Why not? Porn is what made the internet work.
People still pay for porn? Click on the wrong link and you have it for free with out looking for it.
POV, indeed.
Who could have imagined this outcome? /sarc
Porn is a driving force behind most tech innovations in the modern world. Streaming content, pay walls, video compression, online credit card processing, these were all in use by the porn industry for years before “legit” industry figured out what to do with them. If porn is finding a use for it that might actually mean the tech is working.
I don’t have an account but yesterday on the Cruz scandal twitter feed anyone can look at including kids, some crazy nasty filthy beast was posting anal sex shots for all to see.
You don’t have to look for porn. Some people post it for you.
Sometimes I hate the internet.
Can you create your own players, team? Are there playoffs? Is there fantasy betting? Sick!
Porn was a big factor in VHS beating Beta.
It’s the reason we will need remote-controlled cars.
If they come up with a title called “I’d Hit It”, we may lose Laz forever.
Yup. The entertainment industry is driven by it, though they never want to admit it.
"Go away, 'batin'."
Most unselected option: “Foreplay”.
Most selected option: “Mute”
Very much so.
Except for search engines, porn sites are the #1 websites on Earth and at least half of net traffic is porn.
Porn sales combined exceed all hollywood movies combined. Even though most people don’t pay for porn.
I know there’s no way to stop it but what did these porn producers expect would happen? Sex is the #1 human craving besides air/food/water. How could they not see millions of people becoming addicted to fake sex?
Now with VR it will be exponentially worse.
Sometimes just because you CAN make something, doesn’t mean you should...
Huxley predicted this in Brave New World - the feelies movies.
They did this in”Brainstorm” back in78. Think it was a Christopher Walken movie.

So true. When cave men first started to paint on rock walls, it was large breasted and big butt women.
Sculptors too.
Photography as well.
EVERY art form and technological advance debuted with porn.
In general it seems the first thing we figure out how to do with technology is kill or breed. One of my favorite tech stories is room refrigeration (AC), it got invented and then languished for a while as nobody could figure out what to do with it, then somebody said “we could take train cars, make them really cold, and ship meat to the front line of the Civil War and it would stay fresh for the whole journey.” Somehow nobody could put those ideas together without a war to support, being a desert dweller my mind boggles on how nobody could figure out what to do with AC.
