   The Happy Hippy to All   
   Ooh-Err Missus - Pornhub pulls out of UK   
   27 Jan 26 17:53:43

   Pornhub has announced it will restrict access to its website in the UK,   
   blaming the tougher age checks which have been introduced for explicit sites.   
      
   From 2 February, only people who have previously made a Pornhub account will   
   be able to access its content.   
      
      
      
   I'm not surprised. "Enforce age checks or don't supply content" has led to a   
   number of foreign businesses pulling access from UK users, and it's not just   
   Porn, it includes some which UK businesses and citizens rely upon.   
      
   Given people only need to slip something Spineless Starmer considers dodgy on   
   to a site, and tip off Ofcom, it might not be long before Brits can only   
   access government approved British web sites.   
      
   Keeping children safe by destroying Britain.
