Pornhub Sued By Dozens Of Women, Say Site ‘Knowingly Profited From Videos Depicting Rape’

In its latest legal battle, the pornographic website Pornhub is being sued by more than 30 women who are accusing it of multiple crimes, including the violation of federal sex trafficking laws, the distribution of child pornography, and racketeering.

“The suit alleges that Pornhub’s parent company, MindGeek — and its constellation of porn brands — is a criminal enterprise that purchases, launders and uploads illegal content often obtained through human trafficking and sexual assault,” reported NBC News. “The women say in their suit that MindGeek used nonconsensual content to ‘become the dominant online pornography company in the world.’”
