Dear Friend,

The big moment is here!

The 2020 Dirty Dozen List is officially being unveiled live on our website at 10:00 AM EST. If you're not able to watch our full launch announcement yet, you can get a preview of several of the list members below and the list is now available on our site with evidence to review and actions that are primed for you to use.

Also, for the first time ever, we are releasing a Dirty "Baker's Dozen" List. That's right, there was so much work to be done that we had to expand the list.

It's time to dig in and begin taking action!

Seeking Arrangement

Seeking Arrangement is one of the largest pseudo-dating prostitution (sometimes called “sugar baby”) websites, with over 20 million members. Seeking Arrangement prioritizes targeting college students who struggle with student debt to service socio-economically advantaged older men. This is a system of thinly veiled prostitution and therefore must be recognized as sexual exploitation.

Take Action

TikTok

With more than 500 million active users worldwide, TikTok is a social media video app increasingly popular among elementary and middle school-aged children. Due to a lack of moderation and meager safety controls, TikTok has facilitated a space for sexual grooming by abusers and sex traffickers.

Take Action

Visa

The credit card company/corporation Visa partners with the pornography industry by processing payments for pornography with themes of sexual violence, racism, incest, and the fetishization of minors. Other major payment systems, such as Paypal, have rejected profits from the sex industry by refusing to allow their system to be used by pornography websites. It’s time to hold Visa accountable.

Take Action

Wyndham Hotels and Resorts

Wyndham Hotels and Resorts, which owns the Super 8 hotel brand among others, is a prominent hospitality chain with more than 9,000 hotels and resorts worldwide. Unfortunately, Wyndham also profits from exploitive on-demand pornography and is being sued by the National Center on Sexual Exploitation Law Center for facilitating underage sex trafficking.

Take Action

Meet the Rest of the 2020 Dirty Dozen

Sincerely,

Dawn Hawkins

Senior Vice President and Executive Director

National Center on Sexual Exploitation
