Pornhub has just announced it will remove all videos on its platform that weren’t uploaded by official content partners or members of its model program.
This is the latest in a series of major policy changes by the adult site to safeguard its platform and combat illegal contents.
“As part of our policy to ban unverified uploaders, we have now also suspended all previously uploaded content that was not created by content partners or members of the Model Program,” according to Pornhub’s announcement.
“This means every piece of Pornhub content is from verified uploaders, a requirement that platforms like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat and Twitter have yet to institute.”
What this means is that a significant portion of its videos will disappear, pending verification and review, and the verification process will begin in the new year.
Last week, Pornhub banned unverified uploaders from posting new content and eliminated downloads. Prior to this change, anyone could create an account on Pornhub and upload any video they wanted to, since the platform’s launch in 2007, Vice reported
