Google Search: Driving the Pornography Industry's Profits

When NCOSE researchers conducted a Google search test for “child pornography,” many top results yielded links to hardcore pornography websites, including Pornhub and XVideos.

This means that Google is effectively advertising for the world’s largest sexual exploiters that are currently under increased public scrutiny for the proliferation of child sex abuse material on its site.

Google must stop buttressing an industry that profits from people’s trauma and pain.

With a group of 104 survivors and advocates from 13 countries, NCOSE sent a letter to Google CEO Sundar Pichai requesting that the company “improve its search engine policies to no longer promote access to sexual violence, incest, racist or other abusive pornography.”

Pornhub's "Transparency Report" Is Another Admission of Guilt

There is ample evidence and testimony that MindGeek and Pornhub distribute and profit from child sexual abuse, rape, and non-consensual material. Pornhub's newly released "Transparency Report" adds even more evidence, as they expose themselves as hosts and profiteers of abuse material.

From the report:

“In 2020, 653,465 pieces of content were identified as potentially offending and consequently removed globally."

That’s over half a million videos in one year alone removed for violating touted policies against “content depicting a minor, non-consensual content, hate speech, content depicting animal harm, prohibited bodily fluids, incest, or violent content."

In order for these 653,465 videos to be uploaded and posted, Pornhub originally had to approve the content—Pornhub moderators and Executives viewed, approved, distributed, and monetized every single one of these videos in the first place.

This reported number likely only scratches the surface of the true nature and scope of the problem.

Haley McNamara, NCOSE Vice President, Published in Washington Examiner

"Not only is the pornography industry systematically and intentionally portraying rape, incest, and racism, but it has also facilitated real-life child sexual abuse and other nonconsensual content."

“Prostitution preys on vulnerable people and leads to psychological and physical trauma that cannot be regulated away. The focus of any prosecutor should be on reducing demand for sex, and ensuring that sex buyers and traffickers/pimps are held to account.

The law should penalize those who pay to use the bodies of other people for sex and those who seek to traffic them.”

Remembering Dr. Judith Reisman

The movement to end sexual exploitation lost pioneering advocate Dr. Judith Reisman on April 9.

Dr. Reisman is remembered for devoting her life to the protection of women and children from sexual exploitation. She was the first person to courageously take on the falsehoods of the infamous Kinsey Report.

She will be greatly missed.
