I worked for a porn website many moons ago. > But the adult websites/gambling, their app and website keeps working and I've not heard of major data breaches, downtimes or payment failures compared to the startups in other industries. That is not quite right. It's just not publicly announced. Not many people would complain on twitter that something is not working. I remember when I was monitoring our systems I saw that there were at any time 2 maybe 3 "hackers" trying to find exploits in our code from the outside. You can also buy a lot of personal data from porn and gambling websites through certain channels. But overall: the adult entertainment business is a tough one. It was back in the day quite interesting for me to work on a high scaled business. we delivered our own ads - who gets the opportunity to work on something that needs to deliver 1M impressions per hour at 20 yrs? Some more perks were included, that were quite nice like remote working but for full payment. I lived on a finca on Majorca, Spain. With the paycheck of a regular contractor in Germany. I cannot say that there was a lot of talent working in the space. Our payment provider was sometimes down for several hours because unchecked/untested deployments, but we had to use them because they had old contracts with credit card companies before they made it hard for adult websites to collect payments.
