Why Can't I Access Adult Sites on My iPad?
Asked by

I'm having a frustrating issue trying to access adult websites on my iPad. I'm running iPadOS 18.5, and I'm sure there's no update needed right now. Importantly, these sites aren't blocked in my country, and I can access them just fine on my phone and PC. I usually browse using Opera GX without any problems, but the issue occurs specifically on my iPad. When I try to load a site like "de.pornhub.org", it stops loading at a certain point and gives me a 'This site can't be reached. The request timed out' message. I have Safe Search turned off and my settings don't seem to block anything. My internet connection is solid; it was just upgraded, and I've cleared all cookies, site data, and cached files. I've also tried using Safari and Google Chrome but faced the same loading issue. Can anyone help me figure this out?

You could try resetting your network settings completely and then reconfiguring them. Sometimes that helps with connection issues on certain sites.

If you haven’t already, check if there’s a VPN or security app interfering with your connection. Some of them can block sites due to their content.

Honestly, maybe it’s a good thing you can’t access those sites. Sometimes it’s healthier to stay away from them. Just saying!

Have you checked if your iPad model is up to date? Since you mentioned it’s the 10th Gen, that should be fine. If everything’s updated, try doing a network reset in your settings; sometimes connection issues can be resolved that way.

It could also be related to privacy settings or network filters. You might want to look into browser settings or try a different network to see if it changes anything.
