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:
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.
