We were a little surprised at this: Utah has the highest rate of subscriptions to adult-content websites, at 5.47 per 1000 households. (This was in Discover Magazine, from a paper in the Journal of Economic Perspectives.)
Utah? We thought Utah was the state of clean living and all that. We wonder why. Could it be all those large families? The absence of other diversions? This could be an economic opportunity for the Mormon Church.
We were a little surprised that Montana has the lowest rate, at 1.92 per 1000 households, roughly a third that of Utah. But then maybe a lot of folks in Montana don't have broadband yet, and porn without broadband is hardly worth it.
We were completely unsurprised, however, at a report that 36% of internet users visit at least one adult web site per month. We wonder what percentage of the web is taken up with porn. (And no, we're not going to go try to find out.)

Religion can get people wanting to look at porn. The crucifixion is kind of pornographic.
