Off Topic Pornhub Just Deleted Seven Million Videos Of Unverified Content

[JustinGamerXR]

More than half of the site's videos have been removed after a report revealed how much content featured sexual abuse and/or minors.


Pornhub, the world’s largest porn website, has deleted more than seven million videos from its website as part of a new ban on unverified content.
Videos taken down from the website appear to represent more than half of Pornhub’s content, with just under 5 million videos currently listed on the site compared with the 13.5 million that Motherboard reports were available over the weekend.
The move comes following a report published by The New York Times earlier this month, which found that Pornhub was hosting content depicting sexual abuse and involving minors




With 3.5 billion views per month, Pornhub is estimated to be the 10th most visited website in the world. However, according to outlet, by failing to properly moderate its content the site effectively ‘monetizes child rapes, revenge pornography, spy cam videos of women showering, racist and misogynist content’.
Following the article, Mastercard and VISA both announced they would no longer accept payments through the site, pending an investigation into whether the site was hosting illegal content.
In a blog post, a Pornhub spokesperson wrote:

As part of our policy to ban unverified uploaders, we have now also suspended all previously uploaded content that was not created by content partners or members of the Model Program.
This means every piece of Pornhub content is from verified uploaders, a requirement that platforms like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat and Twitter have yet to institute…
In today’s world, all social media platforms share the responsibility to combat illegal material. Solutions must be driven by real facts and real experts.
We hope we have demonstrated our dedication to leading by example.

he policy will also be implemented on other sites owned by MindGeek, which is the world’s largest pornography distribution company, The Verge reports. VISA had previously confirmed that it would block payments on all explicit content sites owned by the company.

The move comes after Pornhub announced last week that it would ban downloads and begin shifting to allow verified-only content. From now on, uploads will only be permitted from official partners or members of the site’s ‘Model Program’. According to Motherboard, previously uploaded unverified content has been removed ‘pending verification and review’ – a process set to begin next year. The current verification process requires users to submit a selfie of themselves holding a piece of paper with ‘pornhub.com’ written on it, with the site saying the process will be enhanced in 2021.

it is a real shame!

 

[Ares]

i preferred the amateur content more than the professional content

 

[JustinGamerXR]

I don’t know now about other sites like Xvideos, xhamster etc. but I feel like all porn platforms/sites are or will be under the same threat and criticisms as PH. they’ll eventually come for them all if we don’t fight

 

[Monkey Fonics]

Thank god I backed up my videos and images in a large folder. Fuck PornHub, fuck SJWs, and fuck jannies.

 

[Jon_Snow]

I mean XVideos were always better..

 

[YⓄDⒶ]

I use to have an account with more of 300 videos in PH and no one of that videos was content depicting sexual abuse and involving minors...Its a Shame

As I posted elsewhere:
THE SHEER FUCKING CHEEK WITH:
"This means every piece of Pornhub content is from verified uploaders, a requirement that platforms like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat and Twitter have yet to institute."

Trying to act all high and mighty about it. Pretending to ignore the stupidity and logistical nightmare of removing the postings of freaking memes on social media because the MILLIONS OF USERS didn't happen to verify the accounts.

All of that content will be back in a month. What does "verified" really mean? Can a girl just upload a picture of her obviously faked ID? Or have her suitcase pimp do it?

 

[chuchinegro]

Their verification system sucks and it will suck, this has already been demonstrated.
This will impact pornhub in the long run and it will only give the advantage to other sites (xhamster, xvideos, etc.), and even make bigger other platforms like Onlyfans.

PornHub has gone downhill with their amateur content.
Bump Thread

 

[RengokuTits]

Even porn sites are infected with SJW smdh..

 

[Freckledpink]

Will create our own site!!

 

[swampthing]

If they had kiddy porn on their site why aren't they just shut down and the site owners in jail?

 

[argy4bargy2]

I would assume amateur content was a lot more popular than professional one on PH, so this will definitely mean they will lose a lot due to this. I mean I support the fact that this will not allow people to upload minor porn, but deleting everything is just too much. With this they pretty much lost all their popularity... now other porn sites will become the ones people go to, not PH...
