Big porn sites enabled trafficking for profit. Here, Takedown author Laila Mickelwait shares how her fight against Pornhub led to industry-wide reform.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1143What We Discuss with Laila Mickelwait:For over a decade, internet porn content provider Pornhub knowingly profited from illegal content with minimal moderation (10 staff per shift reviewing 700+ videos each) while requiring 15+ flags before review and tracking profits from questionable categories.Sex trafficking includes deception/coercion in monetized sexual acts. For minors, any commercial sexual exploitation automatically constitutes trafficking regardless of consent.Financial pressure proved most effective in Laila Mickelwait's crusade against Porhub's shady practices — credit card companies cutting ties forced the company to remove 80% of content overnight, demonstrating how targeting enablers can be as effective as targeting perpetrators.Third-party age and consent verification for everyone in every video would prevent most exploitation while protecting privacy.Strategic activism works — Laila succeeded by gathering evidence, building coalitions with victims and experts, and applying targeted pressure despite threats and harassment. Her example shows that determined individuals can challenge harmful systems by identifying pressure points and maintaining focus on accountability.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

Laila Mickelwait - PornHubSep 25, 2023Pornhub is a modern phenomenon. Boasting over 130m visitors a day, the site caters for almost all legal tastes. But beneath the surface lies another tale.

Trigger warning: This episode deals with sexual assault, sexual abuse, and attempted suicide. This week, Gabrielle sits down with non-profit organizer turned investigative journalist, Laila Mackelwait, as they discuss Laila's role in taking down the now infamous adult content site, Pornhub. Laila was one of the first to raise the alarm about the site's complete lack of content and user verification, which allowed anyone with just an email address to upload content, no matter what it was. This effectively meant that the site was set up to enable perpetrators to upload abusive and illegal content with no repercussions for their actions whatsoever. Until f%cking now. This episode highlights the urgent need for more accountability in our digital age as well as how one person with a mission for justice can make a huge difference.

Pornhub was once recognized as the largest and most popular porn site in the world. The site made it easy for users to upload and download content, which is desirable in other contexts. However, these features pose significant threats when applied to freely accessible user-generated, homemade, pornography. Reports suggest that without adequate safeguards, there was a rapid increase in uploads of questionable, illegal, and violent content, including instances of nonconsensual sexual acts. More troublingly, such content became widely viewable and could be downloaded onto private devices. Laila Mickelwait is the author of the new book Takedown: Inside the Fight to Shut Down Pornhub for Child Abuse, Rape, and Sex Trafficking. She is also the founder and CEO of the Justice Defense Fund, a non-profit organization that seeks to help bring justice to survivors of online sexual crimes. Numerous lawsuits have been filed based on sex trafficking, child abuse, and RICO laws in the U.S., Canada, and the U.K., with claims that Visa and two hedge funds also knowingly profited from content depicting sexual abuse.

Roar with Shari. . . All Things Justice for Women & Survivors
In this episode, I'm talking with Laila Mickelwait who fights for The Children of the Porn (New York Times). Laila was also featured in Vanity Fair's, February 2022 article Who Torched the Pornhub Palace. On the Pornhub site, viewers see child rapes, incest, revenge pornography, spycam videos of women showering, and footage of women being asphyxiated in plastic bags. The house that porn built.These countless victims' images and videos showing the child sexual abuse, criminal sexual exploitation and violence against women they endured, have been posted and monetized by Pornhub. Laila Mickelwait is the Founder and CEO of the Justice Defense Fund and the Founder of the global #Traffickinghub movement which is supported by millions around the world. She was in Vanity Fair, February 2022, "Who Torched the PORNHUB PALACE." The #Traffickinghub movement led by activist, Laila Mickelwait, called on the religious, non-partisan, non-centralized global effort to hold Pornhub, the 10th most visited website in the world, and the largest pornography website in the world, accountable for enabling and profiting from the sex trafficking and criminal sexual exploitation of countless victims including child sexual abuse. 2.2 million people signed a petition to shut the Pornhub site down. This nonprofit, #TraffickingHub documents abuses and calls for the site to be shut down. There are 118 million images downloaded a day of child sexual abuse and exploitation. According to #Nicholas Kristof of the #New York Times, Pornhub prides itself on being the cheery, winking face of naughty, the website that buys a billboard in Times Square and donates to organizations fighting for racial equity and offers ‘steamy' content to get people through Covid-19.The Justice Defend fund was created to empower survivors of sex trafficking, child sexual abuse material (previously known as pornography), and image-based sexual abuse to pursue justice through sustainable strategic litigation funding.

Laila Mickelwait joins Tim to talk about her work and a movement she founded to fight child sex trafficking. She's the founder of the Justice Defense Fund and the founder of a global movement called #Traffickinghub. That movement is supported by millions around the world. Laila talks about the role “Big Porn” websites play, and her work to hold sex traffickers and their enablers around the world to account. https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/shapingopinion/Laila_Mickelwait_Episode_final.mp3 We've talked a lot on the Shaping Opinion podcast about big issues where statistics are involved. Sometimes when we use statistics, we inadvertently distance ourselves from what we're really talking about – what's really going on. That could happen with today's episode. I have to share some statistics with you, but as you'll hear from our guest, it's not about the statistics. It's about the people, mostly female, mostly young, and all too often children who are victims of the worst kind of predators. They're victims of sex traffickers. Child sex trafficking is the most notorious form of human trafficking. The most common victims are homeless children, runaways, and young people in the child welfare system. You would think the traffickers make their money from selling the children into sex with strangers, and they do. But that's not where they make the big money. The big money is right in front of you. It's on your phone, on your computer. The Internet. Pornography is one of the biggest businesses on the Internet. But just calling this “pornography” may be too nice. Website and porn sites and porn site users engage in an economy that often features child abuse. Victims of child sex trafficking are depicted in photos, videos and other images that feature actual rape, real violent attacks and abuse. People pay to watch the live abuse of children on video streaming services. Porn sites attract over 100 million visits to their sites each day. They generate 47 billion visit per year. If you were to try to watch all of the content in one year of a major porn site, it would take you 169 years just to watch it. One of the most vocal activists in the war on sex trafficking, and more specifically child sex trafficking, is Laila Mickelwait.

With John Stonestreet traveling, Shane Morris takes the lead on this episode of “BreakPoint This Week,” and welcomes our old friend Warren Cole Smith back to the program. Shane and Warren discuss the remarkable work of Chinese Christians to aid and evangelize their neighbors in the midst of the Coronavirus crisis–very much like their ancient Christian brethren did during the plagues of the Roman empire. Also today: a new petition to for the government to take down a popular porn site that hosts videos of trafficked minors; Indiana lays to rest 2,411 aborted babies discovered in the garage of deceased abortionist Ulrich Klopfer; what's with the Nones? Are the numbers reversing? And finally, they discuss David Brooks's compelling article about the nuclear family–a much-revered model of the family that may not, in the end, be either sustainable nor reflective of God's plan for families and human flourishing.
