VPN Registrations Increase by 1,000%, less than Hour After PornHub Blocked France From Accessing its Website.

These are comics, often with a nsfw gag, it's safe to click on, it's very mild.
Lol, there's even a warning. The first one I saw was fucking hilarious, thanks for the recommendation!

They've been trying to block it for many years now.
France has been going downhill for quite some time. Many proposals for chat control and tracking... even recently, we got a law proposal that aimed at banning E2EE
Damn, the whole world really is going authoritarian.

If you at all think that people can be addicted to social media, you could draw a correlation from this to porn addiction.
I know a lot of you either don’t think porn can be addictive and/or don’t think it can have negative effects on society.
Ask yourselves why the logic works for social media but not porn.
EDIT: I’m gonna have to do an experiment and see if I get more downvotes for saying negative things about porn or positive things about Israel. Unfortunately I think it’d be pretty close.

Because they're two completely different things.

You misunderstand, France didn't block pornhub, pornhub blocked France.
It is to protest against a new law requiring porn site to verify the users age. Which they argue will have dire consequences for security and privacy (I fully agree about the danger)
They did the same in my puritanical US state that passed a similar law.

I feel they could easily ban VPN companies (maybe?), which is what 99.9% of people that want to browse from a different location use.
This won’t affect companies at all as they would be using their own VPN.
VPN becomes VPS and life goes on.

There are other, much better sites, lol.

I’d like to hear more about how that works…
It's called DNS tunneling it's typically used for data exfiltration tactics, but it's also great if you're desperate to punch through even the toughest paid WiFi paywalls to Google something really
quickslow because you fucked something up on your phone lmaohttps://dmachard.github.io/posts/0047-dns-tunneling-overview/

Does oglaf count as porn?
Asking for a friend.I had totally forgotten oglaf existed, thanks for the reminder!

Well, yes… but still…
I don’t know what you meant

They always have a "good" reason to remove our freedom, because apparently security seems much more important, and it seems like it’s the only way to do it. Lol.

Politically speaking, it's easy money. You pander to the conservatives with blocking propositions, get votes.
*Who is going to champion the flip side?!"
Me. Porn is fine. Teach your children how to handle it. Teach them that it's not realistic and some of it is straight-up dangerous. Put a filter on your internet if you're too scared to talk to your kids about uncomfortable topics.

More than TikTok's US ban doesn't mean much given TikTok blocked user accounts who originate from the US regardless of VPN location
Edited for clarity: given
theyTikTok blocked, usersaccounts -
Yes, there are. But you misunderstood the news: France didn't block pornhub, pornhub blocked France as a protest against a new law.
Passings laws we don't like?
NO PORN FOR YOU!!!

I have to admit, of all the nations on earth, I never expected this sort of puritanical theatrical authoritarianism out of the french.

Blocking porn has got to be the most "why even bother" thing
VPN companies and data brokers have a financial incentive to lobby for intrusive age-verification and restrictions, and prudish politicians are conveniently present in every political system. The porn lobby is powerful, but it seems they've been losing this battle recently. Or maybe they're cutting deals with the data brokers, who knows.
