Where are you getting that women getting raped or abused is unique to only the porn industry? Is there any hard data, or is this just some bs that people assume happens in porn.

I don't claim that rape is unique to the porn industry; only that porn makes it worse. (Porn can be addictive, so supply increases demand increases supply. This has been documented with respect to CP. As those studies require library access, I will leave it to the reader to find someone with academic library access to read those articles.)

The major studios are a small part of the problem, however, it's the non-U.S. and underground scene that generates most of the problematic content.

In addition, the study finds that the incidence of child sex abuse has fallen since 1989, when child pornography became readily accessible.: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/11/101130111326.h...

These studies?

This correlation seems incredibly spurious.
It's the only evidence presented so far. And how else would you test this, if not by correlation? Persuasive narratives? Anecdotes?
