MODERATORS
Pornhub being the foundation of the internet may be seen as controversial by some.
Maybe not specifically PH but porn actually always was the driving force for the net since day 1. We don't have high speed net now because someone needed to download a linux-distro quicker. Or google harder. YouTube and vimeo and such came waaaaaaay later. There also were no social media where people needed to upload large dog-pics. It was porn. Everyone wanted their tits to download NOW not somewhere in the future.
And I vividly remember the times where you had to wait for a long while to see your image grow line by line until you finally maybe saw said tit, and it surely - and hopefully - wasn't a bird ๐
I have no studies at hand but I'd bet part of my left nut on that theory. Hence I found that image concluding.
The Internet is for Porn
That it is!
Uh, I haven't seen this video for 20 years, almost forgot it.
Haha yeah it's super old. That was the first video I'd seen with that avenue q song. So I always think of it when I hear it. Lol
Good thing that kinky images grow more arousing as you go downwards
I'd put yt under ph, but only just. Everything else, ph paved the way. And tbf, another porn site probably cleared the way for yt, though I couldn't tell you which one.
I remember the first time I saw the phrase "streaming video" was a website called "teen steam" (which I desperately wanted a credit card to access) in the late 90s / early 2000s.
I'm sure you can guess what the content of that site was and I was sure that "streaming" was some new sex act I had yet to discover and wanted very much to find out. Sadly I was too young, too poor and logged onto the Internet in the school library at lunch time so it was always going to be a long shot.
Haha I remember that time too well. Luckily I had a CC and I bought everything on the net back then and was so fascinated by it. Typing a number in and getting stuff. I ordered crap from the other side of the world, it was incredible. Yes, porn included. How could one resist that temptation back then, I was 12 or so ๐
How did you obtain the CC and the money on it at 12??
Might've been 14, I don't really remember exactly. And it was the CC attached to my company's bank-acc so the bank wasn't that nitpicky. It were simpler times in many aspects. But the fascination of online-shopping only grew slightly less great in my 30s ๐
Unironically, a lot of tech improvements started to make/view porn better.
Example: 3D models improvements.
In the end, possibly the one good thing to come out of Overwatch.
