A longtime MindGeek employee was captured in an undercover video admitting that management at Pornhub is aware that rapists and traffickers exploit a “loophole” in the site’s verification measures to profit from sexually exploitative videos.

These videos can then be monetized, a feature that the technical product manager alleged that rapists and sex traffickers use “to make a lot of money.”
