    Afaik Pornhub is based in Québec, which has data privacy/protection laws through law 25 (French, will need to translate it). I’ve had some experience with it on some projects in the last few years, would not surprise me if that was contributing to the decision as well. I’m assuming they would still need to adhere to law 25 and whatever local laws in locations they operate in, could totally be wrong there.

      Poilievre has stated he wants to introduce the same age verification laws, so it will be interesting to see how Pornhub reacts to those laws once they are introduced especially since they’re based in Québec like you said.

      Personally, I’ve been stocking up, because you never know when there’s going to be a drought and it always helps to be prepared in life. I think we are in for some very dark years ahead of us.
