Why did Pornhub block access in Utah?

Pornhub blocked access in Utah as a direct response to a state bill that demanded all devices sold in Utah to automatically enable pornography filters by default. The legislation aimed to protect children from exposure to adult content. By blocking access, Pornhub was effectively protesting the law, highlighting concerns over censorship and digital rights. The company's decision aimed to draw public attention to the potential implications of the mandate, such as overreach into personal freedoms and the effectiveness of government-mandated controls on internet content.
