How to Buy Porn Online Ethically
Buying porn online 101:
How to find the porn you are looking for. If you are reading this, maybe you got to the end of my piece on ethical porn and have decided you must know more. Or maybe you want to access pornographic content online in a legitimate way but you don’t know where to start. In either case, you are in the right place!
But Aren’t Tube Sites Bad?
PornHub has copped it’s fair share of criticism in the past; the owner/operations have been a little shady, small amounts of unverified content have crept through and they have been accused of pitiful payouts. However, PornHub hosts free previews and full length clips from mainstream studios, professional models, semi-professional models and amateurs. And although these videos are free, it is important to note that models and studios do receive ad-revenue (just like on YouTube).
All of the performers are verified and have consented to the content being published. If you would like to support performers on PornHub, I recommend making an account, subscribing to models/studios you enjoy and giving lots of likes and comments. This really helps models on the platform by increasing their ad revenue and exposure. Like your favourite search engine, your engagement with content you like will help that become more visible.
If you don’t know what kind of content you like PornHub is a great start as well, because you can see a wide range of categories, performers and types of content. PornHub no longer has paid options to purchase content from models, but if you find a model or category that you like on that site, you can use this information to find similar content elsewhere and pay for it.
Are Tube Sites Safe?
Back in the day, there was always concern about the safety of porn sites, especially when it came to accessing your personal data. But like the improved search engines, sites have had to become safer in order to protect their product (models) and their customers (you, dear reader).
For the protection of models and to comply with internet legislation, those creating stores and submitting content to sites have to go through rigorous verification with every single piece of content uploaded.
For the customers, payment processors are also serious about protecting your data, and keeping your business. Additionally, any purchases you make will generally appear very discreetly on your statement, in line with other adult services, such as online adult toy stores.
Hopefully after reading this you have a better idea of how to buy porn online, safely and ethically. In the next part of this series, I will start to talk you through the sites where you can buy content and support your favourite models and porn categories.
