At the dawn of the new year, Pornhub will leave Florida. Thanks to a harsh new age verification law that takes effect on January 1, the porn giant will no longer do business in the sunshine state. The law mirrors similar laws passed in other Republican led states where Pornhub has stopped doing business.
They have a footprint and servers in the US, which makes them subject to US law. If they shut that down, they could ignore this law, which is frankly more likely than them complying.
