What a disappointment! Watching the Netflix documentary on Pornhub, I expected a sharp indictment of this porn giant’s disgusting gaffes.
Instead we are treated to a smug film that seems to seriously downplay the cases of sexual exploitation. It’s downright naughty!
CRIME SCENE
Yesterday I watched Money Shot: the Pornhub story.
I was particularly interested because Mindgeek (which owns Pornhub) is a Canadian company based on Décarie Boulevard. (Just last week, Mindgeek was sold to an Ontario mutual fund).
You will recall that in December 2020, the New York Times ran a devastating dossier by Nicholas Kristof entitled The children of Pornhub. He accused Pornhub of broadcasting rape videos, child pornography and revenge porn with statements of support.
This report had lifted my heart and made my blood run cold. After the shock file aired, Ottawa lawmakers questioned Pornhub officials, and credit card companies suspended payments on the site.
Can you believe the Netflix documentary spends more time giving a voice to porn actors who have suffered economically from Visa and Mastercard withdrawals than it does talking about the victims of rape, child porn and revenge porn?
I screamed in my living room! Oh come on! We are treated to lengthy interviews with porn actresses lamenting the loss of their livelihoods…
I find it very sad that a girl with big tits who puts dildos in all her orifices has less money for her RRSPs, but I won’t cry over her fate!
You can’t equate “sex workers,” “victims of financial loss,” and 14-year-old girls who were raped, filmed, and whose rape video made Pornhub thousands of dollars!
There are people who find porn “obnoxious”. What I personally find indecent is that Netflix presents us consensual adults who knowingly practice the profession as poor victims who don’t seem to care about the harm being done to children.
misery ! There’s a reason why Pornhub’s disgusting mistakes have been denounced: because they turned a blind eye to the sexual exploitation of minors!
WHO BENEFITS FROM CRIME?
By allowing anyone to post content without verifying the validity of the videos or the identities of the broadcasters, Pornhub has helped destroy the lives of victims of rape and sex trafficking.
Pornhub only had 30 moderators (compared to 15,000 on Facebook). Thousands of people have asked Pornhub to remove the videos of their attack. The company hesitated.
“Having a sex site and not having a control system is like having a fireworks company that doesn’t have a smoking policy,” denounced one participant.
Another says, “Pornhub isn’t a porn site, it’s a crime scene.”
I wish the Netflix documentary had spent more time on this criminal site than on porn performers’ complaints.
