Pornhub, one of the leading adult sites, has blocked access from Mississippi and Virginia in protest of the introduction of mandatory age verification. The site has raised concerns about the privacy and data security threats associated with these laws.
Pornhub has experienced loss of traffic in the past following the introduction of similar rules in Louisiana, proving their inefficiency and difficulty in enforcement. The company also offered alternative device-based age verification methods instead of collecting government IDs and credit card numbers.
These age verification measures are generating controversy and criticism from Pornhub and other major players in the online adult industry. The issue of age verification and its effectiveness is becoming increasingly relevant and needs to be discussed more carefully in order to protect data and freedom of expression on the Internet.
