Or as they call it in France, Le Porn

I have to admit, of all the nations on earth, I never expected this sort of puritanical theatrical authoritarianism out of the french.

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Tumblr the Depraved?
I still miss og tumblr and my little porn account i had going there.

It's not about that either. It's about connecting photo ID to browsing profiles and deanonymising the internet.
¿Por que los dos?

They've been trying to block it for many years now.
France has been going downhill for quite some time. Many proposals for chat control and tracking... even recently, we got a law proposal that aimed at banning E2EE

You can say porn here on lemmy
But think of the children!!!
Because for the right, apparently saying porn or fuck or shit is bad for children, but people grooming the same children is fine.
But in all seriousness, being goomed by 2 people when I was not even 14 has done more damage to me than playing black ops 2 with all the graphic scenes on my Wii-U when I was 12, and trust me, in that game I have heard the word fuck more times than I could count back then

They should actually take to the streets (again). Not joking. What is this nanny-state BS?

French politicians passed a law that requires porn sites collect pii (identity) in order to access the site. PornHub won’t violate the privacy and security of their users, so they simply block the locales that pass such laws.

Dr. Cox was right: “I’m fairly sure if they took porn off the internet, there’d only be one website left, and it’d be called ‘Bring Back the Porn.'”
Bro's name is Dr. Cocks

Blocking porn has got to be the most "why even bother" thing
Like Reddit or YouTube with proper keywords didn't exist
Been there, done that

Could just be their local internet quality. Which, still, not a VPN problem.
Sometimes routing between two IPs is fucked. Had that, and proxying to another location then to the destination again fixed it. Internet
-
I'm shocked that this many people feel the need to disobey a rule that is only there to help the children. Next step must be to ban VPNs altogether, and enforcing all Internet users to be identified with their real identity (/s obviously).
Don't give them ideas. If they block no-log VPNs I'm going to become a real threat

Also, when in France, who needs porn when you have Eva Green?
Cringe, pls delete
-
Why do the French even need Pornhub when their basic movies are very porn adjacent?
You mean they like their government likes to fuck them?
-
How about you just parent your children? But it's not about the children, that's just always the convenient excuse
-
That's because they banned the accounts.
Anyone who has an account on pornhub deserves their ban.
Why? Making playlists and commenting gameplay is great

"Children should be reading good old stories like 120 days of Sodom, not this Pornhub filth" - probably some French conservative somewhere.

Reminds me of when my buddies discovered our friend’s YouTube account… He only had one public playlist, and it was 100% full of softcore porn. Nothing else. It was all softcore porn. We gave him a pretty good ribbing for that one, and still make a point of reminding him that better porn sites exist every time it comes up.

If you at all think that people can be addicted to social media, you could draw a correlation from this to porn addiction.
I know a lot of you either don’t think porn can be addictive and/or don’t think it can have negative effects on society.
Ask yourselves why the logic works for social media but not porn.
EDIT: I’m gonna have to do an experiment and see if I get more downvotes for saying negative things about porn or positive things about Israel. Unfortunately I think it’d be pretty close.
So alcohol and tobacco should be entirely banned as well? We should start with these, they're way worse
