This is the thing entirely. So much of the NSFW content is abusive. The HN crowd is mostly safe from such attacks so this is a real blindspot.

- local_crmdgeon 4y agoThat's why I only use OnlyFans these days. The industry that produces free porn for pornhub etc is incredibly abusive. Disintermediation here removes a lot of scumbags
- AlecSchueler 4y agoProps to you for looking into more ethical means of consumption. It's a real tragedy that the taboo around sex prevents more meaningful discussions in public live about this stuff. Personally I got so sick of it all that I have up pornography completely about 4 years ago. I'm not saying everyone else should follow suit but I count it as the single best thing I ever did for myself, my mental health and my real life relationships.
- snapcaster 4y agoNow just go one step further and cut out the parasocial pathetic relationships with onlyfans creators and you'll be good!
- Der_Einzige 4y agoYes, tech bros are safe from others wanting them for anything outside of their minds.
- AlecSchueler 4y agoIndeed, the rates of revenge porn and AI deepfake targeted towards men is considerably lower than that against women.
- Dylan16807 4y agoI'd be more sympathetic to the abusive/revenge porn argument if these companies didn't keep applying the same rules to drawn images.
- AlecSchueler 4y agoWhy? Aren't you falling victim to false equivalency? One argument can be valid in certain cases but not in others.
- Dylan16807 4y agoIt's that I don't believe it's the motivation of these companies, even though that argument is valid in a vacuum.
- AlecSchueler 4y agoThat's true, broken clocks are sometimes right and all that.
