Pornhub is Canadian, not American (their HQ is Montreal). Of course PayPal is American and Pornhub has plenty of dealings with the US, so your point stands.

That doesn't necessarily make them, or their principals, immune to US civil or criminal sanctions.

I know, I said as much in my last sentence. I just meant it was less impactful on them than it is on PayPal. There is still some impact of course.
