|{{flagicon|Kiravia}} [[Kiravia]]|| {{maybe|Partial}} || {{yes|Legal}} || {{decriminalized|Decriminalised}} ||
The consumption and transmission of pornography are legal, but subject to an uneven patchwork of telecommunications standards, decency laws, postal regulations, and retail licencing laws. In many states, pornographic magazines, playing card decks, etc. are subject to an excise tax. A growing number of states have banned the sale of online pornography, and a federal ban is periodically proposed.<br>The commercial production of pornographic films is banned as a form of prostitution, but has been creatively decriminalised in a single state ([[Argévia]]) in a manner that has effectively created a regulated adult film industry there.
