The complaint pulls no punches. It lists 13 different points, including sex trafficking, distribution of child pornography (aka CSAM), and racketeering, among others.
This lawsuit could permanently break the back of MindGeek’s predatory “business” practices, and ensure that this company pays the price—likely in the hundreds of millions—for its crimes.
As we survey the irreparable damage that’s been done to Pornhub/MindGeek since the start of the #Traffickinghub campaign in early 2020, we’re filled with gratitude to see the diverse range of people and entities that have stepped up and labored tirelessly for the common goal of seeing this company brought to justice.
The power of viral videos, authentic journalism, pressure from businesses, government investigations, and airtight lawsuits have together become an existential threat to not just the "world's largest porn site" but to "one of the largest human trafficking ventures in the world."
As historic victories unfold before us, thank you for being part of this global movement that refuses to stay silent in the face of one of the greatest injustices the world has ever seen.
Check out CBS News’ coverage of the lawsuit, including a video they created featuring a few of the brave survivors.
