    So parents would rather let kids watch porn than comply with age verification laws

    FTFY. Pornhub doesn’t have kids, parents and guardians do. Unlike schools, Pornhub has zero in loco parentis rights or responsibilities. Instead, parents and guardians do.

    But in Utah and NC, recognizing the futility of being able to comply with the laws as written, Pornhub is OVERCOMPLYING.

    In those states, Pornhub is ensuring that NO ONE of ANY age watches their content. (And you’re fooling yourself if you think this has fuck all to do with protecting minors anyway.)
