They should have done more penetration testing.
It wouldn't have taken much effort to find that gaping back door.
They rushed. If you push it too fast it'll blow up in your face.
Amateurs.
...Ive seen the fact that comments exist on these sites but genuinely who makes an account on pornhub?
I mean premium was free in 2020... you could download 4k VR content in the TBs. Oddest thing ive ever had stolen
How else do I save my favourite videos?!
spoiler
Save the url in a text file you dingus
You save the file to disk like a proper pervert
Please ignore my 500GB homework folder.
If PornHub has any of your data, congratulations, you are an idiot.
They have endless supplies of free content you don't even have to login to watch, and they don't block ad-blockers or VPNs afaik.
According to ShinyHunters, the records contain extensive data on Premium members including email addresses, activity type, location, video URL, video name, keywords associated with the video and the time the event occurred. Activity types include whether the subscriber watched or downloaded a video, or viewed a channel and events include search histories.
This sort of thing is one of those examples why "no log, no profile" service is probably a good idea. The service could have offered the option to charge a fee for access, but not retain customer activity data. They didn't do that. At some point down the line, someone got ahold of the data, which I imagine that their customers are not really super keen on having floating around attached to their identities.
Probably a lot of companies out there that log and retain a lot of data about their customers.
Good idea for consumers. Too bad nobody cares about that. Unless it’s their core business.
This is exactly why we need GDPR
how much of them are conservatives watching gay or trans porn.
Exactly the first thought I had.
YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS, IT'S TIME TO PLAY THE WORLD'S LONGEST RUNNING GAME SHOW....
WHICH QUEERPHOBIC PUBLIC FIGURE IS WATCHING QUEER PORN!
Let's Greet our Contestants, shall we?
He's so homophobic someone renamed a mix of Cum and Lube after him, it's Rick Santorum!
He's so transphobic JK Rowling told him to tone it down, It's Graham Linnerhan!
Despite wearing platform shoes, he wants to make all forms of Queerness a crime, it's Ron DeSantis!
And finally, she's called for Transgender Women to be executed en mass, for famous transwomen to be raped, and she's featured in some of the Queer porn in question, it's Lily Cade!
PUBLISH ALL OF IT!!
Why do you need to log into pornhub? I, um, a friend of mine, uses it fine without logging in...
There was a time when they were pushing the step sibling fetish real hard, like, all the videos in the front page were that, and then they put a banner saying "tired of seeing step____? Why not make an account and filter it out?"
Dunno about y'all but I can wank through the made up plot points without much trouble
If I could wank it to scrambled porn 30 years ago then any subtext or dialogue is like a fart in the wind once I get going.
You can follow uploaders, but since the mass removal of 85% of their videos I doubt the website has ever gotten better. I had a few favourites noted down but none of them exist now.
This is going to be fun. Let’s do some Data Analysis with this. Find the republican with the highest amount of watch time of gay porn.
South Carolina has entered the chat
Oh, but the children are safe and priority and that's why they want to verify them. Oh but the children. Think about the children!!! CHILDREN!!!
Children is all US Republicans seem to be able to think about...

haha
It'll be fun finding all those "antiporn", "antidei", "antilgbtq+" fine people watching exactly that. Bonus points for .va domains.
.va = Vatican city officials, for those too lazy to Google.
LMAO at anyone who made, or paid for, a PornHub account.
"Yes, I would like to log into PornHUB using my GMail account, please, for my convenience" - I just checked, they have SSO for Gmail and Twitter! AHAHAHAHAHAHA I'm dying
Sorry, but I don't think we're emphasising enough that Pornhub shared details of its users, such as their search history and watched videos, with an external company and that external company kept that data for over four years after their relationship ended.
I'll never understand why people create accounts in the first place
This why they are against store peoples ID. And this why those websites should never do it.
The most embarrassing part about this would be people finding out you actually pay for porn
Release the pornhub files!
Pornhub has not worked with Mixpanel since 2021, which means that the stolen data would be from that year or earlier. Reuters, who contacted some Pornhub customers to confirm the breach, was able to authenticate that the user data that pertained to those customers was accurate – but was several years old which would be consistent with the Mixpanel data.
We checked our accounts and this is what we found...
I was expecting "we are fucked" after "here’s what we know so far".
I have heard people try to explain why they log in on porn sites: It saves your favorite videos, it recommends new videos and it makes it possible to see paid content.
All three things are reasons why I don't want to log in. Yeah, like I want a list of my perversions attached to my name.
2 in the pink, 200 million in the stink
