Pornhub is denying Virginians access to the site because of a new age verification law. The state passed a bill requiring adult sites to use a verification system to stop underage viewers from seeing that content, which takes effect today.

But PornHub, the largest adult streaming service, argues that presenting an I-D card to visit the platform is not the answer; instead, it would put privacy and children at risk.

Pornhub suggests verification should instead happen by verifying certain devices instead of asking for government I-Ds.
