Well, they are in fact breaking the law. Doesn't matter what we think about that law, they're in clear violation. Cannot imagine why they didn't geofence like PornHub did. Hell, I did blocked entire countries at my last job with a simple pfSense router. This ain't rocket science. Guess their greed got 'em?
Also, can anyone explain why a foreign operator would give two fucks? Remember The Pirate Bay's great responses?
Why should any website operator be held responsible for complying with every stupid law in every podunk shithole jurisdiction everywhere in the world? By this logic, every site should comply with whatever unhinged BS North Korea and Saudi Arabia insist upon, too -- is that what you want?
If Florida doesn't like these websites that are not hosted in Florida, that's Florida's problem, not the website operators', and Florida can do its own damn geofencing itself.

Coomer is mad
Lmao I had to look up what that term even means and saw that it comes from 4chan, which just goes perfect with my impression of you from the rest of what you said earlier. You obviously don't realize how much you're giving away about yourself here with your language. You might as well have started this off by telling us you're talking about "your friend."
Hmm let's see, a dude who hangs out at a site that's world renowned for being the home of the sad, lonely, self-hating individual who's here to give us his hot takes about "this generation" and all "their" preversions. Please regale us with more tales about the deepest thoughts and actions of people who are complete strangers to you. What kind of sick and twisted stuff are "they" watching right now?

He'll be running for higher office very soon. He's been in at least one abhorrent headline a week for months. Hope they find the CSAM on his laptop soon so I can stop hearing about this incompetent asshole
It was planted by evil sick democrats

I agree with every single thing you stated. But the article is about these sites breaking Florida law, and they are. Never said anything about this was sane, but again, if I operated a porn site, I'd fence Florida off as a CYA measure.

No, that's not true. You cannot break a law when the government in question has no jurisdiction over you. The sites are not breaking Florida law because they are not subject to Florida law in the first place.

People are downvoting you because you're telling them that the law isn't fair, sucks my friend.
I do wonder if Xvideos or some of these other companies that are primarily international have any infrastructure in the US/Florida that could be affected by a ruling of some sort. I feel like there might be something there depending on how they're taking payment for services like Xvideos Red.

This is like me saying I have a bucket of books that are illegal in your state but legal in mine. You come to my state and take the books back to yours. Who broke the law?
More like you see a request coming in from FL and you send them there

Don’t request shit you aren’t allowed to have. My state doesn’t ban me from sending it to you, yours bans you from having it. Tf do I care about your state laws. I don’t live there.

Why not both?
Both what?

Let me guess you're just watching all the "tame" step mom videos? I heard those ones are healthier than the step dad videos.
Coom on... it's good for you and your pp. Definitely won't get addicted and want harder stuff down the line.
EnjoyBang on, damn, you got me so good.
Is this really how you carry your arguments? Demeaning and projecting over your opponent? I guess you're safe from all that insane porn now since you're failing the ID check for being underage.

In a state that recently tried removing a bunch of child labor laws.
Wait that's a good point.
If a child works as a porn actor/ess in Florida would they have had protections from the state?
Actually I don't want to know the answer

Correct, services cannot tell where you are coming from when you are using Tor. However, the service itself has no such protection.
With the crackdown that is occurring on the internet, I think everything is going to have to go into hidden services to remain censorship resistant.
Edit: I think it best to prepare for a world where the only use for the ClearNet is to download Tor, similar to how the only use for Microsoft Edge on Windows is to download Firefox.
Eventually, there may come a day where the clear net is just not used at all.
Cool, same page.
I þink you're more optimistic about how much þe average person cares þan I am.

I’d argue it’s on the state to figure that out (for better or worse). My site is on a globally connected network, if you don’t want your citizens doing something, you figure it out. It’s not my job.
Well true, but look at the EU.

Solution:
Make a site only available in [insert a privacy-respecting country]
Then anyone else gets redirected to a "This website is not available in your country, please use a VPN and set it to [country]"
???
Profit?

Not every site, but if they’re making money from people in Florida they would be subject to Florida law:
Sites outside the country are probably fine but if they’re in the USA not using a geolock is foolish.

Its kinda funny how this bill is being introduced under the premise of "protecting children" but Girls Gone Wild is still allowed to operate after getting caught multiple times distributing child pornography
And by funny obviously I mean horrifying
Not funny like a Woody Allen movie, funny like a Woody Allen marriage

State prosecution argues if there's access in Florida, the site must follow their laws. These sites need to georestrict access and should have done it the day law went into effect.
Pornhub blocked Texas day one

People are being downvoted because no one is beholden to the laws of a state/province/jurisdiction/etc that they have no relation with. Foreign authorities do not get to force their will onto foreign entities.
