Personally I'm looking forward to more hockey and syrup themed porn

It's already on there, Pornhub was based in Canada from the start. If anything we'll be getting more board-member-has-a-sex-scandal stuff. Possibly with slightly less french undertones.

There's Canadian government funded porn as well, and the Canadian government wants more Canadian porn under their new proposed CanCon rules.

It's really going to take something out of S&M pornography when the person with the whip apologizes after every lash.

Excerpt from the linked content^1 by Joe Lofaro:

>MindGeek, the Montreal-based parent company of the controversial website Pornhub, has been acquired by a private equity firm.

>Ethical Capital Partners (ECP), an Ottawa-based firm, announced Thursday it is taking over the company, which has faced criticism in recent years for allegedly hosting illegal content, including child sexual abuse material, on the world's largest porn site.

>ECP's website describes itself as a firm that seeks "investment and advisory opportunities in industries that require principled ethical leadership."

>The terms of the deal are not being made public. MindGeek, which was founded in Montreal in 2004, has a vast portfolio that also includes other pornographic properties, such as YouPorn, Redtube, Brazzers, Men.com, and Sean Cody.

Why would an ethical firm buy this? They are probably going to make big changes to it.

It's one of those things where if it's right there in the name, you start to wonder if they're protesting too much. Like Truth Social...

Definitely a front. There has been some consolidation in porn sites and MindGeek owner has been all sorts of attacks. They even burned his house down. It was some organized crime stuff. This ECP is on the sketch list for sure. Sounds like Ethos Capital that tried to buy .ORG TLD as a private equity firm.

Investigations should start on ECP right away.

No mainstream US politicians fit the definition of socialist very well.

Even Bernie Sanders is just barely left of center in global terms, with the Democratic party slightly right of center. The USA's overton window is skewed very far to the right.

Probably related to stuff like this: Pornhub sued for allegedly serving “under-age, non-consensual” videos

EmbarrassedHelp t1_jcicb10 wrote

The groups like Exodus Cry who were going after them in those lawsuits were also really controversial, yet reporters often didn't verify the source. They trusted comments from sexist hate groups like 'National Center on Sexual Exploitation' purely because of the name.

hello_hellno t1_jcj03uy wrote

Yep, the groups lobbing against it are right wing Christian groups that literally qualified cosmopolitan magazine as porn and tried to shut it down.

Yeah, porn sites have too much leeway that allows for people with bad intentions to easily get around their checks. But mind geek has been at the forefront of solving that issue by requiring ID from all uploaders,, deleting 10 million non verified videos and making sure their staff at all levels are close to equal male:female ratio.

Porn will always be around, get rid of the top company doing at least a decent job preventing exploitation and you're just giving the unethical fringe sites more customers.

This probably explains why the PornHub Android app no longer works. Yes, PorhHub had an official Android app you could sideload. You could watch it in VR or cast to Chromecast. The last update borked the app and told you to go to the website.

It's not uncommon for religious groups to try and shut down pr0n. No idea if that's what they are or not, but their name doesn't give me confidence.

It's private equity firm, not a religious group. The only thing they worship is money.

Sure sounds to me like they have goals other than money.

back when Pornhub had the big wipe after the "underage" controversy, non-verified stuff got wiped, I assume a large part of that was erotic stuff, I know kinky stuff got deleted, a lot of the good amateur stuff too.

(I don't wanna link the website as it seems like I'm advertising, but if you google AIO streamer you only get sketchy rips of the apk.... so take "pornhub", remove "hub" and add "-app.com". I've never used the paid version and I never saw the need for it)
