News and Media Reports

[QUOTE=MisterJao;7346988]I've seen reports that, beginning this fall, Ohio will require registration and proof of age to access adult sites. I'm sure nobody is excited about having their name and personal information on a government-accessible database of people who look at porn. Some sites, like PornHub, have actually stopped serving other states where similar laws have been enacted.

The question is: Has anyone heard whether the law affects only actual porn sites, or will advertising and review sites (like this one) also be affected? Maybe the moderators could weigh in on this if they've heard anything. I would imagine if the law affects this site, they are already working to put the controls in place.[/QUOTE][BLUE]I'm not a lawyer nor have I played one on TV so if there are ny ACTUAL LAWYERS who went to law school, passed the bar, and have a practice that want to tell me if I'm right or wrong please do.


We aren't a porn site, we are a review site which is protected speech. While to content may be about the US there is no part of the site in the US. The owner isn't in nor from the US, the URL isn't registered in the US, and the servers aren't in the US and none of us live in the US. Prostitution is legal in all the countries we have any presence.

If you're uncomfortable use a VPN. If you don't know which to pick then google this term "vpn companies in countries that aren't part of the 14 eyes agreement. There is one that consistantly shows up on the top of all the lists that is based in Lithuania and begins with an N and ends with a D. While this is not an endorsement its the one I personally use.

I wonder if they have an affiliate program.

[QUOTE=Cheech1;7347051]I am hoping that a VPN could be used that could access sites thru a server outside this country. Perhaps Admin has a tip or two about that.[/QUOTE]VPN will work fine.

Stay Safe.

[QUOTE=MisterJao;7347267]From what I heard on the news, sites are supposedly required to prevent access using VPNs and anonymizing browsers, but I guess we'll find out how realistic and effective that is when the time comes.[/QUOTE]Xvideos- not my favorite because most videos are short and seems like advertising for large porn companies.

XnXX- good site a lot of older videos.

Eporner- good site you do have to verify but it's simple.

TnAflix- good site.

There are a few more if you search around.

Stay safe.

Just throwing this in here for posterity. It's already on the massage forum but this section gets used less frequently and is specifically for content like this:

These continued state actions scream that something needs to be done to reign in these bureaucrats, and that something is to VOTE OUT everyone in all political capacities that currently holds a job. We're all paying for these imbecile officials wages as voters, and it's way past time we mobilized as best we can and show everyone else that EVERYONE's rights continue to be trampled on, and no one is safe down the road even if they aren't members of this site or directly partake in any of this site's activities. Our rights continue to be eroded with every passing month, and the only way these politicians understand that their constituents are angry is when they lose in an election.

They change names every couple of years.

Right now we are in the beginning of Project 25. It's only going to get worse from here on out.

But, the bluenoses and church folks and so on run all these pols. Also, there is a substantial women's lobby which absolutely hates the idea that men can get sex without being controlled by a woman. Its one of the ways they control men, by attempting to restrict access to sex, ie. : if you get caught getting some when your wife doesn't want to give it up she can divorce you and attempt to take everything you've got. The courts will just laugh at you if you say to the judge, "But your honor, she wouldn't suck my dick, or she wouldn't give me any pussy, or She weighs 350 pounds and I have to roll her in flour to find the wet spot and I'm not strong enough to roll that tub of lard over. "

I doubt that its going to ever change, we just have to be smarter than the cops.
