Not long to go now! A global summit like this has never been done before. Yes, there are global summits on child exploitation prevention and digital safety - but nothing to specifically address #pornharms on children and strategise solutions. We would love you to join us!

[Connecting to Protect @ProtectGlobally]

Protect kids from the longterm affects of #pornharms — join our world-first global virtual summit, coming up next week. Our event aims to address the neurological harms associated with children's unrestricted access to this online content. Register at https://t.co/maavEZCCud.

Candice is one of my all-time favourites! It's so important that we understand the particular vulnerabilities of teens on the spectrum and ensure we adequately support them to make better choices with their online activities.

[Connecting to Protect @ProtectGlobally]

We're excited to hear from speaker Candice Christiansen, Founder, Clinical Director Namaste Center for Healing. Her session "Autistic Teens, Online Dangers and Effective Interventions" is one you won't want to miss. Learn more about our virtual summit at https://t.co/maavEZCCud

Hold all the execs accountable. And then see Pornhub and all Mindgeek entities come tumbling down, down, down. While we’re at it, the rest of the industry can fall too. It’s time. #TraffickingHub

[Tortoise @tortoise]

He lives on one of London’s most exclusive streets.

His identity has never been fully revealed.

Until now.

This is Bernd Bergmair.

Owner of MindGeek, the company behind Pornhub.

🔊Hunt for the porn king - out now, only on @tortoise.

@Stacisprout @YourBrainOnPorn @NoFap @AlexanderRhodes @NoahBeChurch @Reuniting @gabedeem @ncose @iitapllc I'm totally with you - words cannot express. Gary deeply impacted so many people's lives and his work will live on for years to come. Such a hero. Honoured to call him a friend.

NEW STUDY "draws on largest sample of online pornographic content to date & is unique in its focus on content immediately advertised to a new user. We found that 1 in 8 titles shown to first time users on the first page describe sexual activity that constitutes sexual violence."

[Laila Mickelwait @LailaMickelwait]

Pornhub is a crime against humanity. Shut it down.

#Traffickinghub

[Laila Mickelwait @LailaMickelwait]

BREAKING: 70 Canadian MPs & Senators from 8 parties sent a demand letter to the Canadian Police calling for a full criminal investigation of Pornhub/MindGeek.

This follows a letter to Parliament from 525 NGOs & 104 survivors in 65 countries calling for the same. #Traffickinghub

[Liz Walker @LizWpresents]

This criminal company needs to be held to account. The damage they have caused is irreversible for the lives of those impacted - corporate pedophilia and rape central. Here’s the letter. https://t.co/PAMKVAxTp1

[Laila Mickelwait @LailaMickelwait]

Over 100 survivors and 500 NGOs from 65 countries call for a Pornhub criminal investigation:

“I too feel like Pornhub has become my human trafficker, and they have been relentless in doing so,” said survivor Victoria Galy.” #Traffickinghub https://t.co/T8zGZe2GBO

[Laila Mickelwait @LailaMickelwait]

“Havlovic possessed at least 2,500 images of child porn, including ‘depictions of sexual abuse of young children.’”

His attorney said he first accessed child sexual abuse images on mainstream porn sites such as Pornhub. #Traffickinghub https://t.co/YFNUjkfXNF

[Liz Walker @LizWpresents]

Pornhub crime scene called out by orgs around the world. MindGeek CEO testimony was amass with avoidance, omissions & denials. They had several opportunities to apologise to victims for life-long harms incurred but of course, they didn’t. Investigate & prosecute. #TraffickingHub

[Laila Mickelwait @LailaMickelwait]

104 survivors of sexual abuse and 525 NGOs from 65 countries published a strongly worded open letter today to Canada’s Ethics Committee demanding a Canadian criminal investigation of Pornhub.

The whole world is saying SHUT IT DOWN. #Traffickinghub

[Liz Walker @LizWpresents]

The continued harassment is alarming–but the good thing about truth is that you can't hide it. Serial lies eventually get exposed. Thankfully, this perpetrator is getting ratted out, evidenced by these legal victories.

[Laila Mickelwait @LailaMickelwait]

Pornhub execs say world renowned “journalists make stuff up”; victims aren’t telling the truth; activists are liars intentionally misleading people; organizations are spreading false information.

Basically Pornhub is gaslighting the entire world—not a good look. #Traffickinghub

[Liz Walker @LizWpresents]

Outstanding news. Justice for victims. Criminal charges against MindGeek. Their days are numbered.

[Laila Mickelwait @LailaMickelwait]

BREAKING: Class action lawsuit against Pornhub and its parent company MindGeek for child sex trafficking is filed today in the US by six law firms. https://t.co/6V1lxj1gLc #Traffickinghub

[Liz Walker @LizWpresents]

The trail of destruction this man left is incalculable - the world will definitely be a better place with less pimps and porn moguls. Looking forward to seeing Mindgeek CEOs held to account. #TraffickingHub

BYU researchers just published the longest study to date on the effects of social media on teenagers.

While sm had little effect on boys' suicidality risk, girls who used sm for 2-3 hrs/day & increased their use over time were at a higher risk for suicide

Well this is beyond disappointing. Surely there’s some tech geniuses with good hearts who can do better with defeating deepfakes. https://t.co/WDc9fcbNW5

[Liz Walker @LizWpresents]

Language excused. This was just one of the MPs who roasted the Mindgeek CEOs. Evidence is overwhelming. These parliamentarians are not fooled - neither are we. #Traffickinghub #Justice

[Laila Mickelwait @LailaMickelwait]

Excuse my language, I don’t know how else to say it...watch Pornhub’s CEO Feras Antoon get his ass handed to him by MP Charlie Angus. Antoon is going to prison. #Traffickinghub @CharlieAngusNDP

[John Carr @johnc1912]

The Canadian Parliament has been putting Mindgeek, owners of Pornhub, under the microscope. It's not a pretty sight but well done them and all my Canadian colleagues for sticking to the task. https://t.co/Fn83Sg3ROP

[Liz Walker @LizWpresents]

Agreed. I make the bold prediction that we are in the middle of seeing a criminal empire crumble for their role in hosting CSAM, failure to respond with removing this content in a timely manner, failure to report it to authorities, hosting non-consensual content and more ...

[Laila Mickelwait @LailaMickelwait]

Pornhub executives were an unprepared stumbling disaster today—implicating themselves criminally, not able to answer simple questions regarding their business or finances, or their legal obligations to report child sexual abuse on their site. These men will be in prison soon.
