Pornhub's official Tor onion address has been offline since November 14, 2022. Pornhub joined the Tor network with its own onion address in January 2020 with the goal of providing secure, anonymous web browsing on its platform for LGBTQ's whose lifestyle is still criminalized in many countries (like Iran), and to make its platform more freely accessible with anonymity in countries where adult pornography is illegal and blocked on the Internet (such as China/South Korea/Philippines). Tor is free and open source while most VPN's must be paid for.
I understand that Pornhub got into a great deal of trouble a couple of years back for allowing various forms of child sexual abuse, nonconsensual pornography and copyright infringement to flourish on its platform. However, Pornhub has been resolving these issues and has made corrections. I thought Pornhub would keep itself established as one of the only few pornographic websites on the Dark Web that DOES NOT host illegal pornography. I thought Pornhub's good porn was a shining clean spot amongst the worthless illegal porn on the rest of the dark web. Pornhub was the ONLY major porn tubing site to host its own onion address on the Tor network, thus boldly journeying where XHamster, XVideos, XNXX, XXXBunker, Spankbang, SexTV, PornEQ, PornTrex, XFantazy and others have never gone before. Will the Pornhub onion address be restored, or will it be left to disappear forever into history?
