Description

In mid-March, Pornhub stopped service in Texas after a dispute the company says infringes on adults’ rights to access protected speech. According to the Texas Tribune, the site sued Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton last year “to block enforcement of a 2023 state law that requires websites that host pornography to institute age-verification measures and display health warnings on its pages."
