    Do you not remember the purge? They went from 12M vids to 2M overnight. And now it’s verified posters only. Sure, took em long enough to do something about it, but so far they are the only ones to do anything about it.

      Im not ready to give them a pat on the back and a gold star because they took down videos of people being raped 🤷‍♀️ that’s kind of the bare minimum. If all internet porn platforms contain some unethical or not-consensual content and PornHub has the least, that’s not a good enough reason to promote them imo
