Context: Donald Trump's Election Win Could Lead to Porn Being Banned
Will Trump (or his government) take actions to ban or restrict porn consumption in the US?
If Iโm not able to view pornhub.com (or another leading porn site of the day, if PH goes down ๐) as an anonymous internet denizen with a US IP address nationwide, this Resolves YES.
Any actions taken by individual states here will not count.
An incomplete list of things that would count for a YES resolution (please suggest more in the comments):
Requiring IDs to view pornographic content.
Requiring business to get government confirmation/approval to show explicit content (a supply-side restriction).
Banning internet pornography
1,000"Donald Trump's electoral win could lead to porn being banned in the United States, as it is a key agenda item in Project 2025."
oh
The sweepstakes market for this question has been resolved to partial as we are shutting down sweepstakes. Please read the full announcement here. The mana market will continue as usual.
Only markets closing before March 3rd will be left open for trading and will be resolved as usual.
Users will be able to cashout or donate their entire sweepcash balance, regardless of whether it has been won in a sweepstakes or not, by March 28th (for amounts above our minimum threshold of $25).
I'm pretty bullish on Trump implementing most of what's in Project 2025 compared to Manifold, but I have my doubts on this one for the following reasons:
- I doubt Trump is particularly committed to this issue.
- The Republican House majority is likely to be tiny (1-3 seats), meaning this is unlikely to pass Congress and would have to be implemented through executive action.
I suppose it's possible someone slips Trump an executive order doing this and he signs it, or maybe R House members are more unified than I think they will be, but seems unlikely overall.
