    Other top porn sites also block Texas after Pornhub did.

    Texas passed a law that says every porn site has to scan government IDs of every visitor to verify the age of every person that views the website. Texas says that citizens of Texas can sue porn sites for not doing this. America doesn’t have a good federal ID system. Every state has different IDs. Porn sites don’t have the technology to scan Texas IDs of every visitor. Logically every porn site is going to block Texas so that they don’t get sued.

    I’m in North Carolina which also passed a similar law and most of the porn sites are blocked if I try to access them. Xvideos is not blocked for whatever reason.
