Beginning on June 30 of this year, residents in Georgia are going to lose access to the adult site Pornhub. Earlier this year the Georgia state legislature passed SB 351, which will require all public websites with “a substantial portion of material that is harmful to minors” to use an age-verification system—and porn sites fall under this category.
The law is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, and Pornhub’s parent company Aylo will begin restricting access to its adult sites for residents in Georgia in protest on June 30, 2025. Aylo and other privacy advocates claim that these laws not only violate free speech, but will infringe on personal privacy protections. By forcing individuals to hand over personally identifiable information to third parties, it creates the potential for government overreach and data misuse.
This is following a trend that has seen more than 19 states lose access to the incredibly popular NSFW site. Similar bans occurred throughout last year for residents in Texas and Florida, among others. Both Wyoming and South Dakota are also set to lose access beginning this July, with North Dakota following shortly thereafter.
For legal-age Georgians looking to access the site, this is disruptive to say the least. Fortunately, there’s an easy workaround: using a VPN. Simply download and install your preferred VPN, connect to a server in a state that isn’t blocked, and enjoy the content.
Below are my top picks for VPNs to access Pornhub (or other Aylo owned adult content) if you’re in Georgia where access will be blocked. And for even more great options, check out my list of the best VPNs overall.
NordVPN – Best overall
NordVPN is my overall top pick for VPNs. It comes with a ton of great features including wide device support, ad- and tracker-blocking, and plenty of domestic and international servers—with coverage in most U.S. states.
It also boasts the fastest connection speeds, meaning you won’t need to lower your video quality to a resolution that makes it look like the important bits are blurred on purpose. NordVPN has one of the widest platform support networks as well, so you’ll be able to view content no matter the device.
ExpressVPN – Runner-up
ExpressVPN is a close second to NordVPN, only losing out due to the fact that it isn’t quite as fast and comes with a few less extra features. Those are just minor issues, though, and shouldn’t take away from ExpressVPN still being one of the best VPN services on the market.
It also consistently has great speeds, so you can stream in HD to your heart’s content. Plus, it works with nearly every device and has one of the best user-privacy records around.
Mullvad – Best for privacy
Depending on what you’re looking for from a VPN, Mullvad might actually be your best option. Not only is it in my top five services for overall speed, it’s among the best for privacy.
Mullvad takes every effort to know as little about you as possible. The service won’t ask for an email address or name and you can even send cash payment if you prefer. Plus, it costs a mere $5 per month regardless of the plan you choose.
Proton VPN – Best free VPN
While I don’t usually recommend that anyone use a free VPN due to their proven security and privacy risks, Proton VPN is one of the exceptions. This service from the well-known Swiss-based Proton brand has a spotless track record for user privacy. It’s also ad-free.
Just like all free VPNs, there are limitations, but thankfully Proton VPN keeps them relatively manageable. For no cost whatsoever you’ll get a one-device connection limit and access to five servers located in different countries around the world (including the U.S.). There are no speed or data limitations on these free servers either—something that’s not typical of other free VPNs.
