The lawyer for numerous Diddy accusers is firing back at Jay-Z and his team's allegations of misconduct ... calling their demand for sanctions against him "frivolous" -- and saying the star is just trying to intimidate his client and himself.

Tony Buzbee filed a response Friday to Jay-Z and his team's recent filing ... claiming their justification for having him sanctioned falls on tiny inconsistencies in a person's story from nearly 25 years ago -- when the "Jane Doe" was just a child.

Buzbee says that Jay's side is trying to use a simple dispute of facts as proof that his client's allegation of rape is all BS ... and, his threat against Buzbee himself is just another instance of "bullying."

Maitland Ward Good For Pornhub Pulling Outta FL Over New Law!!! But Decision Might Backfire

Pornhub will no longer be available in Florida ... a major response to a new state law requiring age verification to visit adult platforms -- and one porn star tells TMZ the stand is a double-edged sword.

Here's the deal ... Pornhub's parent company, Aylo, opted to block access to horny Floridians rather than comply with the law taking effect on Jan. 1, requiring a state ID be shared to prove that would-be lookers are 18.

INVASION OF PRIVACY
TMZ.com

Maitland Ward tells TMZ ... Pornhub is "not perfect" and could do more to ensure minors are not viewing the free site, but as she sees it -- Florida tracking people's porn habits is a slippery slope that'll make horndogs mighty uncomfortable.

Applauding Pornhub's stance, which is seen as standing for free speech, Maitland anticipates the decision will push more people to paid sites of stars and, of course, OnlyFans.

Still, MW points out that by pulling out of Florida, the popular Canadian-based site is alienating a huge population that might hold a grudge ... in only one of the four states where it is legal to film professional porn ... so the decision is a big deal.

SLIPPERY SLOPE

Paid sites require a credit card, so sharing an ID with that information does not seem as invasive ... but again -- PH is free, so uploading a driver's license is seen as going too far.

On Monday, the Free Speech Coalition filed a federal lawsuit against the state ... reportedly claiming the new law violates free speech rights and could put users' personal data at risk.
