In other words: it's too easy for people under 18 to watch porn for free so we need to make adults pay for it again. Further, too much free porn is eroding the moral fabric of our societies, it would be argued, regardless of the age of who watches it. RESTRICTIONS MUST APPLY!
"But tubes are located in non-US territories where such laws do not apply!" Indeed - so do big Hollywood movies get pirated all over the world and the MPAA can do nothing about it? Yes - and no.
It's all about reduction, not elimination. Will there always be free porn? Yes - until the above happens, and even when/if it does a smart surfer will always know where to go to get his (free) porn fix. But for the 95% of humans who are too lazy, too law abiding, too "moral" or too ignorant, they will end up complying with age verifications, pay walls, etc. The good ol' days are back!
Any other discussions, fascinating as these are, are just verbal masturbation. So you can either play ball in a rigged game (as I and many others do) or walk away and do something else for a living.

I want you think about the following:
image this surreal idea:
IF it would be possible to produce a car one time - after that everyone can press a button and copy it with no costs, no efford, no human work - do you think that people would buy cars?
or would it not make more sense to copy a car for each human with a few ads on it and make an industry from that?
HOW do you want to prevent USERS to copy content and make their own tube without advertising just on their harddisc?
how many videos does ONE human need for that?
even if he watches 3 full length videos every day of his life he would need need around
50.000 of them what is not even a tenth of what a big tube provides.
a tube just makes this hard disc unnecessary and with the adspots around it creates an industry what is the BASE of ALL OTHER industries in the world.
you guys are only mad because you can SEE that. but what you can NOT SEE are the numbers of stolen videos that are PRIVATELY exchanged.
if you would see THIS number you would realize that tubes are the MUCH MUCH smaller problem and advertising on free pornsites did not destroy but save the porn industry - even when the income flow have changed to a more indirect payment.
worldwide there are some roads under construction which have a technology to produce electricity when cars driving over them.
so toll roads can be turned into free roads and the more they are used the more profitable they become.
shit is not shit - you can grow trees with shit
