Porn sites have been there almost 20 years. Why it is problem right now? Is there extensive recent research about it? Or now we just have the capability?

I remember pop-up porn adds started to appears around 1995 or so and 1995 is 30 years away...

I ember them showing up and then being limited to super shady sites PDQ.

Which makes sense- since exposing minors to pornography was a crime, and got even more illegal somewhere in that time frame, along with the web becoming "professional" (whitehouse top level domain mixup stories anyone?), the honest pornography sites all started self-regulating and asking if somebody is an adult before anything naughty gets shown.

Push from the different generation? Late boomers got very puritan with age, also see themselves as more moral, again with age.

Nope, not here. Perhaps you live in some totalitarian shithole where you lack privacy or haven't figured out how VPNs work.
