GiraffeInc

She pops up explaining that states have added new harsher age verification for porn sites when you visit porn hub. Porn hub and some other adult sites stopped letting people onto them because its almost impossible to age verify someone on the internet


HyrinShratu

I'm in Utah, and a person has to upload a copy of their driver's license under the new age verification rules. I don't know what the rule is in other states. In response, the hub shut down operation here. This has led to a rather huge upswing in VPN usage here.

Crazy coincidence the amount of politicians supporting this that had a stake in vpn companies

It’s a meth pipe though fyi.


huitzilopochtla

Asking in all sincerity: What’s the difference?


NeoMaxiZoomDweebean

This is a meth pipe. Crack you smoke with a direct flame or a torch. Crack pipes are straight and they use a little piece of chore boy in the end as a filter. Meth you use indirect heat and you swirl the pipe around. The meth turns into an oil and you lightly hit the bottom of the pipe with a flame.


Girderland

None. Both crack and meth can be smoked with it, along many other "pure" drugs that evaporate when heated. Like DMT for example.


Toothless-In-Wapping

Meth pipe has the bulb, because you want to heat up and not burn the meth. Crack pipe is a tube with a filter (usually steel wool) because you need to burn crack. I asked the same question once.

PsychoticSane

While not on this particular issue, Florida's lawmaker who had millions in stocks for drug testing companies passed a law (that was later deemed unconstitutional) that required welfare recipients to be drug tested. This law did not save the state any money, it actually costed them as the testing was more expensive than the money they didn't give to a few recipients. He transfered his stocks to his wife to try and hide the obvious conflict of interest. So while it may or may not have happened here, it absolutely does happen Here's a bit of a long read for a source on my example: https://www.forbes.com/sites/judystone/2015/02/17/the-sham-of-drug-testing-walker-scott-and-political-pandering/


Stolt-Jensenberg

I mean yeah, people should absolutely call it out when it does happen. But that doesn’t mean it’s okay for people to just make shit up and spread disinformation.


PsychoticSane

I would argue that you should interpret comments like these as satire/sarcasm until a source is provided


Minimum_Attitude6707

I took what he said as a joke, because it does happen. The internet is weird and so subjective, because we make tone up in our head.


PosisDas

It is really REALLY damaging to society. The whole "vaccines cause autism" thing happened because a guy published a BS paper saying there was a link between the MMR vaccine and autism and then he was going to say that HIS version of the MMR vaccine doesn't cause autism so he could make lots of money. So kids are dying from preventable diseases because some asshole wanted to make lots of money.


North_Drummer6359

Trust me bro


Outrageous_Zebra_221

Actually the money is coming from the people running the verification services. It's actually being done fairly out in the open, basically it's traffic cameras all over again. They paid to get their cameras up there. They did nothing to improve road safety and did everything to generate a bunch of money for the people placing the cameras.

firechaox

How is that faring with people? In terms of- is this sort of thing getting on people’s nerves enough to have an electoral impact? I feel like at the local level these things matter, like I remember in my home country in São Paulo, people were irate when the mayor reduced the speed limit rules at night to reduce traffic deaths a few years back. The way people spoke, it was one the main grievances and he may have lost the election on that issue alone.


Liobuster

If people falling into poverty hasnt had one I dont see how this will Especially considering how little impact the average voter seems to have nowadays


TortelliniTheGoblin

They've found ways to make us willing to hurt ourselves in order to 'win'. "As long as [insert other political party here] doesn't win!"


firechaox

At local level you have so much more impact though, and your vote matters so much more. Like in Utah the governor primary in the gop was decided by 40k votes.


Liobuster

And how much impact in grand politics does a local gov have? (Genuine question because over here all they do is on the level of deciding parking fees and rubber stamping construction projects)


Banluil

A state governor has a LOT of impact on how your life is in an individual state. For example, many states are now passing anti-abortion laws. Without a governor to sign those into power, the laws will not pass. A democrat governor in that state, could veto that law for the state, and unless the legislature for the state can over-ride the veto, the law will not go into effect. The governor for each state is like a mini-president for that individual state.


firechaox

Local politics is generally very impactful in your day to day life. Fixing potholes and/or speeding or local housing regulations are all very tangible effects that impact your day to day life, more than foreign policy. On average (there are exceptional moments and exceptional decisions), local politics has a bigger impact in your day to day life than national politics. It’s just definitely not as sexy. Like think about it: traffic while unsexy, has a major impact on your life. If you manage to cut out half of your commute in terms of time, that’s like a large amount of extra time in your day you get back. And that’s a local issue,


Eleftherias

I would argue the difference is how and who the impact is being directed. Policies causing poverty are largely debated and indirect on how those policies cause it, leading to easy passing of the blame. It also only directly affects a subset of individuals. Meanwhile, this policy is caused by specific politicians and directly connected from the policy to the result. In addition, this policy is something that is affecting everyone that wants to access the content, which is bigger than what politicians would have you believe. It doesn't matter if you are homeless with a phone connected to a restaurants wi-fi or Scrooge McDuck in your McMansion, it will affect you. With the various sites having their own messages listing why you cannot access them, they are in effect campaigning directly to their userbase to vote out the politicians who did this. tldr: Poverty is hard to connect to politicians and does not directly impact as many people as this policy does


PKFat

Ppl aren't rly bothered from what I've understood. Ppl that are looking for free porn aren't exactly concerned with how they get it. Shadier sites & VPNs that shirk the laws make getting free porn accessable still enough that the masses happy. And it's not hitting all sites, just the sites that have sunk a substantial amount of cash in their site like pornhub. Xhampster had this video for a while, but they caved to age verification. Safer sites like those have more to lose from implementation of ID verification - the states that require ID *want* the big sites to fuck up so they can be made examples of. Meanwhile, shadier sites like Xvideo DGAF bc their servers are prolly off in a country that DGAF & state government can't touch them. I'm kinda curious about how this is going to look in a post Proj '25 Merika bc I can totally see the GOP attempting to make this a federal law. Then they *could* do things like shutdown VPNs & have the FBI do server raids on the shadier sites like they did over copyright strikes.


Beardeatee

The hub suddenly having a massive influx of users from Albania.


leaving-ama

I mean, why not just use another site for porn? People really seem to have brand loyalty for what they use to jack off


Omnizoom

Well you clearly have never looked for that one particular video from 7 years ago that was just perfect and is “ol reliable”


Raycut9

Then you're not gonna find it on pornhub, they removed all videos from unverified accounts and banned them from uploading a few years back.

DJCorvid

This is part of the problem, sites like Pornhub and others that have verification requirements and a safe browsing experience will obey the law, but sketchier sites full of malware, hosted internationally, and hosting child SA content won't. The government isn't "protecting kids from porn" but rather financially punishing porn creators and sites that play by the rules and funneling users toward illegal content.

Purple-Bat811

It's not that it's impossible to age verify someone. It's more of a huge invasion of privacy. What if the system gets hacked and everyone's id's get leaked out on the internet? Pornhub is just dealing with the law in a way that won't open them up to future law suits.


ZijoeLocs

It's also just neither financially nor technologically advantageous for them to make the changes. Adding an age verification system connected to Govt issued ID is wildly expensive and requires a lot of infrastructure inconsistent with a video hosting website


StarChaser_Tyger

Wait, so is it black midget lesbians and donkeys, or black midgets and lesbian donkeys? Asking for a friend.


Rundstav

Yes


MisterMysterios

Well, in general, if you make these laws, it should be the government to create the necessary infrastructure to enable age verification. Take for example ther German eID. Even though this system is hardly ever used, it provides an easy and accessible system for age verification. If you have your ID (which you are required to own by law) a card reader and your PIN for the ID, a website can send a simple age verification request to the governmental issued program for access to the eID. That program is designed to give a simple "yes/no" answer to the age verification request. There is no additional information given out beyond a "younger or older than 18", this minimising the security risk for data leaking.


Shauiluak

I feel like exposing the identities of people who go on porn sites is part of the plan honestly.


Normal-Selection1537

It certainly is. Project 2025 aims to make porn illegal and then you can selectively target your enemies while pretending it's for moral reasons. It's basically the criminalization of weed repackaged.

_Svankensen_

And that's if PornHub leaks. I imagine [horseporn.com](http://horseporn.com) would have laxer security standards, and a lot of us would be way more interested to see who goes *there*. ^(BTW, checked the site to see if it was real. It is. It is weird but SFW.)

AxiosXiphos

Even worse; if the your I.D can be linked with what you have been watching. Look... we have all looked at some weird shit on pornhub late at night when bored.


AlabamaPanda777

It's more that it costs money to implement age verification. And that money is lost when most people just search for sites that don't verify instead. They did it once, it just didn't work financially.

What do you mean, impossible to verify? You mean the "yes, i'm older than 18" button isn't legit?

Yes, that's not good enough for the government, unfortunately, they want verification via something like a government issued ID or SSN

VAhotfingers

She’s been nothing but good to me in the past. I get why she’s doing what she’s doing. The whole things is bullshit. Especially since these laws were put in place by Trump supporters…and Trump literally paid to have sex with a porn star. It doesn’t bother them when their dear leader is out there being “immoral”, but for any regular person to have access to porn is a bridge too far apparently.

FartherAwayLights

Republicans have passed a bunch of laws that require age/ ID verification for viewing pornhub in states they control. This effectively kills pornhub on those states because no normal person is going to send a photographed picture of their ID for a porn company to hold for like fifty different rational and irrational reasons.
