Interesting.

As we think about all the "how dare people ask payment processors/web hosting services/app stores to stop working with the people who plotted an armed insurrection," just a reminder that this was a month ago: pic.twitter.com/C0EBW2Vjfq

As an aside I'm sure some of you knew that Mastercard news already but it was new to me.

Hmmmm I don't remember that but I do remember somebody crying about cancel culture.

People spend money on Pornhub?

Yep. There is a membership thing you can pay for which opens up more content. They did a free month thing during the pandemic and I took advantage of it (for science). It was interesting to see the additional content available. It's also like paying for a music streaming service. You can get the stuff for free, but by paying something for the service you are compensating the people providing you with that entertainment. I may not have continued the Porn Hub subscription (mostly because it isn't where I tend to navigate for such things), but I am in favor of paying for those sorts of premium services because I like to compensate people for work I benefit from.

I agree with all that. I'm just surprised. I thought pornhub was a user uploading service like Youtube. The professional videos that are on there I assumed were illegally uploaded by someone and just hadn't been taken down yet or were offered as promotional material to get you to come to their website to subscribe there haha.

Only the ones that want to get caught. 

Kidding, there are professionals on there that you can pay for more content.

Or so I hear.

Yeah, that is what a lot of people think, but it's actually a pretty pro operation. In fact, they've made some efforts to crack down on that stuff in recent months. There are a lot of legitimate porn stars that have profiles on there and create exclusive content for PH.

Well thanks for passing along this little tidbit! Too bad you you didn't share it with us until now though. Sheesh!!!!

I'll confirm that for you, so you will not be forced to investigate.
I have a few online friends that earn money for their content.
The majority done so to get by after losing their service industry jobs to the Covid situation.

I'm thinking pizza delivery is booming, but most were bartenders and waitresses.

People who broke into the Capitol Wednesday are now learning they are on No-Fly lists pending the full investigation. They are not happy about this. pic.twitter.com/5GfHo1eVU8

EDITOR'S CORRECTION

This man was not told he was on the no-fly list for the Capitol attack. He was kicked off his plane for refusing to wear his mask above his nose. He is not a terrorist, just an idiot and a baby.

I've heard that the facts of this video as being presented are dodgy.  He was actually refused his seat dude to refusing to wear a mask.  

It makes sense.  If that guy was on a no-fly list, he never would have made it past the check-in or security screening, both of which come well before boarding.  I don't think the feds have actually put any of these people on a no-fly list yet.

Looks like you got to clarifying before I posted.

Yeah, OnlyFans has exploded like Zoom during this pandemic. Between people in the service industries losing their jobs and adult entertainers being unable to work in their traditional ways, everybody's tryin' to get paid for being nekkid.

I'm thinking I can flip the script. 
I'm certain people will pay me to keep my clothes on.

I'd gladly pay $50 to NOT receive a picture of your feet.

You couldn't make this up if you tried...

Parler is back online now by routing 100% of its user traffic through servers located within the Russian Federation.

Raise your hand if you understand the very significant impact this has on the ability to surveil and target insurrectionists who organize on Parler.
