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

Stop with the classy French French! I want vulgar Canadian French.
"Ahh tabernack! T'es une vrai p'tite pute! T'fesse va ê're plein de ma cum comme u'poutine!"
"Mais fuck you! Plus vite MAINTENANT... OUAI YEAH! COMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEEE ÇÇÇÇÇAAAAA!!!! Fuck me t'as une monstre cock!"
O.M.G.
That would block me instantly but I would have a good laugh

I'd argue that "plus fort" would mean "harder" in this context but I'm not an expert

I remember when the French used to respond to this shit with fire instead
Now we get tear gased and shot with rubber bullets until we become disabled

Why do people even go to pornhub... there are so many other options
What would you recommend?

Are you embarrassed you look at porn? There's plenty of ways to manage without an internet connection. Go grab a compilation torrent.
Even if all these sites went verification tonight, you'd still be able to privately jerk off to whatever it is you want to hide so bad.

Peak French stupidity, this isn't about protecting kids - it's about building surveillance infrastructure. Back in 2024, critics already called this the foundation for a "Great Firewall of France". Once you have the legal framework to block websites and force ISPs to implement monitoring, mission creep is inevitable.
The technical approach is laughably naive. They're essentially creating a centralized system that could easily become a database of citizen sexual preferences. Even with their "double anonymity," you're still creating digital fingerprints and metadata trails.
Most importantly, it won't work. Kids will just use VPNs - the same way adults are already doing. You're not protecting anyone; you're just pushing everyone toward circumvention tools while normalizing government control over what adults can access online.
It's perfectly French because it combines maximum bureaucratic complexity with zero practical benefit, all while creating new opportunities for state overreach. Classic.

Democracy and general Egalitarianism is so 2008. Authoritarianism is what's hot now.

ménage à trois
Should be "plan à trois" I believe
I have no idea what is correct French, but the first phrase is the one that is used in English, I have never heard the second

After the big purge of some years ago, PornHub has became useless. The good real videos are elsewhere.
They removed a lot of videos that were perfectly legal and fine
-
And now they want to keep doing the job of the parents and forbid "social network" to kids 15 and under.

I want to watch one with Marine Le Porn
Deepfakes are bad

Alright! I'm a French speaker and I've never heard "ménage à trois". It could be correct, but that's old language. I believe "plan à trois" is the new thing we say.
Good to know!

I guess this bodes well for Proton becoming increasingly a Google One products replacement with more users potentially paying

Sexual desire is one thing. Pornography is another. Porn is evil.

Given that I torrent without a VPN and it had nothing on there, and it also got my location wrong by over 500km, I dont think I'm too worried.

Location is estimated based on ISP. Always trash

Irrelevant to what I said.

I think the oscillation described people's activity time. Over the course of a day, people who would register for a VPN are much more likely to do so during the evening, because during the day they are busy with work. So you observer on a daily basis a peak like this.
Such charts are very common with services used daily. For example, social media usage in a given region often has a peak during the morning, a big peak during lunch time, and in general goes up after work time.
Of course not everyone works at the same time, but a majority of people have more or less the same work times, so we observe the peaks.
You are right, thanks! I misread the graph and thought it was a 4 cycles per day, which was puzzling me, but is indeed just a daily oscillation
