Arizonans frantically Googling ‘VPN’ after Pornhub ban
www.phoenixnewtimes.com
Pornhub cut off access to Arizona last week. You can get around it with a VPN, as many are learning for the first time.

    Imagine being so stupid that you think Pornhub is the only place to get porn.

      It isn’t the only place, but it is one of the few where the content is somewhat searchable on top of just having a very large amount of content.

      Plus people like to stick with what they know.

      Lol yeah, they’ve been out of TX for some time now, and it hasn’t affected my fapping habits one bit.

      Well there is sth with hamsters.

      However lots of the old porn websites are bought by pornhub. And via some weird business shit even nutaku is part of pornhub.

      So you have an almost monopoly here.

      All the other sites are much more shady and can not be used without an adblocker (I know everyone should already have one, but most people don’t)

      That’s true, however, I think they are the largest platform for user-submitted content that allows them to profit from their work.

      I’m pretty sure PornHub is just the most well-known example and they happen to own something like 5 others of the top ten most visited porn sites on the net.
