A few weeks ago Pornhub released analytics of their website and showed the Philippines spent the most time at their website at an average of 12:45 minutes. Earlier this week, news came out of the Philippines that their favorite tube sites are now being blocked.

As part of a crackdown on child pornography, Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte has banned a number of x-rated websites including xvideo, redtube, and xnxx. Since Saturday visitors of the adult pages are greeted by this message “This website has been ordered blocked under authority of the Philippine government pursuant to Republic Act 9775 or the Anti-Child Pornography Law.”

Secretary Martin Andanar said “these porn sites should really be banned because they are being used by pedophiles and other people who subscribe to child pornography sites.”

“We don’t want our youth and even the adults to be addicted to lewd videos shown in the internet,” Andanar also said on behalf of President Duterte.
