Yes, these really happened. And we’re thankful.

This has been a BIG YEAR in the fight to end trafficking and sexual exploitation. So much breakthrough. Tons to be thankful for.
But, instead of putting together a list of our biggest wins of 2023 (we’ll share more about those later), we wanted to do things a little differently.
Below is a list of nine surprising wins this year, which we're thankful for, connected to our work:
* That Pornhub started removing itself ([link removed]) from states which passed required age verification on porn sites 🤯
* That a porn producer quit the industry after hearing our message about trafficking in porn and joined us ([link removed]) in calling out the exploitation 😲
* That a former sex buyer, inspired by our film Buying Her, got a large tattoo of his shoes and survivors’ shoes ([link removed].) , symbolizing the life he is leaving behind 👞
* That the California state legislature finally decided to make child trafficking a serious felony ([link removed]) after first voting it down (thanks to many of you who joined us in demanding this reversal!) ☀️🌴
* That our VP of Impact, Helen Taylor, was interviewed on the popular No Jumper podcast ([link removed]) , hosted by a porn performer 🎙️
* That a united group of survivors pushed back ([link removed]) against a pro-porn documentary designed to discredit the Traffickinghub movement 📣
* That a Pornhub employee was caught on a secret camera saying traffickers use their site to make a lot of money ([link removed]) (and 26 state attorneys general who then demanded Pornhub fix their “loophole”) 📷
* That Maine became the first state ([link removed]) to pass the Nordic/Abolitionist model, which strongly criminalizes sex buying, a model we’ve been pushing for since the release of our 2011 documentary Nefarious ⚖️
* That the stunt coordinator for Fast & Furious 10 signed on to do stunt coordination for our new narrative film Point of No Return 🎥
And, of course, one big thing we’re thankful for, which did not surprise us:
* That people like YOU have given another year using your voice and means to support this growing fight to uproot trafficking and sexual exploitation. ❤️
We’re honored and grateful to be with you in the trenches!
