Pornhub has shut off access in Mississippi and Virginia to protest age verification laws that can involve checking government IDs. It previously blocked access in Utah.

    This actually pushed me and a couple of friends to subscribe to Nord; I’d been thinking I should get a VPN for a while anyways. I looked through VPN’s and I ended up liking Nord’s feature set and price vs ExpressVPN. Never thought I’d use them back when they were EVERY video’s sponsor on YouTube lol.

      If true that Nord lobbied for this, run away. That company will not respect your privacy.

      Mullvad is decent and has a track record of being subpoenaed by LE but keeping nothing, so having nothing to show. Tho I’m sad they just got rid of port forwarding (only affects seeding torrents)

        Nord VPN also keeps logs and has handed them over to police forces.

        So far I’m like the proton suite, have my email and VPN through them.
