Another commenter already described how difficult it is to upload on pornhub now; but I think there is an incredible myopia when it comes to Pornhub. For some reason people believe if you shutdown pornhub then the problem goes away.

The profit aspect is misguided as well - there are probably millions of porn sites out there and on 4chan there are probably hundreds of illegally, coerced images trading around for free by obsessed weirdos who will dox women just to feel closer to them. Pornhub likely makes most of it's money from the top 10-20 pornstars; the bottom 99% just represents a headache which is why they probably found it easy to ban non-verified porn.

I'm sympathetic to sex workers who should be allowed to make money from their work; but the very distribution of content over the internet exacerbates this problem whenever there is porn involved.
