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

It's not about blocking porn.
It's always about control. Conservatives want to control how you consume sexual content.
It's not about that either. It's about connecting photo ID to browsing profiles and deanonymising the internet.

Jokes on them I just have an incredibly high volume of DNS traffic

Edit: Didn't get the joke first lol

The VPNs will be harder to ban. Not just from a technical standpoint, but politically as well. Big businesses will be absolutely opposed to VPN bans.
There will be a lot of businesses who feel the (justified) need to hide the entrypoint to their infrastructure behind a VPN.

Does oglaf count as porn?
Asking for a friend.Well, it's blocked by my porn blocker, so I'd say yes
-
So, all the uploaders deserve a ban?
I'll make an exception for uploaders.

It's not. I use next and it's blocked.

Plus an excuse to collect more data.
Yeah the point is just to soften the populace to the idea. Our fucking PM covered for pedophile priests in a Catholic school 30 years ago, he doesn't give any fuck about kids.

Texas isn't the first. I think it was started by Germany? I know the UK banned women's orgasms and Australia banned hentai. Heck, India apparently banned porn altogether, ineffectively.
Australia banned hentai
Did we? My scientific search the other night proves that false, and I'm not on VPN.

I know the UK banned women’s orgasms
Why? To prevent British women from having expectations?

I'm shocked that this many people feel the need to disobey a rule that is only there to help the children. Next step must be to ban VPNs altogether, and enforcing all Internet users to be identified with their real identity (/s obviously).
if the VPN ban doesn’t work then the only reasonable course of action would be to ban the internet entirely. it’s the only way the children can be truly safe.

Or as they call it in France, Le Porn

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

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Tumblr the Depraved?
I still miss og tumblr and my little porn account i had going there.

¿Por que los dos?

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

You can say porn here on lemmy
wrote last edited by [email protected]But think of the children!!!
Because for the right, apparently saying porn or fuck or shit is bad for children, but people grooming the same children is fine.
But in all seriousness, being goomed by 2 people when I was not even 14 has done more damage to me than playing black ops 2 with all the graphic scenes on my Wii-U when I was 12, and trust me, in that game I have heard the word fuck more times than I could count back then

They should actually take to the streets (again). Not joking. What is this nanny-state BS?
-
French politicians passed a law that requires porn sites collect pii (identity) in order to access the site. PornHub won’t violate the privacy and security of their users, so they simply block the locales that pass such laws.

Dr. Cox was right: “I’m fairly sure if they took porn off the internet, there’d only be one website left, and it’d be called ‘Bring Back the Porn.'”
Bro's name is Dr. Cocks

Blocking porn has got to be the most "why even bother" thing
Like Reddit or YouTube with proper keywords didn't exist
Been there, done that
