The US is a very conservative country and the attitudes here towards sex are way behind Europe's--even in SoCal. And I'm not sure porn is technically legal--just ask Max Hardcore.

When the bank told me they were closing my account, I insisted on speaking to someone at the bank about it, and finally--after I kept going to see the local bank manager--a compliance officer called me. He mumbled stuff about how the government is closely monitoring banks as to where deposits are going and where funds are being sent... which doesn't make a lot of sense as my biggest client uses Wells Fargo, and the last time I had a wire from overseas was five years ago. But that was all I could get out of him. Earlier, the bank manager asked me if I was in the marijuana business, or in online gambling, or was getting a lot of wire transfers from abroad--no, to all three.

I knew why they were dumping me though--because I'm in the porn biz.
