That’s not true. Texas is the largest state to be affected by the pornhub ban, and Texas makes up 9% of the US population. Including all 1216 of the states with pornhub restrictions, the total is actually 24% of the US population. Those are big enough numbers to swing stats.
Now you have to consider which users are more likely to know how to use a VPN on their system and realize that a lot of traffic is being re-routed through other states and countries.
My source was a map posted to Reddit in July 2024. However after doing more research, Wikipedia reports it is now actually 16 states.
Emphasis mine:
February 2024: the Attorney General of the state of Texas sued Aylo/Pornhub for allegedly not obeying the state’s legal age verification law.[141][142][143] As of March 2024, Pornhub and other Aylo-owned websites have blocked access in Texas, due to the adoption of an age verification law which usually mandates age verification through the use of an identity document. In states where Pornhub is blocked, which also include Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, North Carolina, Utah, Virginia, Florida, Nebraska, Indiana, Kansas, Idaho, Kentucky, and Oklahoma; a message is displayed featuring pornstar Cherie DeVille criticizing such laws.[
You’re way off. In November 2024 iOS only made up 56% of the current market share. In October, android and iOS nearly achieved parity with one another.
Worldwide, Android holds 71% of the market share. I wonder if this will change if and when Chinese companies gain traction with their own alternative OS’s, though.
All the iPhone users can afford OnlyFans.
jokes aside it’s probably because of US states banning porn sites, and Apple makes up for like 80% of US phones
Yeah, except the states dumb enough to ban porn only have like 1% of the US population.

Where are you getting 12 from? I’m seeing 8.
You’re correct, though. As far as I can tell, nearly a quarter of all Americans are geographically blocked from Pornhub (unless they use a VPN).

Emphasis mine:
Maybe those guys watched a lot of porn last year?
I ran this through an AI, so take it with a grain of salt… But the percentage is actually, ostensibly, 24.6%.
That’s more then enough to explain the descrepencies in the data.
Edit: The work ChatGPT showed, in case this is wrong.
Texas: 30.5 million
Florida: 22.6 million
Virginia: 8.7 million
Indiana: 6.8 million
Louisiana: 4.6 million
Mississippi: 2.9 million
Arkansas: 3.0 million
Utah: 3.4 million
Total population = 82.5 million
The total U.S. population is approximately 335 million.

How? Id imagine they broke after purchasing their $900 monitor stand
Or iphone users are only a small percentage of phone users?
This graph isn’t US-centric and Android is a lot more popular in the world. The US is the skewed one here.
