All the states Pornhub is blocked in as of January 1

New Year's Day has come and gone, which means Pornhub is now blocked in 16 U.S. states.

The site blocked itself from almost all of the American South, as 404 Media put it, as a response to age-verification laws. These are state requirements to submit ID to access websites where over a third of the content hosted is explicit. Louisiana started the trend of passing age-verification bills two years ago; others have followed suit. As of January 1, such laws in Florida and South Carolina have gone into effect.
