Circumvent JFF identity theft scheme

[FLFunSized]

So apparently JFF has turned off access to customers in Florida, blaming a new law that other sites are able to deal with. Has anyone found a way to get around this? And no…I’m not leaving Florida

Use a VPN

You'd only need to leave Florida virtually.

I'm assuming the issue is legislation intended to protect the "innocent children" from accessing porn sites. Some sites don't even want to bother with the age verification protocols, so they just block all traffic from the jurisdiction.

Among other things, your IP address identifies your location, including your state; otherwise, the site you're accessing wouldn't know you were in Florida.

Get a VPN program (paid or free) and use it to mask your actual location, making the site you want to visit see your connection coming from New York, or California, or some other state not enacting your problem-causing legislation.

That's part of the stupidity of such legislation, that's it's so easy to bypass. And if I know how to do it, I'm sure any kid over 12 knows how, too.
