Gwen Adora, a curvy white woman with red curly hair and a blonde money piece, faces the frame waist up. She’s wearing a purple tank top that shows her mid drift, and is sheer to slightly show her nipples through the fabric. She’s looking at the camera with a slightly surprised smile with her hands on her lower back. She’s in a room with floral 60s/70s wallpaper and a disco ball.

there likely will never be a reckoning for how much AI tech companies have stolen from sex workers, but at least we have records of it

Meta Accused of Torrenting Porn to Advance Its Goal of AI ‘Superintelligence’

Strike 3 Holdings is suing Meta in federal court, alleging the tech giant pirated copyrighted adult videos to train its AI models.

Turns out the politician who "banned" Kneecap from entering Canada may have gone rogue and done it without authorization. Not to mention they might not even be banned at all because it's beyond his authority to do so. He's refusing to comment on it

We warned legislators and regulators this would happen. We showed them data on consumer non-compliance and the surge in VPNs and pirate sites.

They knew this would happen didn’t care.

New: I looked at 90 porn sites to test the new age-verification law rewriting the web. The ones following the rules, and scanning visitors' faces, are crumbling, while the lawbreakers are doubling or tripling their traffic. One of many unintended consequences for an experimental tech wapo.st/47QuttW

‘Scan your face’ laws for the web are having unexpected consequences

The new age-verification laws in the United States and United Kingdom have brought some surprising downsides, including soaring traffic to seedy parts of the web.

If America destigmatized sex a bit more, perhaps we wouldn’t have this problem!

An adult industry company fought and won the right for fair banking access to all Americans.

Up until this month (August 2025), any American’s bank account could be seized (along with their $$) if the bank deemed them a “reputational risk”.

While I welcome nuanced thoughts on this personally, the main point of my thread is that nuance cannot be taken at this moment in time when human rights are on the line because this is a black and white issue to governments.

Gwen Adora ☀️ @gwenadora.bsky.social · Aug 23

A porn group was behind this order that just passed that assures all Americans fair banking access.

And we cannot not mention the amount of queer/underground/punks that have held up this industry since it started. Independent (and big) porn companies are made up of these folks.

Even in today’s culture, while everyone watches porn & the OF baddies can pop off on IG… the way we actually exist in society is still marginalized.

Many performers have been denied mortgages or other basic traditional means of financing. I can’t enter into the USA right now bc of my work.

While yes, you might consider porn “mainstream”, it exists outside of the mainstream, almost opposite to it.

Performers of all income levels and studios have historically had their bank accounts seized, their social media accounts deleted, their children taken away by the courts because of “porn”.

Gwen Adora ☀️ @gwenadora.bsky.social · Aug 23

There is no push for shutting down criticism of the industry, but we need to ask ourselves why are the voices of people not within it amplified 100x more than the marginalized workers who are? Why are biased conservative Christian orgs suddenly experts on this topic?

Gwen Adora ☀️ @gwenadora.bsky.social · Aug 23

Perhaps it got lost in translation then, my bad

Mas, como não podemos separar a misoginia de literalmente nenhum aspecto da sociedade, impor leis estranhas à indústria pornográfica não resolve os problemas.

Sim, a pornografia "tem misoginia", assim como outras plataformas de entretenimento e outras áreas da vida. Nossa mídia reflete o mundo em que vivemos.

O ponto principal do meu tópico original é que estigmatizar a pornografia, que é o que você está fazendo ao adotar uma postura intermediária, beneficia as ideologias conservadoras.

Eles querem que você acredite que a pornografia é a culpada pelos problemas que eles criam.
