PornHub Now Drawing Heat
PornHub is under investigation after years of running illegal porn, including videos of underage children being subjected to sexual intercourse and abuse. Here, Tim Pool meets with journalists from Sound Investigations, who have turned up the heat on PornHub.
Pornhub is one of the ten most trafficked websites in the world. It’s operated under the aegis of Aylo (formerly MindGeek), which owns nearly all of the pornography production companies and websites in North America. While the Canadian-based Pornhub is a powerful and wealthy international company, Sound Investigations pledges never to blink, or turn off their cameras.
Its probes have led to 26 state attorneys general demanding PornHub eradicate its depictions of child sexual abuse. There also have been two class action lawsuits, the most recent one filed Dec. 19 in Alabama’s Northern District Federal Court.
