This is literally a plot by pornhub and other porn sites who comply to make braindead coomers vote for regressive leftist politicians.
Edit: don't know why this got downvoted.
Porn is everywhere on the internet. It really is much easier to find another website than it is to vote. You can even go on reddit and find porn and I'm sure people will upload pornhub videos to reddit.
This is the worst thing that could happen to companies like PornHub, not some sorta QAnon conspiracy theory to get people to vote.
EDIT: for the record, sites with content that let's than 33% porn will be excluded from age verification. Twitter, FB, and Reddit will easily fall under that threshold.
Funny how Google TOS prohibits porn apps but for some reason reddit is just fine.
With the insane amount of nonsense content on Reddit, even with all the porn it's gotta be well under 33%.
All the posts that never go anywhere and the thousands of communities with hundreds of posts that nobody but the dozen people in them ever see.
Depends on how you measure it.
If it is measured by bandwidth/customer usage, then all those nobody posts will be subsumed by a singular post from a big porn subreddit and don't matter, reddit likely would be crossing that 33% threshold.
If it is measured by "incidents"/number of files, then porn sites can just fill a back section of the website with junk data, a billion AI-generated pictures of blank walls, and be considered a non-porn site.
If it is measured by pure data storage size of the content, Pornhub could just put behind a set of warning links a 10000000TB picture of a white square, with a note "NEVER CLICK ON THIS!", and be considered a non-Porn site. And of course, porn amalgamator websites that just link, have no uploaded porn data on them, so they wouldn't be caught in the net at all.
