The number of people in the UK visiting the most popular pornography sites has decreased sharply since enhanced age verification rules came into place, new figures indicate.

Pornhub is the UK's most visited website for adult content and it experienced a 47% decrease in traffic between 24 July, one day before the new rules came into place, and 8 August, according to Similarweb's data.

Over the same time period, traffic to XVideos, another leading adult site, was also down 47% and OnlyFans saw traffic drop by over 10%.

This comes after Virtual private network (VPN) apps became the most downloaded on Apple's App Store in the UK in the days after the age verification rules were enforced.

VPNs can disguise your location online - allowing you to use the internet as though you are in another country.

Well they stopped all that other crime, what else are you expecting the police to do with their time?

Is this because of that "YouTube Launches AI Age-Verification in the US thread"?

47% down for the UK but mysteriously an overall 47% up for neighbouring countries without a ban.

NGL if I had a big fat porn data server sitting on an island in my own jurisdiction, I'd probably be lobbying every other country to do this just to drive VPN traffic to my place

I'd set it up in the US Virgin Islands....get it???

Next step, make VPNs illegal.
To protect the children, of course.

My country is an embarrassment. What a waste of police time and resources.

Cat calling and honking your horn at a attractive women is so mild it shouldn't even register, especially not as sexual harassment. It's not as if the men were whipping out their dicks and asking for a BJ.

Fuck my life, we're almost at rock bottom.

Errrr
Erm..

Yeah, about that

Nope. There it is. Rock bottom.

The video they released said there is no law they can arrest the men with, but they pull them over and give a stern talking to. UK is literally karen country now.

If I knew this was happening I'd go and moo at them

It'll go down as a non crime hate incident, which stays on your record..

They don't even have to tell you that you now have it.

And aye, that will flag up in DBS checks, which quite a few employers will check if youre working in just about any job that involves safeguarding

Yeah UK is a shithole. Rest of West Europe is slowly following with France being a second shithole. The rural areas in both are still fine tho I guess.
