Last week&#8217;s showdown in Utah is just more confirmation of this disturbing trend.<\/p>\n<h3>PornHub&#8217;s Boycott of Utah<\/h3>\n<p>Pornography is a $100 billion industry, and PornHub is the most <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/activists-score-win-as-pornhub-sister-site-shutters\/\" title=\"Activists Score Win As Pornhub \u2018Sister Site\u2019 Shutters\">popular pornography website<\/a>. So why would it risk its customer base in Utah by shutting down access to its website for computers containing IP addresses within the state? The answer is simple: PornHub&#8217;s target demographic is children.<\/p>\n<p>The new law in Utah requires users to verify their age with an identification card each time they access websites with content &#8220;harmful to minors.&#8221; This is a sensible restriction on a website such as PornHub that provides a platform for products of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/anti-sex-trafficking-advocates-slam-twitter-on-heels-of-bombshell-lawsuit-from-teen-victim\/\" title=\"Anti-Sex Trafficking Advocates Slam Twitter On Heels Of Bombshell Lawsuit From Teen Victim\">child sexual abuse<\/a>, sex trafficking, rape, and other nonconsensual behavior. But PornHub&#8217;s statement regarding the motivation for its boycott of Utah is telling:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;As you may know, your elected officials in Utah are requiring us to verify your age before allowing you access to our website. While safety and compliance are at the forefront of our mission, giving your ID card every time you want to visit an adult platform is not the most effective solution for protecting our users, and in fact, will put children and your privacy at risk.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Hooking children offers companies like PornHub a huge advantage in creating lifelong customers. PornHub&#8217;s reliance on showing its content to minors can be easily understood in the context of its addictive nature. Young people are easily taken advantage of, and starting them young provides PornHub with an audience more susceptible to long-term addiction and abuse.<\/p>\n<h3>The Harmful Effects of Pornography<\/h3>\n<p>Research is clear that pornography can be extremely harmful to children, as it has negative impacts on the brain and relational development. Some studies show that pornography exposure is a tool in grooming and those exposed are more vulnerable to assault and predatory acts. Pornography wreaks havoc on a user&#8217;s body, mind, and soul. Anyone who regularly engages with pornography is at a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/sarah-huckabee-sanders-the-trump-vaccine-works-and-is-saving-lives\/\" title=\"Sarah Huckabee Sanders: \u2018The Trump Vaccine Works And Is Saving Lives\u2019\">significantly greater risk<\/a> of developing perverted tendencies, as well as having altered brain chemistry that thwarts the potential to cultivate healthy relationships. It also drastically increases rates of isolation and depression, and it bolsters sexual dysfunction. Not only does porn cause tragic mental and physical effects, but dozens of women have sued PornHub for profiting off of rape and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/how-many-more-can-we-get-out-inside-the-frontline-battle-to-end-child-sex-trafficking\/\" title=\"\u2018How Many More Can We Get Out?\u2019: Inside The Frontline Battle To End Child Sex Trafficking\">child exploitation material<\/a>, which makes its business more than just deeply immoral but also highly illegal.<\/p>\n<h3>The Transgender Movement&#8217;s Dangerous Tactics<\/h3>\n<p>Pornographers aren&#8217;t the only ones engaging in the perilous &#8211; but profitable &#8211; tactic of targeting children. It&#8217;s also evident in the transgender movement. Transgender surgery is a $1.9 billion industry. Strategically targeting children who haven&#8217;t reached the age of consent and whose brains haven&#8217;t fully matured provides the transgender cult with a massive opportunity for manipulation. Whether those minors who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/just-like-the-transgender-industry-pornhub-relies-on-targeting-kids\/\" title=\"PornHub targets children, similar to the transgender industry.\">undergo disfigurement surgeries ultimately continue<\/a> down that path or eventually attempt to undo the damage, Big Pharma has gained a lifelong customer.<\/p>\n<h3>The Fight to Protect Children<\/h3>\n<p>Utah joined multiple other states pursuing pro-children measures when Utah Gov. Spencer Cox signed a law in March to protect children from pornography and its dangerous, brain chemistry-altering effects. The federal government is also considering a bill that would enact a similar age verification measure for pornographic websites nationwide. Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, introduced the Shielding Children&#8217;s Retinas from Egregious Exposure on the Net (SCREEN) Act in December.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s time to stand up and protect our children from the left&#8217;s dangerous crusade to sexualize them. We must support laws like the one in Utah and fight against the harmful tactics of companies like PornHub and the transgender movement.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Author:<\/strong> Allison Schuster is a contributor and former intern for The Federalist as well as a proud 2021 graduate of Hillsdale College.
