Pornhub’s entire business model revolves around stealing content made by
sex workers without their consent and profiting off it with no
compensation to the workers who generate the content they steal.
Sex
workers are an incredibly vulnerable and stigmatised class of workers, mostly women,
mostly younger, mostly not rich, with little recourse, socially or legally, against a massive
corporation like Pornhub.
Pornhub relies on this, on how little you care about sex workers, to maintain a business
based on stealing their livelihoods.
Stop applauding a
corporation that literally exists to steal from marginalised workers just
because they have a competent PR department.
Fucking thank you
I’m not defending them but isn’t that true of all porn sites?
Yes.
This is going around again because Pornhub have apparently been billing themselves as an alternative to Tumblr for artists and sex workers and it was made originally because as they say, Pornhub has a very clever PR department (I’m thinking in particular of the snow plowing stunt last year) and people have a tendency to fall for it.
Pornhub pays 69 cents per 1k views while Youtube pays $7.60 for the same amount of traffic.
If someone steals your porn and uploads it, Pornhub requires that you doxx yourself to the uploader.
^^^^ Yep! Said it before, will say it again, and have been needing to remind people pretty often because it apparently takes nothing for y’all to forget that corporations don’t care about you (since people have been all starry eyed about their new BFF Pornhub):
THIS IS HOW IT WORKS:
When a performer discovers their reuploaded content, they must file a DMCA req to get it pulled down. This involves two main parts.
1. Their formal statement is required to *prove* they are indeed the owner fo the content, and therefore have the right to state it was not intended for redistribution.
2. To prove this, they must submit their LEGAL NAME AND ADDRESS to the site. As part of DMCA law, the site retains the right to DISCLOSE OUR NAME AND ADDRESS to the uploader, as part of informing them who has made a claim against the upload.
(Because of the frightening implications of giving my name and address to a porn site that can make the info available to a pirate, I have paid THOUSANDS in legal fees to incorporate in order to keep my info private. It was very expensive and absolutely not available to most performers, and for years I did not have this option available and had to continue doxxing myself to fucking pornsites)
NOTE!!! At NO POINT are the uploaders asked to provide legal proof of clip ownership, nor are they required to submit their name and address. Sites NEVER ask pirates to prove anything is theirs aside perhaps from ticking a check box. Pirates are hard to fight because sites do next to nothing to discourage them. Why? Because they make their money off of traffic, and all income is good income to them.
They don’t care.
Be better than them. Tubesites are not friends to artists and fair warning, artists that think Pornhub will be a great place for them will find that out when their shit starts getting reposted.
….and that is why being separated from our food’s origins and not knowing anything about botany is what is wrong with the world today goddamnit.
I bet some people would eat castor beans too. Or yew. Or just fuckin’ snack on some hemlock because it’s natural, man.
Fucking incredible.
LIKE IT TAKES SOME FUCKING EFFORT TO GET A CHERRY PIT OPEN FUCKING W H Y
Question: Is it the same with plums? I used to do that occasionally when I ate dried and seasoned Asian plums as a kid.
Yes.
Plum pits do not contain as much as cherry, but they do.
Do not eat stone fruit pits, people. Or bitter almonds.
They all have cyanide in them.
Oh boy, apricot kernels. The amount of people I see lauding those as a “cure for cancer” is… demoralizing. I can’t find it right now but I believe there was a mother in the past few years who was taken to court for child endangerment/neglect for feeding those to her very young child as a cancer treatment.
I saw this horror last year, and yelled for an entire hour.
To be fair, I bet if you die of cyanide poisoning the cancer won’t kill you.
I have been wanting to use these photos for months.
The recommendation is to only eat 3 in one hour. because that is just the most filling snack and of course they will stop at three.
Just because it’s natural doesn’t mean it’s good for you.
Just because it’s food for another creature doesn’t mean it’s fine for you.
Best case scenario it’s like grass which is basically neutral- it’s generally not going to kill you but there’s no nutrition for humans in it, and enough will probably make you sick.
Worst case scenario it’s something like belladonna berries which taste sweet but will kill you stone cold dead.
Same for the wrong kind of mushrooms, other berries, leaves and barks. Before consuming, CHECK. If you can’t check, don’t put it in your mouth.
Just because it’s natural doesn’t mean it’s good for you.
Just because it’s natural doesn’t mean it’s good for you.
Just because it’s natural doesn’t mean it’s good for you.
I’ve been saying this for so long, oh my gosh.
^^As a toxicologist, I approve this message.
Friendly reminder that the laws on supplement labeling in the US are super lax and haven’t been updated since 1994. That’s nearly 25 years ago!
Oh hey, forgot to mention I tweeted @ apricotpower on twitter about how their product is poison and they blocked me. You should all tweet at them too.
yall there is a post goign around thats like “hey pornhub is a great alternative for not safe for work content creators!”
yall. cmon. use ur fucking head, no it isnt.
pornhub is an asp’s nest of transmisoginy, pro-rape culture bullshit, and the users of that site actively steal content and nobody does anything about it. there are people who do use ph’s like custom pay per view situation or whatever who regularly get their shit ripped off and reuploaded/redistributed and nobody cares. the site steals from camgirls and sex workers.
if that isn’t reason enough to avoid it, they straight up still fucking use pop-up advertising in the year of our lord 2018. even if you have adblocker, pop-ups still happen. it’s also filled with viruses! like, shit that could literally fuck up your computer!!!!
please use ur fuckin brains, pornhub is NOT the safe haven yall are looking for. like, i’m not gonna argue w people who will boldly go even after being warned, like whatever man venture at ur own risk or whatever, but like. COMMON SENSE DICTATES THAT A WEBSITE WITH A “TEEN PORN” AND AN “INCEST PORN” CATEGORY PROBABLY IS NOT THE FUCKIN PLACE YOU WANT TO BE SHOWING OFF UR SHIT LOL
and ive seen ppl be like “well pornhub cares abt ppl they did sex safety videos!!” buddy theyre a fucking company, one good will gesture does not represent the company’s morality or its willing to do right by people in general. pornhub is like chaotic neutral at best.
GET OUR BOI OUTTA JAIL TONIGHT! BAIL SUPPORT NEEDED! 😩
Black Trans Man Arrested, Immediate Bail Support Needed.
A request for support from Dean’s friends and fam:
Earlier today, Dean, a Black Trans masculine person was arrested in Atlanta, Georgia, after a routine traffic stop. After being stopped, he was questioned repeatedly about the validity of his driver’s license. The officer believed that Dean was deceiving him, lying about his identity. Dean was taken to the detention center.
This happens often to Trans people who are unable to change the gender marker/name on their license. Because of the officer’s transphobia, he assumed Dean was lying.
Some of you maybe familiar with Dean, an Atlanta -based community organizer and activist. He is currently being detained at the Atlanta City Detention Center. He has been placed with the “female” population, where he will be kept until his community, family, and friends raise bail.
Bail is currently set at $315. We know that it’s a lot to ask. But on behalf of our friend, we’re asking that each person, who read this, donate just .99 or $1. A little can go a long way.
Can’t donate? Help us get the word out, BOOST!
Where to donate?
Donate now. A $5 donation, is $5 closer to freedom. Thank you to everyone who has already donated. 🙏🏾✨ Stay Up!
URGENT!! THIS IS MY LAST CHANCE!!!! (This is the post to boost!!)
My health is actually failing. I’m not being dramatic when I say I could die If I don’t get the medical help I need.
I suffer from chronic illnesses (a rare version of MTHFR HOMOZYGOUS, HIT, DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS, AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE + more)
and I am disabled and trans. I am jobless due to my illnesses and I am currently without any necessary resources to survive, be healthy, stable, or safe..
I have a rare blood clotting disease that causes me to be at the HIGHEST RISK possible to have a heart attack, aneurysm, or stroke. This disease has also resulted in multiple major surgeries, and countless other major procedures that have left me with debilitating chronic pain and other disabilities (limited use of my dominate arm, and even tasks like sweeping leave my arms in immense pain). I have two stints in my chest keeping my main vein open to my right arm so the blood can flow to it. And it still has trouble flowing back which causes swelling and excruciating pain in my arm. The main vein in my chest has been patched and dissected from a vein from my thigh because the veins in my right arm and chest are so damaged they weren’t able to save much. I had to get a rib removed because it was pinching my vein and causing clotting during which damaged a lot of muscles in my chest and shoulder causing even more chronic pain. They also wired my chest shut.
So I NEED to have access to good health care. I’m chronically ill with horrible and scary diseases. I’ve already almost died three times, and have been on my death bed twice.. I’m in and out of hospitals constantly, they don’t have the resources to help.
I NEED HELP. I NEED TO LEAVE AND MOVE IN ORDER TO SURVIVE!!! Please fucking help me!! Boost my links, donate whatever! I’m grateful for anything !!
I don’t want to DIE I’ve been fighting for my life since I was 16. I’m taking my health seriously and using the little bit of energy that I have to get shit done.
I’m honestly only asking for the bare minimum of what I need to move, for Rent, & basic necessities.
I’m trying to move to Colorado to escape (my abuser and stalker that I have a really traumatic history with. Violence and including assaults) I’m stuck in my hometown right now in northern MN. Where I’m at right now IS NOT safe for me and I NEED to leave..
My friend in Colorado has a place that I can move into ASAP, I just need first and last months rent. I have to move this month or she has to find a different roommate because of her own financial situation, so this is my ONE and only lucky chance!!
I NEED to move to Colorado for access to better health care (to keep me alive), and for my own safety.. This is VITAL for my health (mentally and physically).
NOW IS THE TIME TO SHOW YOUR SUPPORT AND BE AN ALLY !!
