I haven’t seen anyone else mention this, but about a month ago they banned porn sites in my state. Like– you can’t open a private tab, you can’t sign in to access it, you straight up cannot open or look at porn websites like Pornhub or XHamster or PornMD etc here in Texas without a VPN. This shouldn’t be considered a legal thing to do. They didn’t directly ban pornography here, but they might as well have.
And it may not seem like much. It starts with small things like this, and then– what next? Are they going to ban LGBTQ content for being “inappropriate for children?” Next they might just outright outlaw pornographic material altogether. The bar is just going to keep getting raised, and don’t think it won’t.
This is not okay. I hate the sanitization of the internet.
