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

[–] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Because it's simple and it works. When most people want to watch porn they don't spend an hour researching their best option, they just go somewhere they know and watch something there.

pornhub is so sanitized now, im guessing its mostly because of the OF videos. most of them are on sites that arnt affiliated with PH.

I mean for context with the TikTok comparison using a VPN didn't get you around the TikTok ban unless you also made an entirely new account.

Dont stand between the French and porn apparently.

Anyone with more than two brain cells to click together could have told them this would happen. Some of them did. Not that they would/did listen.

Ah yes, chat control, the crackdown on encryption, backdoors, etc., all forgotten? So now thousands of French people are deliberately using VPNs for something that is now illegal. Well, the politicians won't take advantage of this to take action against VPNs and encryption... To protect the children, of course...
