        Never, they’ll do what they always do, make laws in a fashion that only applies to the lawmakers

    Golly, if only there was a way to appear as if I were in a different location… a network of tunnels that I could travel through… like a very fast mole…

    the fact that they can comfortably afford to just dump multiple entire states’ worth of customers just shows how mountainous the piles of cash they’re raking in are

    The laws generally require adults to upload some form of government ID

    Absolutely insane, KYC for looking at pornography

    I love how they have some preachy bullshit telling me to vote unlike all the other websites which either 1) let you verify or 2) are ignoring the law

    If TraffickingHub is just pulling out over age verification laws, said laws should be federal. We need to put a stop to the industrialized abuse of women through porn, and this seems like a good way of doing this.

      so we’re just going to ignore the porn done by female presenting creators that they themselves do because they want and like to?

        So because some women do it for themselves it makes it okay for the ones that are abused? is that the argument you’re presenting here?
        be clear.

          Absolutely not. Clear enough?

          What I’m suggesting is that just because some people are abused doesn’t mean we need to dismantle the whole damn thing. We need to fix the problems present while acknowledging and encouraging the positives in it.
