also say goodbye to rebills

so sure, same amount of customers and potential customers thanks to VPN's, but what's the point if those customers can't be monetized?

also more difficulty using social media. if porn was banned in the US I bet a lot more of them would drop adult

plus even MORE stigma for peeps in porn and sex workers? fun fun

so yeah, on whole I think a ban on porn would have an overall negative impact on the industry

just my

good luck with your surgery CS!
If porn was made illegal, all you would do is join as many porn sites before it was illegal, save everything to hard drive, then flog it pirated for cash on cheap hardrives.

Before they made porn (R18) legal in the UK (about the year 2000) I know a few people who made a fortune pirating porn.

One chap I know in 1995 was paying ten people £40k each just to copy VHS porn tapes. He could not keep up with demand.
