Best VPN for Nebraska: Pornhub workarounds

As of today, residents in Nebraska will no longer be able to access the adult site Pornhub. Due to a recently passed age verification law designed to prevent minors from viewing adult content, Pornhub has begun blocking access to users in multiples states in protest and Nebraska is next on its list.

This is following a trend that has seen more than half a dozen states lose access to the incredibly popular NSFW site. A similar ban occurred in March of this year when access was blocked to residents in Texas and in June when Indiana, Idaho, and Kansas also lost the ability to visit the site. 

Not only is this inconvenient for age-appropriate Nebraskans who want to access the site, but it also infringes on First Amendment constitutional protections. Fortunately, there’s an easy workaround: using a VPN. Just download and install your preferred VPN, connect to a server in a state that isn’t blocked, and enjoy the content.

Below you’ll find my top picks for VPNs to access Pornhub if you’re in Nebraska where the site has blocked access. For even more great services, check out my list of the best VPNs overall.

ExpressVPN – Best overall

ExpressVPN is my overall top pick for VPN. It packs a ton of great features including wide-device support, ad- and tracker-blocking, and plenty of domestic and international servers.

It also boasts great speeds, meaning you won’t need to lower your video quality to something that makes it look like the important bits are blurred on purpose. ExpressVPN has one of the widest device support networks as well, so not only will you be able to access Pornhub, you’ll be able to view the content on any device you wish as well.

NordVPN – Runner-up

NordVPN is a close second to ExpressVPN, only losing out due to the fact that it isn’t as intuitive and can be a bit more expensive in the long-term. That doesn’t take anything away from how great this service is as well, though.

It’s consistently the fastest VPN I’ve ever tested, so you can stream in HD to your heart’s content. Plus, it comes with more built-in security features than ExpressVPN if you’re in need of something more than just privacy.

Mullvad – Best for privacy

Depending on what you’re looking for from a VPN, Mullvad might actually be your best option. Not only is it in our top five services for overall speed, it most importantly earns top marks for privacy.

Mullvad takes every effort it can to know as little about its users as possible. The service won’t ask for an email address or name and it even accepts payments via mailed cash if you want. And, it costs a mere $5 per month regardless of the plan you choose.

ProtonVPN – Best free VPN

While I don’t usually recommend that anyone use a free VPN due to their proven security and privacy risks on certain devices, ProtonVPN is an exception. This service from the well-known Swiss-based Proton brand, has a spotless track record for user privacy. It’s also satisfyingly free of ads.

Just like all free VPNs there are limitations though, but thankfully ProtonVPN keeps them relatively manageable. For no cost whatsoever you’ll get a one-device connection limit and access to five servers located in different countries around the world (including the U.S.). It doesn’t impose any speed or data limitations on these free servers as well—something that is nearly unheard of with other free VPNs.
