Any good free video hosters?

@ltxrob and @madjack , do you both still have copies of your deleted content or is it all gone?

The verification is the same for other sites - photo of yourself holding a card/sheet with your user ID, but I'm not comfortable with the security of these sites and with all the readily available facial recognition software... well, I'm not that brave.

I had considered it a few time, but never saw the benefit

Had I been presented with a 'verify yourself or we'll delete your content' message then at least I could have had the choice.

Indeed that would have been nice to be given the choice...

I have no time for the awful stuff that was behind the reported actions against these sites, so arguably my annoyance is a comparatively small price to pay... even if the nauseous material will almost certainly be available elsewhere aeady. 

but fully agree with this statement too!!

BTW, @Anne is a verified content creator!

I'm still on Pornhub, I only upload my own stuff and I am indeed verified so I'm still good.

A new tendency?

one of the 8ch threads said they're owned by the same company.

Spankbang is owned by BigBang Media LLC, Pornhub - by MindGeek.

Xhamster unless they are also the same company

This one is different. AFAIK they have a strange video review policy

It took roughly 1 day to recode the videos and 1 day to approve them. Officially they say that it might take up to 5 days. Let's see how reliable they are.

I don't really understand what this means.  Would you mind translating?

PotnHub stops paying 😁

I was more referring to the context rather than boiling it down to 3 words.  Could you say who pornhub is terminating business with and what it means "buying any traffic".  If you don't know, that's ok too.

This is about affiliation and forwarding traffic to MG sites (e.g. PH). MG used to pay for forwarded traffic. Also, it is supposed to pay to the creators. Since the traffic declined dramatically and will decline more, I wonder what the content creators would get now (e.g. @Anne). That might stimulate them to move to other platforms. MG has their own studios, though. It's amazing how much power the payment processors have now.
