    I remember back in the golden era of Reddit AMAs with Victoria… There was an AMA with one of the higher ups at PornHub. She was like a site admin, so she had some high level knowledge of how the site actually ran, and she could see stuff like the site’s user statistics, average watch time, etc…

    Someone asked how often people actually use the “share to Facebook” button that is on every video. She said it happened more often than most people would want to believe. Like apparently there’s an entire subset of Facebook users who are just blatantly horny on main like it’s no big deal.

    I could never understand why porn sites have a share option, it’s absolutely baffling.

      If you’re logged into a social media account and encounter a “share on said social media” button, this is dutifully logged and provides metrics of the types of groups encountering said button.

      It’s not for sharing, it’s for metrics about what kind of people view the site/article/top ten list/hardcore porn. Targeted advertisement is cash money.

        Metrics are usually tracked using a tracking pixel, which is invisible. They don’t need a visible share button to do that.

      Porn sites are smart enough to know that dumb people will do dumb shit, and the sites capitalize off of it.

    One of my uncles doesn’t seem to be aware we can see all his likes and comments on Threads.

    He is just sharing a passion. Be sure to comment so he gets those.

    reads title of video

    Your not his daughter are you? (Those videos employ actors and actresses. Few are related and the stories are made up.)

      I am. 😭 but from what I’ve seen those videos are just the 2 “dads” having sex with the other one’s “daughter” together. Still concerning and weird af but at least not incest.

        As a 41 year old man, that’s abnormal behaviour. Wtf is wrong with him? Does he have friends, colleagues, family and a spouse in there and do they want to know his taste in porn?

            Is he aware he does this shit? Does he delete them in the morning when he’s sober? Do you know if anyone has talked to him as asked “what the actual fuck?”

            Like this is going to significantly and negatively affect his social life, and craters job prospects if he ever has to go on the job hunt again.

            Like maybe he needs to be shown how to favorite things instead of posting it to FB to find later?

            I’m not particularly happy about it, but many years ago (like 2007-ish) I had to have a talk with my father (in his late 40s at the time) about how to clear browsing history on the shared family desktop. And again about private browsing mode a year or two later when that came to IE and other browsers outside of Firefox.

              They usually get deleted quite fast by the FB filter. You just have to be… unfortunate enough to see them during the first minutes in your feed. I told him, be careful what you post when you drink. He’s like: “wdym, I AM careful”. Proceeds to do it again. I’m honestly starting to believe this might be an exhibitionism thing that pops out of him like that due to alcohol lowering inhibitions.

          Could have some sort of medical condition. My dad could probably manage a smartphone except he has MS which makes using a touchscreen or small buttons very difficult. I could see any sort of nerve damage to the hands doing the same.

    Wait, is Facebook ok with that?? This content isn’t advertiser friendly! What if a big advertiser discovers that their sponsored content is placed right next to pornhub???

    They definitely would be pissed about that!

      Does FB require a federally accepted ID be uploaded to have access? I would assume the states requesting that for pornhub should do so to share content from pornhub on a major social media site would you not?

    What a fucking dumbass. I’m sorry, but he really doesn’t know how dumb he’s being.
