I'm not saying we're there yet. But I want to call attention to the growing efforts of the antiporn censors. This is a conservative moment and they're making use of all the tools — laws, intimidation, banking — to go after sex online.
It's Christian nationalists, gender reactionaries and anti-sex censors feeling uncomfortable about sexuality and fomenting a panic about the largest creator revenue generator in the industry.
