A trial program conducted by Pornhub in collaboration with UK-based child protection organizations aimed to deter users from searching for child abuse material (CSAM) on its website. Whenever CSAM-related terms were searched, a warning message and a chatbot appeared, directing users to support services. The trial reported a significant reduction in CSAM searches and an increase in users seeking help. Despite some limitations in data and complexity, the chatbot showed promise in deterring illegal behavior online. While the trial has ended, the chatbot and warnings remain active on Pornhub’s UK site, with hopes for similar measures across other platforms to create a safer internet environment.

    I almost completely agree with that. Though I want emphasize, that I referred to pedophilia as a sexual orientation/preference. Call it whatever you like; if there wasn’t a sexual component to it, we wouldn’t have to talk about it (at least not in the context of pornography). Even if we do not completely agree on every point, I think we’re finally on the same page.

      well to bring this full cycle comparing pedophilia with homosexuality is harmful and again is normalizing abuse or demoralizing homosexuality

        The point being, that pedophilia is a sexual orientation/preference (call it whatever you want, denying it is a sexual thing is plain stupid). The comparison could just as well have been to heterosexuality. Abuse of children is as wrong as rape between heterosexuals. Being heterosexual doesn’t make you a rapist and neither does pedophilia. Again, the qualitative difference being that pedophile sex cannot have consent. I deliberately made the comparison with homosexuality because it widely has been, and sadly still is, demonized. If it wasn’t clear until now (it should be), I have no problem whatsoever with homosexuality.

          It isn’t a sexual orientation like I mentioned before, preference is some what correct.

          Never denied pedophailia being sexual, its obviously sexual, in some cases its even fetishised.

          I am a heterosexual man now if someone were to compare heterosexuality to zoophilia as a means to justify watching animated animal abuse I’d find it distasteful, I might even use the same expression of painfully ignorant and insulting.

          If you can’t comprehend my stance then that’s fine and we should just leave it at that as I doubt we have much more to say than is already said. Have a good <insert time of day>

            […] if someone were to compare heterosexuality to zoophilia as a means to justify watching animated animal abuse […]

            You see, that’s the trouble with our conversation: I did nothing to that effect. Not analogously, not figuratively, not between the lines, not at all.

            You keep arguing against things I’m not saying.

            I doubt we have much more to say than is already said. Have a good <insert time of day>

            Yes, have a good one.
