What do The Boss and the porn site xHamster have in common? They both prefer pulling out of North Carolina rather than putting up with a recent law that discriminates against LGBT people
Taking a leaf out of the books of PayPal, Bryan Adams and Bruce Springsteen, the site has restricted access to its wares to people whose IP address is in North Carolina. That state's legislature recently passed a law which blocked any attempt to pass anti-discrimination rules, which would grant protections to gay and transgender people.
People from the southern state hoping to satisfy their urges by logging on to the world's 91st most visited site were instead urged to stop the homophobic insanity.
As the site points out, 491,925 North Carolinans have already looked up the 'SheMale' section on the site in 2016, while a further 48,585 have looked up the term in the search bar. 319, 907 have clicked into the 'Gay' category on the site, while 50,612 have typed 'gay' into the sites search engine.
