THE TRUE COST OF PORN: THE MONOPOLISATION OF THE PORN INDUSTRY

          

Open a private browsing tab. Turn on your VPN. Type ‘ethical porn’ into the search bar.

Press enter. Try hardcore porn, softcore porn, or just porn. No, it’s not just your browsing habits.  Every time it’s the same: Pornhub wins the race to the top of the page. The second, third, fourth (and so on) search results reliably go to sites with the same parent company: MindGeek.

MindGeek is the overlord of online porn – it passes through the industry, absorbing and acquiring stragglers and growing ever bigger. And it won’t be stopping any time soon because the government will not touch the adult entertainment industry, even when sheathed in latex. As a result, MindGeek continues ravaging the industry, unimpeded by anti-monopoly laws. MindGeek’s sites together consume more bandwidth than Amazon, Twitter or Facebook; it is a porn provider in every sense, hosting streaming sites, performer agencies, production sites, and advertising for porn journalism. Not only has this near-monopoly been achieved to the detriment of the sex worker, but it also ensures MindGeek has a hold over much of the population’s sex lives.
