IANAL but I believe the board can be held criminally liable in this situation, meaning they could serve jail time. I've, admittedly, only skimmed some articles, but I believe the issue is that PornHub (mindgeek) knowingly hosted child porn and even after Visa was made aware, continued to do business with them. I could be wrong though.
- sandworm101 4y agoThe danger too is a bit of the Streisand effect was ongoing. Footage that was taken down became more popular when re-uploaded. From the outside, it looked like Mindgeek was not implementing industry-standard protocols to prevent repeated uploads. And they were pulling "windfall" profits from those re-uploads. The situation looked too similar to the "Girls Gone Wild" and later fiascos involving non-professional pornographic content.
