I can't tell if it's Texas or Porn sites that are supposed to be the gangster in this metaphor.

> so I don't know why we are acting so naive about Texas and co.

It's a bad metaphor. I'm just saying they don't have to directly say what it is they want these sites to do to coerce them to do it.

They want them to stop letting kids in their state have access to their porn. It's up to Pornhub how to implement that and Pornhub decided to block all of Texas.

This seems like a reasonable ask and a reasonable response to me, so I don't understand who the bad guy is supposed to be here.
