North Carolina's controversial LGBT law appears to have cost the state's residents at least some access to porn.

The online sex site XHamster said it is blocking all IP addresses registered to computers in North Carolina in response to the law.

"We will not stand by and pump revenue into a system that promotes this type of garbage," the adult site said in a statement. "We respect all sexualities and embrace them."

A spokesman for the website said North Carolina residents trying to access the site will only see a black screen. That eventually will be replaced with a petition to repeal the law, spokesperson Mike Kulich said.

Kulich told Huffington Post the site last month had 400,000 hits for the term "transsexual" and 319,907 for "gay" from North Carolina alone.

"Judging by the stats of what you North Carolinians watch, we feel this punishment is a severe one," he added.

The porn site move is just the latest backlash over the legislation signed by Gov. Pat McCrory last month. The measure limits legal protections for LGBT people at commercial establishments such as hotels, shops and restaurants and also restricts which bathrooms transgender people can use.

So far, PayPal has cancelled a $3.6 million expansion in North Carolina, Bruce Springsteen and Bryan Adams have cancelled shows and several Hollywood studios have called for a ban on filming in the state.
