The power of the NY Times and free press.

[nikki99]

free press is good

[cordoba]

I know a lot of you will be happy to see Pornhub go down and perhaps the end of user submitted content on tubes, but the crazies who have been campaigning for this wont stop with Pornhub, or even porn. They even want sex dolls banned. They wont stop until masturbation itself is banned.

Credit card company Visa is looking into allegations that Montreal-owned company PornHub posted pornographic videos featuring children or rape.


These two credit card companies will therefore contact MindGeek, the parent company of PornHub, to verify whether the company is responsible for any illegal acts.

"If the site is known to have failed to comply with the laws or policies of financial institutions or the underlying standards, they will no longer be able to accept payments with Visa," Visa said in a statement to The New York Times ".

For its part, MasterCard has not gone through all the stops to warn that its business relationship with PornHub and MindGeek is in jeopardy. "If the allegations are confirmed, we will act immediately," MasterCard said in a statement to the New York daily. When we identify illegal activity, our policy is to call for the termination of the relationship, unless an effective compliance plan is in place. "

PornHub has been in a storm since the New York Times published a text last week that illustrated how easy it is to access child pornography on this adult entertainment site.


The Liberal Party of Quebec even asked the Legault and Trudeau governments to tighten the screws on PornHub.

For its part, the Montreal-based company reiterated last week that it works hard to detect and then remove offensive content.

Many victims believe that the way PornHub works is why it is so difficult to control what is broadcast.

Because like YouTube, users of this XXX site can post videos themselves. But, they can also upload videos they like directly to the site.

In short, even when a video is deleted because it is deemed inappropriate, it can quickly be put back online by another user.

According to SimilarWeb, PornHub is the 10th most viewed website in the world, ahead of giants like Amazon and Netflix.

Yup. The left is much more dangerous to porn than the Bush administration was. Bureaucrats shaking their fists are nothing compared to SJWs because the SJWs always try to one up one another. They'll all start to pile onto Visa and Mastercard.

"Mastercard Inc said on Sunday it was investigating allegations against Pornhub.com following a newspaper column which said many videos posted on the adult website depicted child abuse."

Why are rightards trying to politicize this?

Because the guy who wrote the article is a sjw libtard. The article is BS

Credit card company Visa is looking into allegations that Montreal-owned company PornHub posted pornographic videos featuring children or rape.

It was just a sensational virtue signaling article from shitlib HQ over at the NY Times.

Like Mindgeek, a huge corporation, is posting CP. Get real.

It's also very left leaning with an agenda.

Mindgeek is one of the few remaining private employers in Montreal.
Only jobs left will be something quelquechose socialiste avec le liberal partouze.

But yeah, let them take down the biggest porn site by far with a few tweets and letters to legislators. Nothing to see here, we're all safe.

[TrafficTitan]

This will probably blow over, but the important thing is to not overreact. Looks like Pornhub already did though. If you start to kowtow to their demands like a bitch it'll never stop, they'll just keep asking for more until you're dead.

This is perfect example of someone being picked on because they are an industry leader

PornHub are the good guys in white hats compared to many tube sites

They actually do their best to police and prevent exploitive content from appearing on their site. I personally had some of my step themed stories flagged and after they reviewed them, they were allowed to stay on their site.

I can think of several paysites that trick VISA and Mastercard by putting up a tame version of their sites when they go for review then put things like scat, blood, and what appears to be rape after they are approved. PornHub would never allow this type of content

Even tags like blackmail, young girl and forced are banned by PornHub now

I get interviewed by the main media very frequently and tell them what I writing here now, it is not the big brands like PornHub that are the enemy, it is people and sites that are right under your noses, yet you miss them because you are going after the easiest target.

Agree, When you make it to the top you switch to cover your ass mode. There is much worse on other sites, that don't deal directly with payment processing.

Good guys don’t allow stolen content. Pornhub are not “the good guys.”

So what should a government do to ensure the laws are followed?

Nothing and allow illegal videos displaying kids being abused and raped and people being victimized or enforce the law? So you can scrape a few dollars of income from the practice.

No government has ever managed to ban porn they can only adjust the levels to which what can legally be sold. Even then an entire switch in the way the internet and country are run has to take place before they can control the internet. Like N. Korea which means switching it off.

No site is a good guy when they allow users to submit.

I'm amazed at the shock and disgust about someone trying to bring down Tubes, they've destroyed a once-thriving industry and everyone's incomes except for a few top dogs. The first person to launch a porn Tube, JT, admits freely he knew what it meant for the industry.

Just the other day I found several full scenes from our site on PH. That was bad enough, but what really raised my eyebrows was that it was attributed to no uploader. Not even 'known'. There literally was no user info data that's usually shown with the clip. After looking at more random full Japanese adult video uploads, I saw a similar trend of zero data shown. Who placed these on the site? Random users or those within the company scraping torrents?

PH has done a good job white-washing its image and overall, I consider them one of the better tubes, but they're not exactly an entity a paysite can consider a friend.

I agree with this. It's a follow the money type of situation with ad networks being the biggest enablers of adult piracy. Most of these 'user submitted content sites' cannot get processing so they need to find other ways to stay afloat.

Anyone who operates a paysite and thinks Pornhub, XVideos, XHamster, et al . are friends, is like the cuck who think the guy banging his wife every day is ok.

If a user on PH receives I believe 2 or 3 DMCA's to content on their account, it's removed (the account), but not all other content is removed. Then it just shows blank user data for those other uploads.

This is bigger than Adult, it;s time the big tubes have to obey new laws. https://www.article13.org/best-of

Look at profit made and ask yourself can a big tube afford to better monitor what it publishes. Of course, if they have too many uploads and can't monitor them, the best thing is to accept only what they can monitor.

Exactly!!!

[SleepWalker]

Looks like it's now official for MasterCard! Radio-Canada just announced it.

Now that MC did it, you bet Visa will follow.

Obviously, any bank they are doing biz with will be under strong pressure to kick them out as well. I don't see how they will be able to keep any bank account in Canada or USA.

Seems like it’s just pornhub, like this decision was just about them and not the industry or even the tubesite model

I didn't know that. Thanks for for filling me in.
You'd think they'd just wipe the entire account when that happens though.

Honestly it's amazing that it went on for as long as it had.

As the press is very connected with the woke left these days there could be a very intense witch hunt precipitated by this.

This story is taking me back to the late 90s early 2000s. Ouch.

Because this is the thin end of the wedge. They picked on the industry leader because it's kind of decapitating the adult industry. Hilarious, or maybe tragic, seeing so many porn webmasters gloating over their demise. If they can take down Pornhub, they can take down the entire industry. That's certainly their aim.
