U.S. Supreme Court weighing constitutionality of Texas’ age-verification requirement for porn sites
www.texastribune.org
The Supreme Court’s decision on Texas’ law, which adult entertainment website attorneys said were the most overreaching in the country, could determine the fate of similar laws in more than a dozen other states.

Porn sites are not accessible in Texas as companies cite the onerous process and privacy issues associated with setting up age verification.

    How in god’s good green earth does this law do any of that? It only legally binds American companies, and only where the site is mostly NSFW content.

    Want porn? Go to a UK site. Or go to any site that’s 70% other content. Or if you’re 16 just Google “bikini” and wank to that.

    This accomplishes nothing except the illusion of action, virtue signaling to Christians, and restriction of law abiding adults. Waste of time and money. They should be focusing on real things, the like fact Texas is poor and getting poorer.
