I thought it was pretty clear that the GP comment is suggesting that PornHub et al will simply stop serving to the EU, which is a perfectly fine, legal thing to do. If that’s what happens, you will need to use a VPN to access these sites, should you want to do that.

Not unless the EU blocks them. They could still offer the site and just not have any offices in the EU or do business with EU entities in the EU (although they could do business with Pornhub in the US I guess).

  > Not unless EU blocks them. I would love to see EU try mass-blocking VPNs without managing to unintentionally block a bunch of AWS ranges and other accidental targets. I spin up an AWS EC2 instance, use it as a VPN, and then what is EU gonna do? Ban AWS IPs? Sure, you can say an average person wouldn’t even really know what AWS is. So being able to spin up an AWS instance and use it as a VPN is beyond reach for for an average person. But don’t worry, there are a lot of products (some of which are nearly free) and providers addressing that exact issue. Spoiler: EU won’t ban VPNs, unless they end up fully committed to looking like clowns that are chasing CCP ambitions, but without the CCP level of expertise and skill.
