The whole porn ban thing is probably my all-time favorite example of conservatives voting against themselves.
Meanwhile, in California, I can watch all the porn I want without registering myself in a database and walk down the street to the weed store. And the women in my life still have rights over their own bodies.
So I guess Democrats are actually the party of freedom.
B- b- but, California b-b-bad! 🥺 Don’t you see how oppressed you are? You’re really oppressed out there. 🥺
California is bad for voting to keep prison slavery.
who would’ve guessed
It’s all relative. Lots of personal freedom, taxed like a mother fucker.
As it should be honestly but there are many people that don’t see it that way and view taxation as a form of oppression.
Yeah but could you imagine voting for them?
One of my fave porn vids got affected though.

And your gas costs $10 a gallon and your houses cost $5 million for a shit box. Hmmm… trade offs…
Notice how the the things you’re talking about are exaggerations and the comment above is not.
This comment was dumb but should NOT HAVE BEEN REMOVED.
Freedom ain’t free.
This is pretense to intrude on other things and more importantly remove the ability to browse pornography anonymously, which is dangerous. I would never use an account to browse a porn site because why would I ever want that data linked back to me? Look at the government right now. You watch a gay or trans porn video and in a few years that could be grounds for never being able to have certain types of jobs or worse, being deemed a “miscreant”
If this was truly about protecting children they would encourage open dialogue on sex in homes and increase inclusive sex education. This is evidence based. It would still be necessary even with this nonsense because obviously vpns exist, as well as amateur run sites, sites run from outside of the USA, torrents, etc that don’t give a shit about us laws requiring age verification and will show all kinds of obscenely hardcore videos
KOSA would require age verification for these sites and social networking. Nationally.
Luckily the bill appears to be dead
Me: This is America.
Pornhub: This content is not available in your state due to ID verification legislation.
My VPN: This is Germany.
My favorite small example of this is trying to watch a video on YouTube. If my VPN is set to United States then im told ‘You can’t watch this unless you log in.’
I switch to Germany and like magic the video plays. So clearly they didn’t need to confirm I wasn’t a bot. They just wanted to track my viewing habits.
What ?
you need to login to watch youtube in US ?
Didn’t knew that
Eh, no need for crazy latency, just get one in Colorado or something nearby.
Soon they’ll start recording you jerking it to cross reference with previous sessions as identity confirmation.
Well, they know what parts of what videos you watch, your favorite keywords, time/days patterns, location, I’d say they can train AI on that data
ChatGPT will be drawing conclusions from the data like “Subject is likely a tipthumbing twister (86.436% confidence) with content dependent high frequency intervals (94.738% confidence)”
It’ll analyze things like minor mouse movements, microphone audio, and use that wifi radar trick.
Can you imagine, training rec algos for porn sites on intensity of movement and facial expressions…
I would skip to when they start telling you about the side effects. So hot.

That’s what you voted for. You want republican rule taking away your freedoms. Well now you Floridains have what you wanted and voted for. Don’t be mad you made your bed and dont like the sheets.
You know damn well not all Floridians voted for this shit. This is the same kind of out-group bullshit red hat shit bags do. You’re just being intentionally divisive.
I’m sorry but here is a prime example of the Republican party doing dishonest election tactics in Florida and the public masses falling for it. If you don’t have enough common sense and fall for such tactics, who is to blame then? tampabay.com/…/the-name-is-the-same-but-theyre-di…
Majority of voters did, and keep on doing it.
Given how close most elections are and the low turnout, I would say at least 40% of voters and 50% of the population didn’t vote for this without even having to look at the election results.
In fact, 77% of the USA population did not vote for this.
By US standards it was a pretty high turnout.
However, more people didn’t vote than voted for Trump.
Not voting is the same as voting for whichever party wins.

I am really curious how long it will take them to ban VPNs.
It’s impossible to ban all VPNs. And even if they somehow do it, you can get a VPS(virtual private server) from one of the cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure etc.) and host your own vpn service (OpenVPN, Algo, Vultr). You don’t need to know a lot about it, there are step-by-step guides for it.
They’ll ultimately just have to cut off the US Internet from the rest of the world, right? As long as we can access other countries with more freedom, we can enjoy that level of freedom on the Internet. Or am I not understanding how the Internet works (entirely possible)?
Some US states already have more restrictive abortion laws than Saudi Arabia, so why not Internet laws too.
Every YouTuber sponsored by nordvpn: 🤑🤑🤑
“Verification is carried out by 3rd party”. Totally no potential to misuse of collected data.
Why no, they specifically mentioned it being highly secure
“Trust us, bro.”
See the lock icon near the URL? It says you’re secure so don’t worry bro.
Well at least it’s not going to the federal government so it should be somewhat safe
The third party has a very secure agreement to very securely sell data to 572 advertising partners and that is very securely being bought by the FBI.
Not that outlandish, since the FBI and the US police already buys advertising data streams to get access to data they are prohibited to collect directly.
It’s so bad there are already middlemen who buy data and compile it into products for law enforcement.
If it was last administration I’d say it’s just slightly annoying that our day was going to the federal government. But it’s admin…maybe not
I don’t care if kids see porn.
If that’s the worst thing ever, justifying this invasion of privacy, whoop de shit. Let 'em.
There’s a lot worse on the internet. There’s a lot worse on daytime television. Blood and guts and cults and informercials. Desirable crude entertainment is obviously not worth locking down the internet. I mean for fuck’s sake, at least with “four horsemen” excuses, like terrorism and money laundering, people agree that those things are bad.
It’s absolutely reprehensible that you think it’s okay for a child to see an infomercial
The thing is that by now, plenty of adults grew up watching porn when they were minors, and know that this hasn’t been harmful to them… so why are we even still getting laws like that, shouldn’t voters and their representatives know better by now…
These people are not results-oriented.
It’s old white fossils trying to stay in power by getting crazy christians to vote for them.
What about addiction? It’s not 100% but very possible
I was never exposed to porn on the internet as a child, outside of advertisements and typing website names wrong. I never looked for it either, if a child is actively seeking it out, its up to a parent to deal with it. People should stop making laws to protect bad parents.
its up to a parent to deal with it
What a nice cherry on top of the hypocrisy pie. The party of “personal responsibility” and “small government” is perfectly happy when government is used to regulate sexuality and help out the irresponsible parents that don’t want to learn how to monitor their children’s Internet usage. Now young teens are going to learn how to use VPNs or just find the shadier sites that don’t give a shit about U.S. state laws.
Both of which would be adequately addressed by parents learning how to use the tools that are probably already built into their router.
Yes, you’re right. But that doesn’t fit with their “think of the children” moral compass. Which isn’t even pointing the correct direction, but good luck convincing them of that.
I feel like my compass analogy isn’t the best, but eh.
A valid response to “think of the children” is “fuck them kids.”
It’s not enough to politely disagree. Some fucks need to be dismissed.
Let me child see porn or trust a porn site with their photo and IS?
At least they owned the liberals, right?
It must be real inconvenient to have to turn on a VPN, it’s like a whole button that they have to click, Libs totally owned. Meanwhile the actual weird idiots that voted for this can barely operate a mouse and so they actually do have to suffer the consequences of their own decisions.
Guilty Canadian Admission:
In my teens I lived in Brockville Ontario near Ogdensburg New York and watched a lot of US channels. The Star Spangled Banner came on at the beginning of the broadcast day for some channels.
For many years, I thought the first line was “Jose can you see”
Florida 🤝 UK
Ridiculous and archaic anti-porn laws
Make sure you cum on your ID first as tribute.
People with humiliation fetishes are gonna love this shit.
Time for fediverse pron
Fortunately, this is easy to work around, just get a VPN hosted in a didn’t different state or country.
We have something similar here in Utah, so I have a WiFi network that is always connected to a VPN in a neighboring state. If something isn’t accessible, I just swap WiFi networks and I’m good.
About time to invest in a VPN
You are free to be as conservative as you want. What more can you ask for?
This will never be removed. There will only ever going to be more types of websites that have to use this
Freedom
“Show penis for verification”
Soon You’ll have to go back to borrowing porn magz from Your friends.
Will porn be the straw that broke the mountain’s back?
May he enjoy the sweet freedom of USA!
Whenever someone says, “who cares, proton VPN is free,” I get a bit sadder. If Proton ever drops the free tier, honestly? I’ll understand. Because God knows, seeing people who can’t be fucked to give a damn about open access to information using costly infrastructure to watch their shitty porn, I might’ve just cut it already.
That’s insane
I wonder how many of the verification photos are shirtless.
This is a great opportunity to learn how to use a VPN! I’m in a blue state so haven’t needed one yet, but the time is definitely coming.
Time to return to wanking off to magazines
And ANON doesn’t understand how to use a VPN?

Trump branded chastity cages.
What I hate most is that that would be an effective tactic for right wing extremist groups. Keeping men sexually frustrated and insecure in their masculinity is a powerful tool for them.
Actually come to think of it, I really wouldn’t be surprised if there were a variety of political themed pro dommes these days. It seems like it would be lucrative
