A Senate bill that would require Canadians to verify their age online before accessing porn is moving through the House of Commons without the support of the Liberal government.

    I wonder how many senators think all porn is hosted on pornhub. It’s comical how it’s the most legally compliant and ethical porn site out there by a mile, yet it still gets targeted by every pearl-clutching legislator

      They were knowingly hosting CSAM and revenge porn until not too long ago… Funny how the FBI is investigating it but as far as we know nothing’s happening on the Canadian side…

        They were not knowingly hosting CSAM and revenge porn, they took quick steps to lock down the site and strengthened their verification procedures when they found out.
