The more direct link is the reporting that hit PornHub and there is plenty of info on these religious / 'moral crusader' groups.

The NyTimes link below is opinion but it lays out facts and puts in the context of OF decision. It talks about the original nytimes PornHub op-ed by Kristof and his connections to anti-sex religious groups.

I think the rhetoric these groups use is very similar to the CP-as-an-excuse, but their goal ism't simply to remove illegal content (which everyone agrees is bad). It's to curb porn and sex work in general.

Opinion pieces can be framed to dictate whatever narrative the author wishes to promote, and a nice story isn't substitute for evidence.

The original PH article was opinion as well. There are a ton of sources if you care to google, i included the recent NyTimes piece because it does list specific sources.
