A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I changed my vpn to several locations to see what would happen when I brought up pornhub and xnxx. Miami blocked pornhub, but not xnxx. Houston and Atlanta blocked neither. YMMV
Perhaps they have made the decision to treat all IP addresses that aren't officially marked as residential connections in known locations as being in international waters. As the wave of censorship continues, they'll most likely be required to block VPN users and other "data centre" IPs well before the VPN services themselves are banned.
