You can map the availability of pornography to a rise in risky sex practices like choking. This isn't a problem inherent to pornography itself—rather, it's a factor of inadequate sex ed combined with the commonplace irresponsible presentation of certain sex acts in porn.

This is also true of Hollywood cinema, though; all media works this way, to a greater or lesser extent.
