VPN usage spiked in the US as States ban porn

17 states out of 50 states in the US (more than 33%),have now introduced restrictions for online adult content, blocking access to popular pornographic websites such as Pornhub, RedTube, YouPorn etc. The restriction applies to the under 18 age group and it also requires visitors to provide state-approved identification, such as a passport or driving license.

Critics claim that this is a violation of user privacy, with Pornhub, RedTube and YouPorn parent company Aylo claiming that it also puts people’s personal data at risk. These company have withdrawn its websites from these states as a result of the laws.

Further restrictions could be introduced under Donald Trump’s administration as controversial Project 2025 plan states :-

"Pornography should be outlawed. The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned”.
