"The "Anticorruption of Public Morals Act" proposes a total ban on porn in the state, and also targets the existence of trans people online, content like erotic ASMR, and selling VPNs in the state.

Platform operators that “knowingly distribute” any of the above content to anyone accessing it from Michigan would be guilty of a felony punishable by imprisonment up to 20 years or a fine of up to $100,000, or both. If the platform hosts more than “100 pieces” of the above, that escalates to 25 years and $125,000. On top of being a felony, hosting that content would open platforms and internet service providers up to civil fines of up to $500,000 for “each violation.”"
