How would you feel if your underage daughter did not want to work in porn, but someone covertly recorded her having sex and uploaded it to pornhub? Because that's what was happening: mass unconsensual sharing of images, including images of children.

Google also indexes and returns results for websites that host not only illegal underage porn but terrorism websites, racist websites, etc. and profit from it but we give them a pass? You are making a “what about this??” argument and ignoring that they have mechanisms in place to remove illegal content which any website that allows user-generated content cannot control. My critique is more about the wide disapproval of the porn industry itself, which you can already see in the comments of this post, which I find both absurd and harmful to the vast majority of legitimate employees of this very popular and mainstream industry.

  Pornhub was widely damaging to the “the vast majority of legitimate employees“ in the industry. It built itself by stealing their work using the paper-thin ruse of “user-uploaded” videos, pushing down wages, working conditions and establishing itself as a quasi-monopoly player who could further set terms to its advantage and against sex worker and smaller companies. This has all been quite well documented. The conflation of puritanical objections to pornography with opposition to their regime of theft and worse is nothing other than a cynical maneuver meant to distract from the operation and consequences of their enterprise.

It was already happening 40 years ago with VHS cameras. I'd say that knowing that everyone in school saw you having sex it's worse. If the problem is "mass unconsensual sharing of images" social networks are a lot worse than any porn website. There are tens of unauthorized pictures of people faces and properties on social networks, not counting kid pictures. Does PornHub keeps a list of shadow profiles like FB does? I don't think so. If I was a parent my biggest issue would be the "not consensual" part of the story. Because it's rape.

Let's start at the beginning. Teenagers are secretly recording girls on there phones having sex with them. They use a phone and save the video. They share clips with friends on snapchat They send full length clips via google drive or other file sharing programs. A friend may upload to pornhub and random people can see. Under 200 videos in 3 years were found. You think by shutting down pornhub it stop this? Your daughter is safe? You are focusing on the least important part of the chain. If pornhub doesn't exist this is shared on xxxvideos or vk or someother service. If you really wanted to stop the problem you have to halt the chain of events earlier.
