Good job. What I have found useful lately is contemplation. I would sit down for 30 min every morning and contemplate about porn. Without any judgement or preconceived ideas about porn, I would question it with a blank slate like a child who knows nothing.
Throw all your ideas about how "bad" porn is outa the window and I wouldn't bother spending too much time reading new material about it. You already know that stuff.
Instead, try to increase your awareness/consciousness about this activity your engaging in and really understand why you are doing. What are th we pixels on a screen? Why does my mind generate feelings of arousal even though I know this is not real. Look at the bigger picture ... Is porn really bad in the absolute sense or is it just bad relative to you? Ask questions and journal your ideas, see what you come up with.
This technique has worked wonders for me so far.. being a porn addict for nearly all my life I have found this one to be the most powerful. Willpower never works (especially for me)
Hope that helps
Edit: Also try to adopt multiple perspectives such as being a porn actor, or the the CEO of the business. How do they percieve porn?
