Florida recently passed a controversial age verification law, but Pornhub isn't ready to issue threats just yet.

A slew of conservative states have recently passed age verification laws for websites and, in response, Pornhub has gotten in the habit of shutting off service in those states rather than acquiescing to local regulations. The company has already shut off service in six states, including Texas, Utah, Mississippi, Arkansas, North Carolina, and Virginia. Florida could be next. Or maybe not.

We hope elected officials will choose to implement a form of age verification that actually makes the internet safer and preserves user privacy, as opposed to haphazard and ineffective implementation that, in practice, does the opposite of its stated goals.” Pornhub/Aylo’s argument is basically that if porn viewers don’t get porn from them, they’ll be compelled to go to sketchier, darker parts of the web to get it.
