Pornhub is bigger and better monetized. They have more to lose. Xvideos would probably catre way less.

This is clearly false, they've claimed to be using a lot of technologies to preventively detect these issues. Visa has threatened to destroy not only Pornhub, but the whole parent company now. They'll just shut down Pornhub before

Since FB isn't a porn website I'd assume they do. A similar question would be, does facebook remove defamation/libel/videos (or profiles) of you or impersonating you etc.

It's funny to me there is a dead comment answering you question. Wish I could unflag it. EDIT: Found out how to. Why flag a comment that's answering a question?

You're right, but I think since gateways are so hard on non-mainstream content like porn it was made out of necessity rather than cost savings.

Chargebacks are a safety-net on top of payment systems. It gives peace of minds to users. I don't think they will launch a full-fledged cryptobacked anything, but if they do, chargebacks are a nice thing to support to boost adoption.
