I found the article interesting too. Porn can be really exploitative for the performers, good for them that this is the perfect storm to not depend on anyone else anymore and make their own content. I’ve been thinking for a little while to do something around that industry, a tool to make it easier to get shit done and earn more money for the models/performers but I haven’t found what yet. I’d love to get in touch with people who produce this kind of content themselves to see what could be a useful product and do some research but I don’t personally know any. I have not succeeded so far because (I guess) I’m getting drowned into the constant stream of creeps that want their attention, my contact attempts receiving no answer. Any ideas how to approach this?

So you think it's great they don't have to depend on anyone else, but that they should still for some reason be interested in someone who, by your own admission, doesn't have a clue about "that industry" and has nothing at all to offer to "get shit done" (whatever that is supposed to mean)? And you're confused why these people already making lots of money by and for themselves aren't interested in yet another random guy selflessly offering to "help" them, and think it can only be the fault of "creeps" (people more likely to be supporting the performers, and not just looking to make money off their backs)?

  Why the harsh tone? There was nothing contradictory is his/her statement.

    > Why the harsh tone? It wasn't intended to be harsh, simply a case of 'come on dude, think about it'. These performers will be swamped by offers of "help" every day from people charitably wanting to get in on their act. The people who matter to the performers are the supporters/fans the poster (harshly) dismisses as "creeps". > There was nothing contradictory is his/her statement. Without wanting to repeat myself, their first sentence is about how great they think it is performers/models don't need anyone else, and the rest is annoyance and refusal to accept that that includes him/her.
