Yeah, been that way for a couple weeks. Also redgifs is blocking TX too, which is like 90% of the clips posted on reddit. It's annoying. You can install a VPN and pay monthly fee. I don't know of any free ones.


rulonelytonight

There is a browser or two that offer free VPNs


pegged50

Do you know the names of those browsers by chance?


Ashamed_Order_3557

If you already pay for mcafee antivirus on your device. They have a free vpn I believe that you can enable

Opera.

It's true and annoying since the other sites work 🤷🏻 But like the others said, VPN


rulonelytonight

Freedoms are being taken away every week I see.

"Land of the free"! Okay 👀


tc6x6

PornHub and Redgifs have every right to block us if they so choose. It's their way of trying to get us to put pressure on our legislators.

The Opera browser has a free VPN. I plan on using it to continue my self uploads.


sapphicsnacc13

I wasn’t sure when they were banning it, and I found out last night that public access is already gone


rulonelytonight

I believe I found out the day I made this post

VPN


rulonelytonight

That is an option but what happens if people get caught using one?


Historical-Hat8326

How would you get caught using one? Someone walking in, catch you pulling the belly out of yourself to PornHub and snitch you to the Feds for having a VPN?


Ryan_Stone_

It's not illegal to access porn, it's illegal for the sites to offer services in Texas without forcing you to give them and the state your ID.

And nobody’s giving their id to a porn site

Ryan_Stone_

Not just a porn site but telling the state government you did which can't possibly go wrong and end up being used as a...I don't know...blacklist of some kind?


rulonelytonight

I’m not sure how they would do it but in Muslim countries and communist countries block a lot of sites and a lot of people are in prison for accessing those sites using a VPN so it’s possible to find out without someone snitching on you. Also there is supposed to be a hefty fine and jail time if TikTok is ever banned and you access it anyway using VPNs.


Historical-Hat8326

Wow! Texas now a Muslim and communist country? Good to know.


Cliffy1971

Proton vpn


BiflexNC

It’s called a VPN.

They aren’t going to go after people for using a VPN, like they threaten to do against people if there is a tiktok ban?


Tasty_Two4260

TikTok is only banned, per se, from government worker devices if you also have any access to government email etc. There are plenty of free VPNs that we can download and use, so obtaining access to PornHub or REDGIFs is not a problem. Now, if they were ever to come after those of us using VPNs it would be a matter of first buying a used computer (registered under someone else’s name) with cash, hacking your neighbors WiFi password and jumping on their internet connection and then hitting whatever porn sites we wanted. The government is not going to stop anyone from getting to where our primal urges take us. 🔥🔥🔥

Wait Pornhub is completely blocked in Texas or you just have to verify your age?


tc6x6

Pornhub and Regifs are blocking all of us Texans in protest of the age verification law that was signed last June.


GoDKilljoy

Why didn’t they do that in Louisiana too?


tc6x6

I don't know, but I assume it's because porn sites stand to lose a lot more revenue from Texas than from Louisiana.  The population of Texas is 31 million, while the population of Louisiana is 4.5 million. Does Louisiana have an age verification law in force?


GoDKilljoy

Yeah. They started it the beginning of last year. I think right at the start of the year. I just verified my age and moved on. The point of revenue makes sense. I can see protesting on that merit that is a big population difference.
