All the news over net neutrality is wonky, jargon-heavy, and — if we’re honest — reports about the impending changes leave readers with more questions than answers.

But there’s one taboo topic that really puts things into perspective: pornography.

The Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) decision Thursday to repeal the Obama-era net neutrality rules, which barred internet service providers (ISPs) like Verizon and Comcast from giving preferential treatment to some content over others, could drastically impact America’s jaw-dropping porn consumption.

In 2016 alone, Pornhub viewers watched 4,599,000,000 hours — which equates to 5,246 centuries — of pornography, according to the website’s data. Viewers also used 3,110 petabytes of bandwidth, most of which was consumed freely.

But all that could really change without net neutrality in place, as Mashable reported.

Moving forward, ISPs will be able to control what consumers have access to, which could put an end to — or at least severely slow down — the free availability of copious amounts of pornography.

Porn, it should be noted, is certainly not in jeopardy of disappearing. Instead, the undoing of net neutrality could just make accessing smut more expensive — especially for the millions of Americans who have never paid a dime for it — because ISPs will now have the option of charging users large sums of money in order to stream the explicit content.
