In 2016, victims started to get in touch with Pornhub to have their videos removed, the suit said. He ordered GirlsDoPorn’s founder Pratt, his business partner Wolfe, and porn actor Garcia to hand over all images, videos, likenesses, and copyrights and to take “active steps” to remove them from circulation. These women were reportedly trafficked by the amateur porn production company, “GirlsDoPorn,” many of whom were outright tricked, forced, and coerced into shooting sex on tape and then lied to about where the footage would end up. Most were told the video production would take around 30 minutes, when in reality, they typically lasted for several hours.
Hosting child sexual abuse material of child sex trafficking victims
And if you consider the abuse that is rife within the pornography industry, then really it is better to not increase demand for this material by consuming it. A Canadian X account, @EyeDeco, targeted Serena, who, having discovered videos of herself being abused as an underage teenager on Pornhub, came forward to Mickelwait. This account posted old Instagram images of Serena in an attempt to shame her.
Pornhub’s growing legal problems
He also falsely assured at least two women that their videos wouldn’t be posted online after knowing other women’s videos had already been uploaded to the Internet, the plea agreement states. A former employee of San Diego-based GirlsDoPorn.com who appeared in more than 70 of the website’s videos pleaded guilty Thursday to a federal conspiracy charge. “This defendant lured one victim after another with fake modeling ads, false promises, and deceptive front companies, ultimately devolving to threats to coerce these women into making sex videos,” said Acting US Attorney Randy Grossman in a statement issued at the time of his conviction. They were allegedly told that the job would be anonymous and that their videos would not be posted on the web but were being made for DVDs of private collectors or far-flung markets.
- Girls Do Porn was a federally-convicted sex trafficking ring that coerced young women into filming pornographic videos under the pretense of “modeling” gigs.
- When people in the UK have searched for any of the terms on Pornhub’s list, the warning message and chatbot have appeared.
- Over the years, MindGeek amassed a small army of failing sites to create their own online porn empire.
- The plaintiffs are 61 more unnamed “Jane Doe” victims of Girls Do Porn, adding to the 60 that sued Pornhub in 2020 for similar claims.
But what people are not aware of is how internet porn is linked to human trafficking as well as worsening of mental health in individuals. To start off with human trafficking, internet porn has given the illusion that all the videos are consensual and no one was hurt in the process. Pornhub has been aware of the human trafficking that goes on with its website and has for years.
The problem is from a legal standpoint, 17 and 364 days, is not allowed. Pornhub may have removed upload and download powers from unverified accounts, but there have been issues with verified accounts too. “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,” a statement from the site reads.

However, it refused to remove all of the unverified content uploaded before the new policy change. Victims of Pornhub often describe the widespread dissemination of their rape and abuse as the “immortalization” of their trauma. Once the abuse is uploaded, these survivors are perpetually tormented by the fact that they could be fighting to remove their abuse from the internet for the rest of their lives. “Copyright is one of the few laws we’ve had during the first generation of the commercial internet where platforms had a business incentive to take down content and build out automated portals for making this a streamlined process,” Johnstone said. Holding businesses accountable motivates platforms to assign a registered DMCA agent with the Copyright Office to facilitate takedowns, Johnstone added, and copyright empowers the holder to subpoena a platform for information about the alleged infringer. Aylo said GirlsDoPorn provided the company with written consent forms purportedly signed by the women but that it was unaware the forms were obtained through fraud and coercion.
Most of the videos created as a part of the conspiracy were shot at hotels or short-term rental units in the San Diego area. If one of the victims agreed to act in the pornographic video, Garcia and his co-conspirators promptly booked flights to San Diego within a day or two to limit the chances that the victim would change her mind. After the victim arrived at the hotel or short-term rental unit, Garcia would continue to falsely assure them that the videos would not be posted online and that no one who knew the victims would see – or even know about – the videos.
And because it seems Pornhub will only consider removing videos when they are flagged, there are most likely traffickers earning money right now on the site. In our pornified culture, pornography disrupts how men interact with women. By better understanding the biological realities of our sexual development, we can cultivate healthier sexual perspectives and interpersonal relationships. This dynamic of you against the mob is what makes porn exploitation different from all other forms of sexual exploitation. Rose Kalemba was 14 when she was brutally raped by two men for 12 hours while a 3rd man filmed the incident. A few months later as she was scrolling online she found herself tagged in a link.
MindGeek’s defense against the lawsuit could cite Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which gives legal immunity to online platforms that host user-submitted content. But the lawsuit argues that the Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA) enacted in 2018 would override a Section 230 defense. The lawsuit was filed against Pornhub and Pornhub owner MindGeek in US District Court for the Southern District of California.
Aylo operates free and paid adult websites where content providers can post and distribute adult videos, with Aylo generating revenue through licensing agreements, advertisements and subscriptions. James Smith, head of the FBI’s New York office, said Aylo Holdings “knowingly enriched itself by turning a blind eye” to victims who told the company they had been deceived and coerced into the videos. The deal calls for the Montreal-based company to pay more than $1.8 million to the U.S. government, as well as make separate payments to the individual women harmed by the trafficking. It also requires appointment of an independent monitor for three years, after which the charges will be dismissed. The website was dedicated to revealing the true identities of the women appearing in those sex videos, “causing the victims to be subjected to severe harassment,” the DOJ said in a press release last year. Five years after he fled the country and minutes before his former right-hand man was sentenced in federal court, authorities announced that the alleged mastermind behind the GirlsDoPorn sex-trafficking ring had touched down in San Diego in federal custody.
