get your own vpn. it is free, if a bit slow.

Educate yourselves on what the agenda for Project 2025 is. I don’t usually delve into politics on forums like this, but what is being planned is nothing short of a theocratic autocracy.

" In a fiery introduction by Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts, Project 2025 also calls for banning porn:

Pornography should be outlawed. The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned. Educators and public librarians who purvey it should be classed as registered sex offenders. And telecommunications and technology firms that facilitate its spread should be shuttered.

The development of social media(like TikTok, Instagram, Twitter) has made it easier and faster for everyone to access porn at a younger age.

If they block Pornhub, we will find another way :skull::eyes:

This is not discussed enough - there are too many who chime in to say it’s fear mongering or not real. There are certain times in which “no politics talk” is the kind of thing which allows these heinous actions to take hold, and sometimes, we must have it discussed.

It is real. I’m old enough to remember Reagan years and what the “moral majority” wanted to do - the people who put this stuff together are in it for the long haul, it is their life’s work (and their parents and grandparents’ life work, see the John Birch Society history) to create their idea of a perfect xtian society. “It won’t happen here” is to be ignorant of history.

Vote. Vote for freedom, vote for the rights of women, for the rights of our friends in the LGBTQ community, vote for protecting our data, and vote for the right to address grievances.

You might think both sides are the same - I’ve lived through enough of both to know this is garbage. They are not. Instead of quibbling over finer details - the difference is literally down to one issue - conservatives who wrote and want to implement project 2025? You cannot reason with them. They are not interested in your issues. They want nothing to do with you. They only want to rule.. Whereas the center or left? You can actually reason, they will listen to rational positions, they can be persuaded through discourse. They are not perfect, they screw things up, there are policies we don’t always agree with. But we get them to listen through communication and persuasion.

Please, take it from an old, queer dude. We cannot allow conservatives to further entrench their power, we are literally at a turning point in the US (and will have effects elsewhere in the world, the AfP in Germany is on the rise, for ex).

Instead of looking for all the points you disagree in order to find flaws and find reasons not to support, please, PLEASE drop the nihilism and cynicism for 10 minutes and look at what you DO agree with.

And if you have a “so what” approach to what P2025 is about - this site and most of the porn you consume will vanish if these people come to power. Not a joke. Not hyperbole. The epicenter of the adult entertainment business is still in the US and it will be dismantled under the leadership of the conservatives. These people play a long game, and have been wanting to outlaw adult entertainment since the advent of photography and showing women’s ankles.

no. Just no. Stop with the fear mongering and letting politics infect every aspect of life. It’s especially egregious in non political sites because it is usually the people on the furthest ends of the political spectrum that push these politics into these places it’s not wanted. It’s so ingrained in them that they just can’t help it. A perfect example is your including of project2025. It is not supported, condoned, or created by any presidential candidate. It is a private group that created ideas they think is good, and you can find these groups pushing similar ideas on all sides.

This is a forum for porn and masturbation. People partaking in that are usually trying to get away from all the BS. And every time theyu’re pulled out of that frame, they grow more and more resentful towards those that did it. But now they have to be careful, because the person that did it is “an old, queer dude” so now their suddenly bigots and committing hate crimes for disagreeing.

So imo, take that shit back to reddit and x where it belongs. Or you can keep going here and risk pushing more people away than you gain.
