Sen Lankford accuses Pornhub of 'preying on children' in blistering letter
Friday, August 7, 2026
Sen. James Lankford sent a letter to Pornhub stating the company preys on children, in response to the site's campaign against state age verification laws. Lankford, an Oklahoma Republican, has previously supported legislation requiring age verification on adult websites. Pornhub has opposed such laws, arguing they create privacy risks for users. The letter was sent as multiple states have proposed or enacted age verification requirements for adult content platforms.
