Why download though? Tubesites abound. VPN’s are cheap af. Get cheap ass VPN, watch porn. Done. Even if the vpn is sleezy who cares, you just need it to show you are in a state that doens’t give a shit about those kinda laws (MA in the US doesn’t have those restrictions).

Also mentioned a hoard of times, yt-dlp works (just get the latest from github). Still, it’s porn. Unless it’s something ultra specific that you were looking for or something rare, just hit up a tube site.

as mentioned in another comment, yt-dlp works great. there are graphical versions of it that i haven’t used. i use it on linux but it has a windows version too. full discolosure, i haven’t used it to download videos in awhile, i mostly use it for music, so this info might be outdated.

the basic premise is you find the video you want to download, copy the URL, paste it into the yt-dlp program and it downloads the video.

there are a ridiculous amount of options however, the github might seem intimidating if you aren’t a programmer or very tech savvy. there are plenty of better written tutorials online. once you get it to work, it’s easy after that.

if you are in the U.S. try pornhub, xvideos, xnxx, xhamster or tblop. the ID requirements vary from state to state, so if the first 4 don’t work, keep trying off tblop until one is found. there’s also streaming archivers like archivebate and peachterbate.

one last thought, if you don’t have ublock origin, get it. if you have it, make sure to go into the options and check the all the ‘annoyances’ boxes. i think it removes the ‘we need a picture of your id’ messages on a few sites.

Use sites that don’t care about age laws. Plenty of niche ones out there.

But admitting you have a problem is the first step to recovery, proud of you.

A VPN would probably be your best bet, and watching porn is fine. Idk what the other dude is fussing about

As others have mentioned, video downloaders works. Personally, I would either use a VPN or proxy. I don’t have this problem in my state but when I traveled through Oklahoma I just used a VPN and it worked just fine.

The problem with downloading porn, I learned many moons ago before “tube” websites made it so accessible, is that unless you constantly hunt for new stuff it’s a waste of space as porn doesn’t have a ton of rewatch value (for me at least). So you amass a collection and then the collection gets boring after some watches/views.

If you happen to use a DNS-based ad blocking/security service such as NextDNS, ControlD, or whatever you can also often just have your DNS queries route out of another region. Doing that can get you around some regional stuff because you’ll get service URL’s and IP’s back from DNS for that other region, so you can skip the VPN and still get what you’re looking for. But that’s most useful for things like getting UK shows in your Netflix TV app. For your use case I would just VPN.

That said, if you’re set on downloading your porn, yt-dlp is the gold standard for ripping video off of the Internet. I haven’t tried it myself, but a cursory search seems to confirm that it’ll work with sites like PornHub (it’s apparently hit or miss depending on the site). You might still need a VPN for the content to not be blocked though.

A reputable VPN like Mullvad or Proton combined with youtube-dl can pull from some sites but it is pretty hit or miss.

Easiest level is using an online video downloader, search for a website that can download from the preferred video provider, paste the URL in the downloader page and download directly through the browser.

There are still sites out there that allow free downloads. Just make sure you have good antivirus protection and a VPN, and stick to only sites that you trust.

I am one of those people to recommend you not do that (I don’t watch that stuff anymore, as that just traumatized me).
