Americans are worrying about their ‘freedom’ as Pornhub is banned in three more states.
The NSFW site is one of the largest pornography websites in the world but that might all change as new bans come into effect.
Pornhub has already been officially banned in Kentucky, Indiana, Idaho, Kansas, Nebraska, Texas, North Carolina, Montana, Mississippi, Virginia, Arkansas, Utah and Florida.

Now, three more states have been added to the list and they include Louisiana, South Carolina and Tennessee.
This has caused quite a stir on social media as people have shared their concerns over what this means for their rights and freedoms.
On Reddit, one user shared the news, writing: “Pornhub is now blocked in almost all of the US south. As of today, three more states join the list of 17 that can't access Pornhub because of age verification laws.”

Another queried: “I wonder what is the problem they have with Pornhub specifically. Like y’all banning Pornhub but not OnlyFans, make it make sense.”
This prompted a reply from a third user who said: “The states aren’t banning Pornhub. Pornhub is just the only company that refuses to comply with the age verification law. Pornhub is banning them.”
Some people on the social media platform expressed worries over their freedom, with one person commenting: “Are y’all sure you’re the land of the free??”
Another said: “That's freedom and small government right there.”

And a third person asked: “Why the f*** are we worried about stupid s*** like this but not healthcare and housing?”
A fourth user added: “You can bet a National porn ban is coming soon.”
And another joked: “DVD sales are about to make a comeback.”

Speaking about Florida’s intentions of banning Pornhub in the state, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said earlier this year when the bill was first signed into law: “You can have a kid in the house safe, seemingly, and then you have predators that can get right in there into your own home.
“You could be doing everything right but they know how to get and manipulate these different platforms.”
Aylo, the parent company of Pornhub, has since released a statement. It read, as per People: “Any regulations that require hundreds of thousands of adult sites to collect significant amounts of highly sensitive personal information is putting user safety in jeopardy.
“Moreover, as experience has demonstrated, unless properly enforced, users will simply access non-compliant sites or find other methods of evading these laws.”
