In brief

* Mastercard and Visa cut off Pornhub, declining payments from customers who wanted to subscribe to its premium adult entertainment.

* The move came in response to a searing New York Times story that showed instances of children engaged in sex and women being assaulted in videos on the site.

* Pornhub changed its policies to clamp down on abuse, and today said it was accepting crypto only as its default payment.
