Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
For clarification: This map isn't based on any real world data. There is no index. Its only purpose is to depict US states with age verification for porn laws on their books. The rest of the world is coloured in somewhat randomly.
Old version:
Circumventing oppression.
This is Bob. Bob doesn’t upvote data visualization posts without a key or labeled axes.

Be like Bob.
Pro tip: ordinarily, Markdown will delete a single line break in the middle of a block of text, so that if for some reason you're on a system where you have to do your line wrapping manually, you can without worrying about it messing up your formatting. Normally, the only way around this is by putting two line breaks in a row for a paragraph break. You can, however, force Markdown to insert a single line break by putting two spaces at the end of a line.
This is George. There are two spaces at the end of the first two lines of his body.

He's a lot shorter than Bob, and a lot better looking.
(His head is still tilted to the side a little bit since Markdown strips leading spaces at the beginning of a line. I'm not aware of a way to avoid that besides putting your ASCII stick figure inside of a code block (triple backticks on their own line before and after text you want to stay formatted how it is). If anyone has suggestions possibly involving little known Unicode characters please let me know.)
fixed bob thank u
Utah, USA checks out 😏
Pornhub should get into the VPN business 👀
Politicians banning porn are probably already in the VPN business 👁️👁️
Wouldn't providing the circumventing measure themselves potentially open them up to be fucked by the states with the bans? Pun kinda intended.
That was a thing tho, they did that. Friggin VPNHUB it was called. At least I think it was actually them. Not sure if it's still around
So I get Texas and Utah, why is Montana using so many VPNs?
Recently they passed some draconic anti-porn laws and now pornhub is geoblocked in Montana
Ok I missed that news story.
I only know because a friend's from there and people were clowning on Montana for a while when it was announced
Because the data is made up
I added an explanation in the description.
I use a VPN; I'm just not that hot about it.
Seems legit
Afghanistan, really?!
I added an explanation in the description.
Ach so!
You can post the map, but please don't add a misleading caption.
I hope it's fine now
I'd give mine up, but honestly... I miss porn too much
