theres a general problem with sex-focused websites (greatly exacerbated by sesta/fosta) that the content means a hard ceiling on how big they can grow. advertisers dont want to deal with you, you have trouble getting your app carried, its hard to promote yourself. once you reach a certain size you stagnate, and the money people begin pushing you find a way to make number go up (because number must go up). usually this means pivoting away from the porn and sex work and towards the mainstream, except that almost never works because 1) your old users are going to walk away, 2) theres no guarantee youll get any new users, and 3) your reputation as a former porn site is going to make your pivot to the mainstream extra difficult i assume this is what is going on with patreon and onlyfans - theyve hit a ceiling and trying to figure out how to keep growing, and that usually means giving the adult-oriented content and members and users the back of your hand if you work on the adult entertainment side of the internet you should just assume youll be completely upended and migrating to a new platform every few years

I don’t think they’re hurting jon ronson did a thing for audible called the butterfly effect that goes into that and its basically they did a youtube but also cornered distribution by buying the smaller streaming sites and ignored copyright claims until the porn industry caved enough to have to need to partner with them, then started making their own stuff to muscle them out further facebook is sort of doing the same with social platforms now

I don’t think they’re hurting pornhub got its start using piracy -- stolen video uploaded by "users" now that they're making money, they have pivoted to human trafficking. they don't do the trafficking themselves, they just host videos of girls and women being forced into sex on tape. extremely classy people over there.

FMguru posted:you missed the biggest one: gig economy jobs (uber, doordash, etc) breaking every employment law and protection, with an app sadly these mostly don't break the law california is one of the only states with enough labor protection for it to matter  FMguru posted:p much all "disruptive" "innovative" internet businesses are about finding weak/unclear/unenforced parts of the law and crashing into them, hoping to become big and influential enough to buy off legislators once the authorities begin to take note of them yeah that is a relatively new phenomenon in the 20th century businesses were mostly expected to be legal. i mean, sure, businesses broke the law, but usually they weren't built on nothing but breaking the law general motors is happy to break the law when it can get away with it, but fundamentally automobile manufacturing doesn't require law-breaking to be profitable in contrast, airbnb simply does not exist in any legal form. without the scads of illegal flophouses, it's not a profitable business

Notorious b.s.d. posted:on the one hand, i get what you mean about ethical consumption under capitalism i can't disagree with that, which makes one hope that legitimizing sex work more would help, but i'm not sure how you'd ever really know (which isn't an excuse not to try) even if one could find ethically-sourced, locally-made, grain-fed, small-batch pornography, the economic duress of it all still casts aspersions but perhaps the same could be said of all occupations under capitalism (wish i had solutions here instead of just bemoaning culture, but felt the call to  )

somebody mentioned gardening in a conversation and I suddenly remembered csszengarden.com loving 2003. some of the older ones (if you can't be arsed to browse them all go to the front page on wayback machine and enjoy trends changing over the years) look totally like modern landing pages, even if they're not ~responsive~ but even the newest submissions load in miliseconds Ruffian Price fucked around with this message at 12:54 on May 18, 2020 |

the only ethical porn is Rakelin panokoulu (Rakel's fuckschool) which was a programme on MoonTV starring Rakel and a boyfriend. I think they never aired the assfucking episode. (MoonTV otherwise aired such quality programming as "Big Things What Move")
