Porn Website Blocks Utah Over Age Verification Law
« on: May 04, 2023, 01:06:50 pm »


As of Monday, a Utah law requires pornography websites to verify the age of anyone visiting those sites from Utah. In protest of the age-verification law, one of the world’s biggest purveyors of online filth has blocked all Utah IP addresses from accessing the site.

As Salt Lake City’s Fox13 reports:

Quote
Pornhub, one of the largest adult content websites on the internet, has blocked Utahns from viewing the site in an apparent protest of a new law forcing stricter age-verification measures.

Website visitors from Utah started noticing the block on Monday morning. At first, Pornhub posted “403 | This state is not whitelisted.” 403 is a computer code for a forbidden site. Later in the day, the site was changed to a lengthy message to users notifying them of why they were blocked.

If the age-restriction rule has general support in Utah, I rather doubt if this is going to cause Utahns to change their collective mind.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
