Rhode Island Moves to Tax Porn

[MsCheyenne]

The state of Rhode Island has introduced a bill that will block all adult content unless a $20. fee is paid. They are presenting this as a human trafficking protection law but, it is pretty clear that it is just a tax. Interesting coming from an already high tax state where prostitution was legal until just a few years ago. I have to wonder if all states pass this, how it will work in regard to the price of purchasing porn. Here is an article about it. R.I. bill would impose fee for accessing online porn - News - providencejournal.com - Providence, RI

"Each quarter the internet providers would give the money made from the deactivation fees to the state’s general treasurer"
HUH?????

The bill was introduced by Democrats... What a surprise.

Antiporn is the new porn.

How will that effect free sites, out of States or out of US countries?

Could be a blessing in disguise if you're based in Rhode Island.

"All of your porns are belongs to us."
