I’m one of these Texas motherfuckers getting fucked with by this dumb shit. I am in the market for a cheap, effective VPN.
I’m thinking about trying Express VPN, but I haven’t had time to do all the comparison shopping for which one is actually best. I don’t need a shitload of different devices, all at once. At most, I need to maybe cover one desktop PC and two WiFi devices. But I’d be cool with just one seat.
I’m using Private Internet Access. It was purchased by a company some people think are sketchy, but they work well in my experience and are cheap. If you really need security that you trust, maybe go somewhere else. If you just need a VPN that works and is cheap, it’s an option.
Bout to be CO too, not just limited to red states unfortunately.
Admittedly, it’s not just for porn, but social media in general. Either way, the same reasoning applies, I’m not giving a third party company my identity just for a social media account and I’m certainly not going to do it for porn
Several states with republican leadership have required identification to view sites that have “adult content”. You technically can still access it without a VPN in these states, but I’m not trusting these sites with personally identifying information. Depending on the state I think you have to upload an image of your ID and other information. It’s really sketchy.
It’s still not perfect, though, since technically porn isn’t banned, but it’s effectively banned by requiring ID checking, which major websites like pornhub refuse to do.
But this also allegedly targets “culture”, just like China’s great firewall. It’s pretty damn stupid.
Texas residents using a VPN for porn
And Louisiana. People forget that it was first in the porn ban that doesn’t even work.
Don’t forget Virginia!
Virginia living up to its name with the state mandated NoFap challenge.
I live close enough to Tennessee that I turn off my WiFi and let the cellular take me there haha.

Anyone got recommendations?
Mullvad VPN is my go-to. No nonsense and meets all of my needs.
Hadn’t even heard of them. I’ll look into it. Thank you!

I just heard that Express VPN was bought by a shady company, too. I wonder if it’s the same one.
EDIT: Yep. It’s the same one. Kape technologies. They are apparently pretty evil.
Try WindScribe. You won’t regret it.
$69 for a yearly plan. They know what it’s being used for.

Can someone explain it to Europeans?

Oh man, this is a much better comparison.
