It's been 2 years since I posted my first map here covering the states where Pornhub decided to block themselves in protest of states' passing age-verification laws to view adult content. Since then, over these past 2 years, the number of new states that have passed age-verification laws has expanded dramatically, along with the number of states that Pornhub has decided to block themselves in out of protest.

Since July of 2024, the following states have joined Pornhub's block list: Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Missouri, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, West Virginia, and Wyoming.

In addition, age-verification laws for adult content have been passed in Iowa, Louisiana, and Ohio as well, but Pornhub has not yet fully blocked itself in these states. Pornhub is still restricted, however, and requires age verification to access.
