A Defunct Video Hosting Site Is Flooding Normal Websites With Hardcore Porn

Stories on major news sites like ‘The Washington Post,’ and ‘New York Magazine’ currently have porn embedded in them.

The site was VidMe, or Vid.me? A YouTube competitor that lasted for a few years, went out of business, and got bought by, apparently, a porn site. Hat tip to Tara for pointing it out to me at https://twitter.com/ResearchBuzz/status/1418322513457782791

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
