They've already come after me. They came with all guns blazing. I defended the entire adult entertainment industry online at a cost of tens of millions of dollars. I warned "them" that they were trying to take down the most legit company in the space, and that if they succeeded, there would be an explosion of child-porn.
"They" could not find a single thing wrong with me or my enterprise in the end. But the damage was done. My company was innocent but destroyed. Everyone in adult entertainment lost because of it. We have never recovered.
When I was doing it right, circa 1996-1999, we all enjoyed the most profitable phase in the history of our industry. When I got wrongly taken out, revenues for everyone plummeted and has never recovered.
But they couldn't find a single instance of us doing anything that they could prosecute.
So don't tell me about profiting from the rape of a 12 year old being defensible because that's the worst thing they could find. Pornhub's business model enabled this kind of thing to take place. They could have prevented it - we certainly did. We invented technology that is still in use to find and remove child porn almost the moment it had been uploaded (We called it "Cleanet" and that's still the standard).
Anyway, we shall see what happens, but if the allegations are true, then shame on everyone involved.
