I feel like porn moderation is a more trivially binary choice: Legal vs. illegal, in a way that is crisp, clear, and clearly legislated.
Whereas what about weird videos that try to sell products to kids under the age of 5? What about anti-semites? What about subtle racism (Is that even something we want to moderate?) What about bullying?
The moderation space, and connectivity between peers, is orders of magnitude larger on youtube. Hours of content controlled for.

I wonder if this is just a case where the media reports about racist content on YouTube or Facebook, but not on porn websites, so comparatively it looks like porn sites are doing a great job moderating.
- Brian_K_White 7y agoI think that was their point. Xhampster only has a relatively few and relatively easily identified and relatively clearly defined things to look for, compared to youtube and faceebook and others, which have a universe of nebulous things to try to identify. xhampster (probably) doesn't even try to figure out if something is subtly antisemetic or anything like that. If it doesn't have kids or an actual not-faked death in it, then it's ok.
