A serious YouTube competitor that doesn't demonetize content doesn't have nearly as many advertisers.

At this time on-site only but I will gladly take your CV if that changes.

Very true. However, I need both a UI/UX designer for apps and a Visual Designer for marketing material. I believe we just called it Marketing Designer but you are correct that Visual is the proper title. Either way we are looking for a

I've done two AMAs on Reddit, there is some interesting stuff after you get through the top voted jokes. https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/4dmwry/we_are_the_por... and https://www.r

I have a Kiiroo Onyx on my desk right now and people keep touching the squishy inside part. (I work at Pornhub)

It appears to be not too difficult. Many people are interested in the quantity of data to work with.

Detecting what pornstars, actions, production and categories appear in 5mil+ adult videos.

Fair enough. I just wish it were true that users were deciding. All my research and data shows that the majority of users don't know how to whitelist a site or even that they have adblock installed. A friend told them to install it or

If we stop out of control tracking and the ads model, how do we stop all content from going behind a paywall? Asking because at least Eyeo makes an attempt at keeping the web free but uBlock Origin seems to go for a scorched earth approach

Not doubling costs but delivery photo and video does increase costs significantly. Something Stack Overflow doesn't have to do.

by brettz 10y ago
Maybe sites like Stack Overflow have 0 variable cost but this is more of an exception. The viable model is paywalls and that's where quality content will go. I don't see a big deal with that as I will gladly pay for content that I

So accurate. We had this exact discussion. Going to go with insecure warnings until we get https up shortly. For those wondering you can mask a normal text field in css input { -webkit-text-security: disc; }.

Yes, Pornhub uses a mix of JPEGmini and our own image optimization.

Those are common stigmas we face with the subscription service. We are trying to leverage our brand to make it as trustworthy as possible.

I can't disclose revenue numbers but Pornhub Premium gets a few thousand new active members a day.

by brettz 10y ago
We launched "Netflix like" Pornhub Premium last year. We license thousands of scenes from all the top producers. It's $9.99 a month with a free trial (real free trial, not the normal porn stuff where they charge you anyway).

Send me your CV if you find bypassing adblock with websockets is interesting!

Nah

How come?

by brettz 10y ago
You're implying that people will produce quality news content for free? Or that we will switch back to a paper based (or at least physical) product?

So you're saying there is no possible outcome where ad networks exist? Then you support a paid per consumption model in the future?

Have you ever gotten malware from an ad, pre-adblocking?

by brettz 11y ago
What would incentivize you to check which ad networks are clean?
59.
by brettz 11y ago
There are ad networks that do take positive steps to ensure that code is not harmful. Do you look into the ad networks you block and whitelist ones that are clean? Or do you rely on Eyeo/ABP by using their acceptable ads list while the

I'm looking into replacing GA Premium ever since Easylist blocked GA tracking for Adblocked users and self-hosted Piwik seems like the best solution. I'd be well into the billions.
