Pornhub has begun blocking visitors from Texas, where the authorities are attempting to enforce a new law requiring web porn platforms to check viewer ages. The company called the law "ineffective, haphazard, and dangerous." Since Pornhub pulled out, Texans have greatly increased Google searches for tools to mask the geographic location of their devices. We've been here before—with age-check laws, attempts to get around them, and porn platforms cutting off access. In fact, Texas is the seventh state that adult content platforms run by the Canadian company Aylo (formerly MindGeek) have left over age verification requirements. As a result, residents...

All of the sites in Aylo's network, including Pornhub, YouPorn, and Brazzers, are blocked in Texas, their homepages replaced with a message about the company's rejection of age verification laws…

In 2022, The Daily Wire released the documentary What is a Woman? The film featured conservative commentator Matt Walsh exploring the titular question through a combination of interviews and on-the-ground reporting, and the results were typically triggering for transgender activists outraged by the film’s success. According to X (formerly Twitter), the documentary accumulated 177 million views on the platform within a week—which, even when adjusting for shoddy metrics, makes it one of the most successful documentaries of all time. Walsh’s film could only skim the surface of the transgender debate. A 2023 Pornhub press release noted that “transgender” is now...

The high-profile criminal defence lawyer, firearms advocate and ordained rabbi plans to make the world's largest porn site a force for good. Solomon Friedman is not someone readily defined: He’s a defence lawyer and an organ donor; a firearms advocate and an ordained rabbi; an investor, philanthropist, and pornography magnate. Born into an Orthodox family in west-end Ottawa, Friedman grew up in a household with nine siblings. His father, Barry, was a Nortel contractor and software developer whose work sprawled through the house. “I was raised in a house with more computers than kids,” Friedman says. “My first computer was...

North Carolinian lawmakers decided to require photo ID upon accessing a porn website online to confirm you are of the legal age of 18+. Pornhub declared this puts users privacy at risk and is unreasonable to want to have to show photo ID every time you want to watch porn.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a savvy financial move, internet sex-trafficking giant Pornhub has acquired the television network C-Span after realizing the Federal government was staffed by a bunch of totally depraved and sexually perverted weirdos. "This makes all the sense in the world," said company CEO Feras Antoon. "These senators, representatives, and staffers on Capitol Hill are exactly who we look for in, uh, talent. Without exaggeration, Washington is chock-full of narcissistic, sociopathic degenerates who would do anything in front of a camera to get attention." Mr. Antoon went on to explain how the decision to acquire C-Span was made...

Children and straight men are being encouraged to explore “gay” and “transgender” sexual identities through “mainstream” pornography, staff members of the pornography giant Aylo, which owns Pornhub, said in undercover interviews.In the latest installment of a series of undercover videos released to social media by reporter Arden Young with investigative journalism outfit Sound Investigations, two top Aylo (formerly Mindgeek) employees said pornography has “educational elements to it,” can help children as young as 12 explore their sexual identity and gender, and that homosexual and transgender pornography is now being pushed to straight men to “convert” them.

On Thursday, New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez launched a major legal offensive in an attempt to address the online risks faced by minors. The lawsuit targeted Meta Platforms, Inc., its CEO Mark Zuckerberg, and associated entities such as Instagram, LLC and Facebook Holdings, LLC. This bold action seeks to prevent the exploitation of children on social media platforms. “Our investigation into Meta’s social media platforms demonstrates that they are not safe spaces for children but rather prime locations for predators to trade child pornography and solicit minors for sex,” Attorney General Torrez said in a statement. “As a career...

In response to a new law that requires porn sites to verify users’ ages, Pornhub has completely disabled its websites for people located in Utah. As of today, anyone accessing Pornhub from a Utah-based IP address doesn’t see the Pornhub homepage, but instead is met with a video of Cherie DeVille, adult performer and member of the Adult Performer Advocacy Committee, explaining that they won’t be able to visit the site.

A federal judge ruled Friday that Visa helped Pornhub “monetize child porn” and sex trafficking ....

Two top Pornhub executives have resigned after the adult website company was accused of hosting sexually explicit nonconsensual videos, including ones involving minors, for years. Pornhub-owner MindGeek said on Tuesday Chief Executive Officer Feras Antoon and Chief Operating Officer David Tassillo have resigned after more than a decade running the adult website company.

Pornhub asked a Birmingham federal judge on Wednesday to dismiss a lawsuit brought by an Alabama teen who claims she was raped and that the incident was posted to the adult website, claiming the company is immune to liability for what third parties post to the platform. MindGeek, Pornhub’s parent company, said it was entitled to so-called Section 230 immunity, which it said gives Internet companies “broad immunity from liability for content posted to its websites by third parties.”

Pornhub made money off countless videos that showed rape, women forced into porn and people who never OK’d their explicit encounters to be released, a fiery new lawsuit claims. Thirty-four women said they ended up on the porn website without their consent in videos that included sexual abuse and assault, so-called revenge porn or footage of them when they were minors, according to a federal lawsuit filed in California on Thursday. The company put profits over people and exploited victims of sex trafficking and sex crimes, the lawsuit alleges. “This is a case about rape, not pornography,” attorney Michael Bowe...

A former bookkeeper for the defunct San Diego-based website GirlsDoPorn.com, whose owners and operators have been charged in an alleged sex trafficking conspiracy, pleaded guilty Friday to a federal charge. Valorie Moser, 38, worked for GirlsDoPorn from 2015 to 2018, during which she served a number of administrative functions, including providing travel arrangements and transportation for models arriving in San Diego to appear in GirlsDoPorn videos. Moser's plea to a conspiracy charge came with admissions that she was aware the women were being falsely assured by the website's operators that the videos would not be uploaded onto the internet, and...

Leftist activists have already been pushing Mastercard, Visa, and others to expand their ban beyond illegal activities, with the eventual goal of demonetarizing opposing political views.Last week, Mastercard, Inc., announced new rules for banks processing credit card payments to pornography websites, designed to combat child pornography and sex trafficking. Unfortunately, for a country whose corporate overlords refuse (or are unable) to distinguish between intrinsic evil and prudential policy judgments, this promising development will likely also serve as a beta test to further attack conservative groups.In December, Mastercard and Visa banned the use of their credit cards on the Pornhub website...

A recent report from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children claims that Facebook had 20.3 million reported incidents of child sexual abuse material. In comparison, Pornhub’s parent company MindGeek had only 13,000 reports. Facebook accounted for 95 percent of the incidents in the report. The Daily Beast reports that according to new data from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children’s (NCMEC) CyberTipline, the vast majority of online child exploitation reports were linked to Facebook. The study found that over 20.3 million reported incidents related to child pornography or trafficking were linked to Facebook. In comparison to...

@HawleyMO@Mastercard has just informed me that they are terminating the use of their cards on Pornhub

Thailand has closed the worldwide sex site Porn Hub for violating the country’s Computer Crime Act. The move follows a warning last week from Deputy Prime Minister, Prawit Wongsuwan, that action would be taken against sites encouraging young people in Thailand towards ‘improper’ behaviour.

The Biden Family wants America to believe that they are the typical hard working American family, but nothing could be further from the truth. Joe Biden said his son Hunter had done “nothing but good things his whole life” per the Daily Mail in a report on Valentine’s day earlier this year:  Last month, Hunter Biden agreed to pay child support to an Arkansas woman, Lunden Roberts, who was a stripper at a Washington, DC, club that he frequented.  In November, DNA testing proved Biden, 49, as the father of Roberts’ child, after she filed a paternity suit in May 2019 in...
