SHUT DOWN PORNHUB! 2 MILLION SUPPORT PETITION
A petition calling for the dismantling of PornHub, the largest pornography hosting website in the world that critics say profits off of and enables sex trafficking as well as child abuse, has surpassed 2 million signatures.
The petition launched in February by Laila Mickelwait, director of abolition for the Sacramento-based nonprofit ExodusCry, has received signatures from 192 countries, according to a statement sent to The Christian Post Tuesday.
The petition and corresponding website allege, with notable evidence, that the site has been enabling and profiting off of crimes like rape, abduction, sexual assault and sex trafficking.
The petition even yielded a letter from U.S. Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Neb., in March asking Attorney General Bill Barr to conduct a federal investigation into the porn website and its parent company, MindGeek. . . .
Recently, Mickelwait met with lawmakers in Washington D.C. and presented an evidence-based case against the website, which she says draws about 42 billion views per year.
“All it takes to upload content to PornHub is an email address — no government-issued ID is required. Pornhub doesn’t bother to reliably verify the age or the consent of the millions featured in the videos it hosts and profits from,” Mickelwait said in a statement this week.
“The site is set up for exploitation and is infested with videos of the real rape, trafficking, abuse, and exploitation of women and children. We have significant evidence and it is just the tip of the iceberg. Pornhub is arguably the largest public collection of sexual exploitation evidence in existence.”
In June, the petition passed the 1 million signature mark. As of Thursday afternoon, the petition has amassed 2,026,877 supporters. . . .
Mickelwait set the campaign in motion by penning an op-ed earlier this year detailing how easy it was to upload content on to the porn hosting site.
The following day, the BBC reported the case of Rose Kalemba, who was taken at knifepoint and raped for 12 hours when she was 14 years old.
Her attackers uploaded the videos of the brutality they inflicted on her onto Pornhub and Kalemba had to threaten legal action in order to get the videos removed.
“The titles of the videos were ‘teen crying and getting slapped around,’ ‘teen getting destroyed,’ ‘passed out teen.’ One had over 400,000 views,” Kalemba told the BBC at the time.
“The worst videos were the ones where I was passed out. Seeing myself being attacked where I wasn’t even conscious was the worst.”
Pornhub told BBC in a statement that the Kalemba videos date back to before the current owners of the website took control and assured that the company had “put in place the industry’s most stringent safeguards and policies when it comes to combating unauthorized and illegal content.”
ExodusCry has also documented the case of a 15-year-old girl from Florida, who had gone missing for a year before being located. Fifty-eight videos of her rape and sexual abuse were discovered on the website, which had been monetized.
Last November, PayPal cut off services to the Pornhub as a result of the site’s streaming of content featuring women and children who were trafficking victims.

In the name of allah i wish porn hub is removed from existence of humanity and other souls that were scarred by this site and to forgive their sins amen.
Father God we believe for porn to be shut down in the name of Jesus, human sex trafficking or any other demonic spirit that is not like God in Jesus name Amen
Please heal the victims from these crimes against them. I hate these sins of omission and unclean spirits of sexual abuse. Please dismantle these porn sites. Please protect the youth and adults from sexual predators in Jesus’ mighty name. Amen!
Dear Father God,
“Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me? No Father God nothing is to difficult for you.
Please save all those working the porn industry especially CEO Feras Antoon and COO David Tassillo of Mindgeek, the company that owns Pornhub. I pray that my brothers & sisters in Christ and all others who are entangled in it be delivered and set free in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. I decree & declare a mass exodus from pornography to Jesus Christ, from death to life, from darkness to light, from fantasy to reality, let the porn industry go bankrupt and let it be abandoned. Let their be a great distaste for it.
“I am the LORD, the God of all the peoples of the world. Is anything too hard for me. In Jesus name I pray Amen Amen
Father God we pray for you to completely annihilate this evil from our country and protect our children and teens from the affects of the abuse. Forgive us for ever allowing this kind of evil into our country and our lives. Please heal those who have been abused and turn this all around for your Glory and HEAL OUR NATION! In Jesus’ name, AMEN
Father, I pray in the name of Jesus, that You would shut down Porn Hub without further delay! I ask Father that severe punishment would quickly be served upon those who own and run that site!! Cleanse this nation of pornography!! Bring great conviction and repentance upon all who partake of this sin!! Father have mercy upon those who have been abused sexually. Show Your mighty healing hand to the abused. Jesus, You came to set the captive free!! Wrap Your mighty arms around the abused and show them Your love! Father, I ask in the name of Jesus, that You would destroy that site and other pornography establishments without further delay!! Amen!!!
Heavenly Father , We as a nation repent for all the evil that has attacked our innocent children for so many years ! It was well hidden from us and we let it happen forgive us and have mercy om all children in Jesus Christ Name.
Father, dismantle this organization. May those who run it be convicted of sin and be punished for it. Turn their hearts from this grievous sin to you. Protect those whom they abuse and deliver them.
Dear Father, by your awesome power, may PornHub and other sites like it be shutdown. May the money stream that allows these sites to prosper dry up. I fear that many lawmakers are addicted to pornography and that is why they turn a blind eye to it. Many people (myself included) may have told ourselves that viewing pornography is a victimless crime. There is ample proof that this is not the case. Please cause your Holy Spirit to bring spiritual conviction to America and the world regarding the wickedness of pornography and may there be an ever growing movement to stamp it out where ever it is found. May global leaders who protect and encourage pornography and sexual exploitation be exposed and humiliated and may they be replaced with God-fearing public servants. It is time for Your church to stand apart from the world and be purified. Ephesians 5:25 reads “…Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.” May the purpose of Christ be fulfilled today.
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank you for Bill’s prayer for Holy Spirit conviction. We do have no hope without God through Jesus and the Holy Spirit washing is from an evil conscience and setting us in Heavenly Places with our minds renewed. We need the grace of God to live above sin worldwide.
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
