Just a reminder, banning porn doesn't just mean going after OnlyFans or Pornhub. It also means banning written erotica. Smutty voice audios. Video games with sexual content. Your favorite romantasy novels. Fetish photography. Erotic art.
It's never just about pornographic films.

The censorship of 80+ games on Steam this week was apparently the work of Australian antiporn group Collective Shout, which partnered with US evangelicals to pressure Visa and Mastercard.
They claimed, without evidence, that the games involved child abuse.

The Dem co-sponsor of the now-defeated right-wing age-verification bill in Colorado is saying the opposition "went off the rails"
By which they mean we brought up how it could easily be weaponized against LGBTQ groups and Planned Parenthood.

In Colorado bill debate over social media and porn sites, when does protection of kids become overreach?
A trio of bills aimed at regulating the internet to protect Colorado children have run into a wall of opposition over worries they’d infringe on First Amendment rights.
