Canada Considers Blocking Pornhub as Retaliation in Trade Dispute with U.S.
A comedian's viral suggestion to restrict U.S. access to the Canadian-owned adult site sparks discussion about its potential as a trade war tactic.
- Toronto comedian Matthew Puzhitsky proposed banning U.S. access to Pornhub, calling it Canada's 'nuclear weapon' in the trade war with the U.S.
- Pornhub, owned by Montreal-based Aylo, is the most visited adult website in the U.S., with over 5 billion monthly visits globally.
- A petition supporting the proposed ban has been launched but has yet to gain significant traction or official backing.
- Some Americans expressed disbelief and concern over the idea, while others noted that VPNs could circumvent such a ban.
- The suggestion comes as trade tensions between Canada and the U.S. continue, though formal negotiations are still ongoing.
