Porn will never ever crash. It's been going for 1,000s of years. I've seen porn frescoes in a brothel in Pompeii, no I didn't pose for them

And there are earlier examples.

Let's assume the worse of the worse happens and the new laws take porn offline. Then all the people who are now getting their daily dose of free porn will have to buy or go without. Porn is a tool for jerking off, jerking off is addictive, go research it. So millions will have to go and find a porn shop to buy porn from. If it just stops pirated porn, the freeloaders will boost legal Tubes traffic.

Porn will get a boost that will make pornographers, those creating or selling porn, will never forget. Those shoving traffic around the Internet will be fucked. They might be able to open a porn shop, most will be gone.

This is a worse case scenario for online porn. I doubt if SOPA will make any difference except to those who rely on piracy in some way.
