These glib answers overlook the fact that there is enough political energy behind this on the right that pornhub is blocked in Texas. I stipulate that the tube sites changed the game 15+ years ago and the proliferation of amateur content means no one will ever lack for internet porn to watch. But I think of porn subscription sin taxes as more like cigarette taxes ie you’re primarily trying to inhibit economic actions by and extract tax revenue from the lowest IQ and dumbest consumers in the market. Ie you’re piggybacking off the exploitation to let the government target a population that’s already identified itself as worthy of targeting, and you might also make the exploiters a little less wealthy along the way.

porn should be all .xxx or something urls and anyone who tries to get around it get fined/shut down. OF is obviously just a money laundering racket and should also have the DOJ go at them hard.
like whores and drugs, porn will continue to exist but it shouldn't be so easy to get

Also wild to me with this and gambling and pirating sites that there’s no momentum at the federal level to block/close those paths into our networks. It’s like one day in 1995 an arch libertarian/anarchist programmer bro was like “no it all needs to be open and free” and everyone just nodded along and then agreed to never question that basic axiom of the internet or any of its unintended consequences.

They deserve more blame than you’re willing to attribute to them for being pedos, closeted homos and various other kinds of sex freaks like Jerry Falwell Jr.

We should take more of their money and use it to do something good. This set of circumstances where random whores become decamillionaires in a span of 6 months is revolting.

Same but then I work for a company that lends money to degenerate gamblers at exorbitant interest rates and bankrupts half of them. I dont understand who uses our services too but we are worth like $6bn....
