Sure they did. The tribe representative they interviewed in the original nytimes article said they had minors watching porn, and only backpedaled afterwards in this article because it make them look bad. Minors sharing porn in group chats is insane enough, but that it only took a little exposure to the internet for a small remote tribe to start is even more telling.

  > and only backpedaled afterwards It's not clear if you're accusing the tribe or the reporter of backpedaling but neither happened. The reporter made a statement in the original article and repeated it verbatim in this article. It is closer to an opposite of backpedaling.

The source did mention sharing of porn in group chats, and being not thrilled about that. You're right the source didn't say they were addicted to porn, which is a far cry from what he reported. However, people tend to downplay porn viewing habits, as with anything that they are embarrassed about. It seems reasonable to think that if someone tells a reporter that he's upset that porn is being shared in group chats, that there's a good chance the level of usage is in fact greater.
