All of that work and you just ambushed him like the paparazzi? Of course he wasn’t going to talk to you with those questions, you wasted an opportunity
This was probably the worst thing you could've lead with as an interviewer. "Please answer my questions... you're clearly an evil man, do you have anything to say? No?"
@@JJadx I don't even know if this interview, specifically would be considered journalism. The premise of the video is really poorly chosen. If they knew this was the likely outcome of a pointless man-hunt then they should've just made the whole report about those who have been harmed by PornHub. I mean, it seems like a lot of wasted effort to try to track down someone when you're just going to drive him away in the first 3 seconds.
It also leaves out the fact, this is the majority shareholder not the CEO. Like this guy does have some legal responsibility and could catch some charges for not using his majority voting stake to enforce the laws.. but he's not actually in charge, Feras Antoon is, and that CEO is 100% legally responsible for all crimes committed at the corporation and solving the issue. Like they made a huge deal out of the fact he used anonymous ownership tactics, called incorporation (costs a couple hundred bucks) and is so commonly used that my disabled self does it to separate myself from debt, dodge government income limits, and get a better tax rate should I actually do well. This is so common, your local politicians and business moguls have them. It's basic rich people 101
This investigation resulted in a lawsuit against him and exposure, and pornhub enacted a bunch of new rules protecting victims... the interview question seemed a very small part of this video and story.
Well the CIA does outsource to other countries people and entities. They don’t carry out their own crimes; they hire outside people. The CIA Is and idea and has the money; all they need are people that are willing to give them legitimacy and bodies

After watching this video, my thoughts are what happens when you hold the man accountable? It's not a stretch to say that with half of Netflix's content uploaded in a single day there is no way that those videos are heavily regulated. It's simply too much. The main issue that I think everyone can agree on is that when someone complains about a video saying they themselves are in it, or someone is under age or acting against their will, the video in question needs to be taken down. I think that it gets complicated when you try to hold a man like Mr. Bergwhateverhisname is accountable for allowing that to happen, could you really hold him accountable for not responding to every message about an incident if supposedly half of Netflix's content is uploaded every day? Anyway, that's just my thoughts good vid thanks vice.

Bergwhateverhisnameis is kinda irrelevant to the main issue here, cannot be held accountable for the misdeeds of people who decided to upload a buncha videos without consent or something.

Excuse me? The owner of a website is absolutely responsible for the content uploaded to it.

tracking someone down this way is creepy AF. but it's "ok" if it's journalism. they invaded this woman's privacy the same way these videos were uploaded without consent. pathetic.
Its not the same thing, is it? This woman uploads all these pictures and videos of her in the social media for all to see. The victims didn't consent. You see my point?
But it’s ok for her to profit off of sexual assault?? Her bf pays for much of her lifestyle with dirty money made unrelentingly off of assaulted girls without consent. Your OPINION is pathetic. People who hurt and demean others for their own profit do not deserve privacy- that right is dependent on the citizen obeying the laws. Journalists have the right to find these people and bring them to light and justice
These guys are stalkers and pathetic. But they did not invade anyone's privacy. If you put something out on the internet you are allowing that content to be accessible to everyone. If 2021 people don't know that pics have EXIF data on them, that is their own fault. EXIF data has been widely known about since the mid 2000s.
Some go independent and can make more money. However, they are consenting adults and if they don't believe they are getting what they should they don't have to do it. There are plenty of very popular ones that are retired at the age of mid to early 20's with millions in the bank. The issue here is the ones not consenting, which is horrible.
@@h2t26 many performers are either drug addicts/ mentally unwell and are in no position to negotiate. Its sickening. Porn is harmful for everyone except for the smallhats that profit from it.
@@Cabbage22927 speak for yourself. My wife and I upload our own content there and it has been a HUGE help with our financial recovery. I support PH and what it offers. Every major website has issues. FB, Twitter, you name it. You just have backward views on sex.
@@Cabbage22927 yeah, that's just not true and based on nothing but your bias. Is there some abuse? Yeah. Is there plenty of consenting people who rely on this for their livelihoods? Yes.
Revenge porn sounds like such a spiteful bitter thing to do. Very evil and causes so much hurt. I can't imagine anyone I've dated having to go through that kind of hurt.
I like how these people are so ready and eager to expose the owner but then if you go to their history tab, all the weirdest kink from Pornhub is on that list.
It’s so insane that only one dude was responsible for one of the biggest mistakes humanity has ever cultured but nobody ever knew his name or saw his face, until now…
I see nothing here within the context of this video that leads me to believe that this was done for the sake of the victims. This is TMZ reporting. How do the victims benefit from what was shown here? How is there accountability for sexual exploitation, by rushing up to someone and pleading they answer questions framed as they were? This is not impressive. This is a waste of time. Congrats, you found a pornsite owner. I'm sure that'll convince them to more thoroughly screen and moderate their platform.
Good job guys. Even if he didn't say anything to you, he must have been freaked out that finally someone confronted him and exposed who he really is to the rest of the world. He's not gonna be sleeping as comfortably after that interaction.
You missed a big part: The guys committing the initial crimes (filming without consent, underage girls, uploading illegal content, ....). It is one thing to investigate the owner (without a result but still great work in finding him) but why not ask the 14 y.o. girl who filmed her and who uploaded the content. The moderation and KYC of distribution companies comes afterwards.
These journalists are doing a great job. Say what you want about how they did it, but his identity is exposed and they tried. This is a step forward. At least they're trying to get accountability. #TheyDidMoreThanPplWhoDoNothing
There is no way pornhub regulate every uploads , thats why once that video is uploaded in pornhub its pretty much impossible to have it erased in the internet, just be paranoid I guess only do it in your own chosen place
The website hosting the pictures and videos is of course responsible. Also, lack of action (ie. not deleting videos with an unconscious person in it) is the responsibility of the website. You’re comparing apples and oranges.
@@icinfin117 They have taken action tho, they delete tons of videos every day. You heard the real problem in the first 2 minutes. There's too much content to moderate. Just like with KRplus. You cannot moderate that much content. This is the same problem that propped up for the NSA, GCHQ and many other government bodies like those. You can collect all the data of all of your citizens, but you cannot use it effectively for counter terrorism and security purposes, because you cannot physically sort through it. Porn Hub is a video hosting site. They have a basic ToS and they remove anything that is against it, or anything that gets flagged as breaking ToS. They can't be responsible for how individual users utilise their site. They do as good a job as they can at moderating, but it's not something that could ever be controlled, there is simply too much data for that.
It's really impressive how the authorities ignore women's abuse on so many different levels, from human traffic to these porn platforms. And I'm even more shocked about the comments here.... people are criticizing the reporters instead of paying attention to the content of the video. What is wrong with you guys?
Are you serious, you found him and then the first thing you do is alert him that you're onto him and barrage him with questions? You could've done so much more here...
If you have an Iphone go to Privacy/Location Services/Camera and make sure it says "Never" and you won't have location data put in your photo data. Theres no reason to have it on anyways

Just because he owns the site doesn't mean he is premising the use of sex abuse videos. Trying to regulate billions of videos is almost impossible. Blaming one person for a large problem doesn't seem right. It's the internet. It's the wild west out here. If you think one person is responsible, then you are wrong. Investigate the real criminals. The ones forcing these girls into sex trafficking.
Yup, according to laws and regulations around the articles of incorporation the CEO and the board of directors all hold liability for criminal charges for what has happened. The shareholder could be held liable, but you'd have to get the guy on tape telling the board of directors to break the law to ever see it stick in a court room. I know my lawyer would argue that the board of directors was feeding me nothing but "No War in Ba Singh Se" memos or actively defying my wishes to fix the problem.
No one can manipulate you into doing or saying anything unless you let them. All secrets will eventually be publicly exposed. You know the difference between right and wrong.
Clearly he is embarrassed and doesn’t want to be associated as the Porn King. Why else create a company “Mind Geek” that runs websites that all literally use the word Porn in their name. Why not “Porn Geek”? He’s clearly ashamed all his rich, swanky, upper class, elitist friends will look down on him. I think a mass flyer situation with his face and a brief description of the atrocious behavior he has allowed his trashy companies to engage in would be the best way to get him to make a public statement..maybe that would make him feel 0.00000001% of the shame, embarrassment, & pain this has caused the victims of Revenge Porn type vids.
So you're trying to uncover the owner of Pornhub and ask him about exploitation by literally stalking and tracking his girlfriend like a predator? Great journalism Vice
Ok, if the worker is alienated from the value they produce and then distributed a potion of said value, then the problem becomes the worker is left with less to take to market. Ok, so if sex work exists in a market, doesn't that mean the worker has less value to take to said market and so their sexual experience and options are limited, ultimately serving the owner class of both the worker and the market?
I’ve had my ex boyfriend posting my video on ph with him way after we broke up. He couldn’t get monetization from the video because there was no verification of mine on his channel. I just messaged to support and they deleted the video
Cassette recording, waiting outside the guys house. Great journalism, it really lends itself to the seriousness of the situation. They make it almost all about them, how they find him. Great 👌, the story is how good you are at find people from their online activity.
Guys like these are why you hire an experienced professional journalist to do the job, you stalk this guy and all that work, and you can't wait a few more days to do a setup and talk to him properly, instead you panic and shot fired basically, very reckless, now the opportunity is gone, very smart.
So this video was just uploaded, and the dislike ratio to likes ratio is already so high... im thinking it's just trolls but honestly these big companies could be dislike botting this video because I can already see its significance.

These guys are stalkers and pathetic. But they did not invade anyone's privacy. If you put something out on the internet you are allowing that content to be accessible to everyone. If 2021 people don't know that pics have EXIF data on them, that is their own fault. EXIF data has been widely known about since the mid 2000s.

It's a monopoly to. The performers are getting the shaft both literally and figuratively.
Some go independent and can make more money. However, they are consenting adults and if they don't believe they are getting what they should they don't have to do it. There are plenty of very popular ones that are retired at the age of mid to early 20's with millions in the bank. The issue here is the ones not consenting, which is horrible.
@@h2t26 many performers are either drug addicts/ mentally unwell and are in no position to negotiate. Its sickening. Porn is harmful for everyone except for the smallhats that profit from it.

@@badraccoon333 for every story like yours, theres 1000 people (mostly women) who get taken advantage of or abused. The porn industry is evil.
@@Cabbage22927 yeah, that's just not true and based on nothing but your bias.
Is there some abuse? Yeah. Is there plenty of consenting people who rely on this for their livelihoods? Yes.
Revenge porn sounds like such a spiteful bitter thing to do. Very evil and causes so much hurt. I can't imagine anyone I've dated having to go through that kind of hurt.
You're a good man with empathy. Unfortunately, there are men out there who enjoy hurting women .

I thought pornhub recently took down all unverified videos?
*just realized they put this at the end of the video
they took down all roblox too
Verification is easy to fake since 99.9% of PH visitors never report anything.
they did it because of these recent scandals, dummy
Nvm! I see it says it at the end of the video
It's crazy, this video didn't even get a million views while those p*rn videos does. This world is so damn twisted.
How completely irresponsible. Dogs chasing cars
How silly they were! They should have contacted the police first, especially legal warrant order.
@@thetruthsetsyoufree1492 the police have nothing against him.
@@bok.. Do you mean wealthy privilege or otherwise?
I like how these people are so ready and eager to expose the owner but then if you go to their history tab, all the weirdest kink from Pornhub is on that list.
😂😂on god bruh
It’s so insane that only one dude was responsible for one of the biggest mistakes humanity has ever cultured but nobody ever knew his name or saw his face, until now…
I see nothing here within the context of this video that leads me to believe that this was done for the sake of the victims. This is TMZ reporting. How do the victims benefit from what was shown here? How is there accountability for sexual exploitation, by rushing up to someone and pleading they answer questions framed as they were? This is not impressive. This is a waste of time. Congrats, you found a pornsite owner. I'm sure that'll convince them to more thoroughly screen and moderate their platform.
Right, I thought doxxing people was not cool
Well, after this PornHub did stop allowing random people to upload whatever they want. They completely changed their ToS.
Looks like they just wanted a click bait title to get views
Pretty sure gun, tobaco and pharma companies does way more damage to society.
Dont take that naked selfie and complain about it later.
Good job guys. Even if he didn't say anything to you, he must have been freaked out that finally someone confronted him and exposed who he really is to the rest of the world. He's not gonna be sleeping as comfortably after that interaction.
The site is built like a Bo3 loading screen
😂
It's nice to see that vice has learnt its lessons with regards to photo metadata.
Researching for a investigation like this must be a tiresome job
You missed a big part: The guys committing the initial crimes (filming without consent, underage girls, uploading illegal content, ....). It is one thing to investigate the owner (without a result but still great work in finding him) but why not ask the 14 y.o. girl who filmed her and who uploaded the content. The moderation and KYC of distribution companies comes afterwards.
These journalists are doing a great job. Say what you want about how they did it, but his identity is exposed and they tried. This is a step forward. At least they're trying to get accountability. #TheyDidMoreThanPplWhoDoNothing
They should have done nothing. PH has helped a lot of people out of poverty.

What, by hiding in the bushes? Surprised he wasn't up for a chat.
There is no way pornhub regulate every uploads , thats why once that video is uploaded in pornhub its pretty much impossible to have it erased in the internet, just be paranoid I guess only do it in your own chosen place

Great. Thank you Vice :) More of this please
Wow- you guys were able to make a true-crime short doc about pornography...
And make both subjects INCREDIBLY dull.
Yeah, well, it's not meant to be "entertainment".
All that work just to ask him if he has anything to say
Vice needs real journalists
They work for the Times not Vice.
What do you expect them to do? He wouldn’t have answered to anything.
People may send illegal pictures and videos through mail too, let's go after FedEx owner, he is to blame!
The website hosting the pictures and videos is of course responsible. Also, lack of action (ie. not deleting videos with an unconscious person in it) is the responsibility of the website. You’re comparing apples and oranges.
@@icinfin117 They have taken action tho, they delete tons of videos every day. You heard the real problem in the first 2 minutes. There's too much content to moderate. Just like with KRplus. You cannot moderate that much content.
This is the same problem that propped up for the NSA, GCHQ and many other government bodies like those. You can collect all the data of all of your citizens, but you cannot use it effectively for counter terrorism and security purposes, because you cannot physically sort through it.
Porn Hub is a video hosting site. They have a basic ToS and they remove anything that is against it, or anything that gets flagged as breaking ToS. They can't be responsible for how individual users utilise their site.
They do as good a job as they can at moderating, but it's not something that could ever be controlled, there is simply too much data for that.
How was this considered an investigative video when all you did was basically stalk his wife?
It's really impressive how the authorities ignore women's abuse on so many different levels, from human traffic to these porn platforms. And I'm even more shocked about the comments here.... people are criticizing the reporters instead of paying attention to the content of the video. What is wrong with you guys?
Because freedome of the internet and the people PH has helped out of poverty are arguably more important?
exactly
Governments invest in arms and porn since when did they have ethics?
Man was so surprised and breath taken that they found him so easily so much that he forgot his questions.
Are you serious, you found him and then the first thing you do is alert him that you're onto him and barrage him with questions? You could've done so much more here...
(((Brgmyr)) you say?
If you have an Iphone go to Privacy/Location Services/Camera and make sure it says "Never" and you won't have location data put in your photo data. Theres no reason to have it on anyways

This guys sound more creeps to track someone
VICE media is one of the most underappreciated and underrated media companies out there !!! love what you guys do
WOW!!!! Great reporting again.👍
The real crime here is stalking him and showing up to his house
Just because he owns the site doesn't mean he is premising the use of sex abuse videos. Trying to regulate billions of videos is almost impossible. Blaming one person for a large problem doesn't seem right. It's the internet. It's the wild west out here. If you think one person is responsible, then you are wrong. Investigate the real criminals. The ones forcing these girls into sex trafficking.
so, where's the difference between journalism and social engineering stalk?
A lesson to all the young and naive believing that just because your location is turned off that you can't be located.
Damn, they just gave out the whole blueprint to find anyone in 2021.

Porn Hup could not have been operating within this freedom range without the help of officials.
What about the CEO of PornHub? Shouldn’t they be held even more accountable tho? 🤔
Yup, according to laws and regulations around the articles of incorporation the CEO and the board of directors all hold liability for criminal charges for what has happened. The shareholder could be held liable, but you'd have to get the guy on tape telling the board of directors to break the law to ever see it stick in a court room. I know my lawyer would argue that the board of directors was feeding me nothing but "No War in Ba Singh Se" memos or actively defying my wishes to fix the problem.
Riiiiiight though!?!? Why is THAT person not being held even more accountable then someone who has an ownership stake?!? Great point!!!
that blur is a bit thin?
No one can manipulate you into doing or saying anything unless you let them. All secrets will eventually be publicly exposed. You know the difference between right and wrong.
Clearly he is embarrassed and doesn’t want to be associated as the Porn King. Why else create a company “Mind Geek” that runs websites that all literally use the word Porn in their name. Why not “Porn Geek”? He’s clearly ashamed all his rich, swanky, upper class, elitist friends will look down on him. I think a mass flyer situation with his face and a brief description of the atrocious behavior he has allowed his trashy companies to engage in would be the best way to get him to make a public statement..maybe that would make him feel 0.00000001% of the shame, embarrassment, & pain this has caused the victims of Revenge Porn type vids.
You sound like a particularity bitter old woman.
So you're trying to uncover the owner of Pornhub and ask him about exploitation by literally stalking and tracking his girlfriend like a predator? Great journalism Vice
All i got out of this video is how to become an investigative stalker…
Ok, if the worker is alienated from the value they produce and then distributed a potion of said value, then the problem becomes the worker is left with less to take to market. Ok, so if sex work exists in a market, doesn't that mean the worker has less value to take to said market and so their sexual experience and options are limited, ultimately serving the owner class of both the worker and the market?
I’ve had my ex boyfriend posting my video on ph with him way after we broke up. He couldn’t get monetization from the video because there was no verification of mine on his channel. I just messaged to support and they deleted the video

I love y'all for this investigation and video
this whole video is a stalkers guide to predatry
Cassette recording, waiting outside the guys house. Great journalism, it really lends itself to the seriousness of the situation. They make it almost all about them, how they find him. Great 👌, the story is how good you are at find people from their online activity.
Guys like these are why you hire an experienced professional journalist to do the job, you stalk this guy and all that work, and you can't wait a few more days to do a setup and talk to him properly, instead you panic and shot fired basically, very reckless, now the opportunity is gone, very smart.
This is a tutorial on stalking.
Don’t ever stalk me to ask me a question at my home. Ever.
So this video was just uploaded, and the dislike ratio to likes ratio is already so high... im thinking it's just trolls but honestly these big companies could be dislike botting this video because I can already see its significance.
yup
True
I disliked cause pornhub actually took action. They did remove any personal video posted by anyone.
