Canadians propose banning PornHub to challenge U.S. access

gizmodo.com

Canada and the U.S. are in a trade dispute, with new suggestions emerging to give Canada an advantage. One idea is for Canada to ignore U.S. intellectual property laws and create its own app stores, offering lower fees for transactions. Another suggestion, which gained attention from a comedian, is to ban PornHub, a Montreal-based site popular with American users. This idea has sparked discussions but is seen as more humorous than practical. As tensions rise, the situation remains fluid, with potential tariffs from the U.S. set to take effect soon. The outcome of these trade negotiations is uncertain.
