Spam tastes like sh*t in a can

1 year ago

Hey everyone, long time no speak! We recently decided to reserve this space for important updates and figured that my daily musings were only marginally relevant, so I'll only be using your time here to let you know of important changes and updates to the site.

Many of you, over the last week or so, have been letting us know about an increase of spam abuses on the site. Apparently there was one about some kind of phone sex line that had some of you thinking that your account was somehow hacked, and there have also been reports of friend request spamming.

As we've been growing rapidly, it has been a challenge to balance an easy way for users to sign up with the need to screen out spammers and scammers. We apologize for this most recent frustration and are pleased to announce that it has been a terrific learning experience.

We have recently put in place new controls to avoid a repeat of these types of spam bursts, and we hope that it wasn't too frustrating for all of you. Thanks for sticking it out with us, and long live Pornhub!

Peace,
Justin
