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

Pervertube. Thisvid. Motherless.
I just realized indicating these websites might have revealed a little too much about the kinds of porn I like to watch.
️Absolute degeneracy, thank you.

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

Why do people even go to pornhub... there are so many other options

It's an easy proxy.
It doesn’t do the one thing it’s meant to do.

To be fair, potentially addictive or not, I wouldn't support a ban on social media either. The practical requirements needed to effectively restrict access to information in the modern age (both porn and social media being examples of information) are such that I generally view the cure as worse than the disease, so to speak, and view the least bad option as being to just give up on legal restrictions and just deal with the consequences instead. Addiction is harmful, but most consumers of such information aren't harmed by it, and restriction inherently requires monitoring and removing internet anonymity to a degree that I find unacceptable.
Didn’t say anything about banning porn or social media. Just saying that they’re both addictive and have negative consequences on society. Yall can keep your porn. Relax.

Exactly. The world is addicted to porn.

Like Reddit or YouTube with proper keywords didn't exist
Been there, done that
Meanwhile in Australia, they just passed a bill requiring social media to verify the age of their users to make sure they're over 16

This is how young boys learn to computer. It won't do shit to stop anything. It's a waste of time.

Also, when in France, who needs porn when you have Eva Green?
She looks like the tired waitress from IHOP where dreams go to die

This is depressing.

Well – this might be more succesful in boostering the IT skills of France's next generation than any curriculum reform.

Teacher, leave the kids alone!
All and all its just a-nother dick in the porn.

Wait aren't they proposing the same thing in the US as well? It's a fairly standard thing of right-wing governments to just demand the impossible with no understanding about it could possibly be achieved.

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.
You absolutly right, but here in the Mecca of internet freedom, we don't likey.

Ouch
What a great way to prevent minors from living their lives

Why? Making playlists and commenting gameplay is great
And sharing things with your family

How do you know it's just boys? Seems an odd assumption, considering the nature of omission of information with this.

Damn, the whole world really is going authoritarian.
Authoritarians have embraced internet culture somehow.
I'm curious how they got Gen Z so curtailed.

Yes, there are. But you misunderstood the news: France didn't block pornhub, pornhub blocked France as a protest against a new law.
Age verification in a porn database is odd to me, from a privacy point of view AND a massive undertaking for the porn company. And then there's the puritan culture of wanting to block teenagers from watching porn? Seems a very anti-French thing to me, but I'm also pretty ignorant of actual French culture. I assumed French culture would be like, once you have the urges, you'll go seeking, and if you need to look at the internet in the safety of your own bedroom, is better than unexpected pregnancies to satisfy urges.
What's the deal with all of this, anyway? What are the arguments here?
