They should cut off Washington D.C. if they want to see some action.

We didn't vote for that shit over in DC, this is some nonsense they're doing in the states. DC doesn't even get a vote in the Congress or Senate, why punish the 700,000 people here not involved in politics?

Like "my elected officials cut the whole state off from porn" is entirely something voters IN THOSE STATES need to work out for themselves lmao

Sadly pornhub is the only way many get some form of sex education outside of don't have sex

I'm not sure if it is still a thing or if it ever was but pornhub also offers sex education content as well

Sadly porn was where I got my sex education. My country is painfully conservative and parents do not discuss sex with children

This is unfortunately exactly what the people who made those laws want.

Idk the whole story but this would mean that there is a portion of people that can legally have sex but cant view porn??? Pretty idiotic. Also all kinds of age checking on websites is a bad thing. If someones so concerned there are a lot of ways to block websites.
