This isn't even about porn addiction, it's definitely a "think of the children!" scenario by the right-wing pearl clutchers. Meanwhile, there's tons of horrible shit on the Internet freely available that they don't seem to care about, along with nudity in movies. Also I love how that article claims that "residents will have to go to the deep dark corners of the internet to get their porn once pornhub is blocked" as if hundreds of other porn sites not owned by that company don't exist 🤣 The Internet and tech improvements are literally driven by porn consumption. IDK what the number is now, but like 5-10 years ago it was "40% of all internet traffic is porn related".
