MindGeek has responded to the massive civil lawsuit filed yesterday by a group of attorneys, headed by a former lawyer for Donald Trump and Jerry Falwell Jr. on behalf of women whose videos were uploaded onto Pornhub by third parties, by reiterating their commitment to “eradicating illegal content" and by having implemented earlier this year “the most comprehensive safeguards in user-generated platform history."
The judge assigned to preside over the beginning of the massive civil lawsuit against MindGeek, which will hinge on complex issues of third-party uploaded content on online platforms, Section 230 liability and internet moderation, is 84-year-old Consuelo Bland Marshall, appointed by Jimmy Carter in 1980.
