At the dawn of the new year, Pornhub will leave Florida. Thanks to a harsh new age verification law that takes effect on January 1, the porn giant will no longer do business in the sunshine state. The law mirrors similar laws passed in other Republican led states where Pornhub has stopped doing business.

    This is just a blatant power grab. It’s not about porn, after all if they were really concerned about nsfw sites they’d be happy with how easy the site is to regulate. If they wanted to they could potentially find a way to bring in tax revenue with it.

    This is all about control and getting people used to having the government invading their privacy. Over time they’ll shift and start invading other online spaces.
