It's the second one. I saw article where they talked how Florida was the first to pass it, pornhub put time and money into developing what they needed to comply and saw a 90% decrease in traffic because nobody wants to hand over their ID for free porn.

    After MindGeek started complying with the Louisiana law earlier this year, the company said traffic dropped by 80 percent.

    It’s literally in the linked article lol
