Is this just the Texas variant, or every one?

Pornhub is complying with the Louisiana law. In Louisiana, the state has digitized IDs that make veryifying your age online for this law very convenient.

In the other states, they are using this law to effectively outlaw pornography. For everyone. Especially the Texas law.

IP leak test indicates my vpn is working.

I need to investigate further.

Remembered I had enabled split tunneling. Added my browser to the covered programs. Now the sites tell me "ACCESS DENIED!!! NO BOTS! NO VPN!" In big yellow text on a black screen. 😂
