Brother Kabi is a Muslim influencer and social media influencer who has been involved in the online pornography industry since the early 2000s. In this episode, we discuss his controversial views on alcohol and sex trafficking. We also read an article that exposes the anti-pornography efforts that have been going on since the 1970s.
00:00:03.280When you were there, were you aware that these kinds of things was happening on Pornhub?
00:00:08.060On Pornhub, I mean, these are things that we're not really, unfortunately, able to talk about in too much detail because these are about ongoing litigation.
00:00:18.360So what I'm able to comment on is limited.
00:01:17.180And I was like, SubhanAllah, we're going to look at that and compare what he said in his interview about promoting alcohol or other haram stuff.
00:02:45.380You guys just saw that for yourself, yeah.
00:02:47.080And you can see clearly, he is saying no to alcohol, let alone something worse, which is zina, or prostitution, or whatever you want to call it, yeah.
00:02:58.940Okay, people being exploited, being abused, yes.
00:03:02.740By the way, Corn Hub, we're going to call it that for now.
00:03:05.480Corn Hub was known for that, of the exploitation.
00:03:07.940And not only that, the people being sexually trafficked.
00:03:11.460It is all boiling back to that, inshallah, yeah.
00:03:13.900So here is a video, let's watch, of these co-workers being interviewed by Mr. Patrick Pett, David.
00:03:57.780The story that I still want to get to, zoom in right, okay, second paragraph.
00:04:00.560The article denied a firestorm protest and litigation that deeply impacted an online pornography industry.
00:04:06.040Survivors, an anti-traffic and advocacy organization, many have ties to Christian Wright and anti-pornography efforts of the 1970s and 80s,
00:04:11.660gathered more than 2 million signatures.
00:04:14.700And survivors of the anti-traffic and legal claims of PornHub's parent company, MindGeek, seeking millions of dollars in damages,
00:04:19.700notably Serena Fletez, who was 13 years old when her ex-boyfriend uploaded a sexually explicit video on PornHub,
00:04:26.760brought a novel trafficking lawsuit against Visa.
00:04:29.340She alleged that the credit card company, who's provided MindGeek, its payment networks,
00:04:34.300knowingly monetized these images for profit.
00:04:37.520So, Alexander, you've been there since 2013, right?
00:04:41.220When you were there, were you aware that these kinds of things was happening on PornHub?
00:04:45.480On PornHub, I mean, these are things that we're not really, unfortunately, able to talk about in too much detail
00:04:52.900because these are about ongoing litigation.
00:04:56.080So, what I'm able to comment on is limited.
00:04:59.680So, there's an active litigation going on right now?
00:05:02.540There's lawsuits that relate back to how the site used to be prior to the acquisition.
00:05:07.140And I'm asking you because you've been there since 2013.
00:05:09.380So, I'm kind of glad you're here because how much have you noticed culturally the place changing?
00:05:14.460Because there is no way you're working there and you don't know this is out there, right?
00:05:20.860You would know if you're working there that this is out there.
00:05:23.240I mean, what I can tell you is that I've seen a tremendous evolution in PornHub since I've been there.
00:05:29.120I've been there, like you said, since 2013 in very different capacities.
00:05:32.320Like, when I started there, I was working in social media and customer service.
00:05:36.920So, I can say that I'm, you know, very proud to work for a company where I was able to grow in the way that I have up to an executive level today.
00:05:44.000Unbelievable. I am proud to work and I've worked my way up.
00:05:46.540That's the only thing you're talking about.
00:05:47.300I'm not talking about the sexual abuses, the trafficking and underage girls, etc. being exploited, all that kind of stuff.
00:05:52.660No, I'm so proud to work for a company that I work my way up as a sales manager to where I'm high up now.
00:05:57.200And you've got this Solomon Friedman who is a Zionist, who was a criminal defence lawyer,
00:06:01.360who was defending very weird people who were doing some really paedophilic stuff.
00:06:05.120He was now owning, all of a sudden, PornHub.
00:06:08.040And there he is. And let's just read this article to end on this, forget this guy, yeah?
00:06:11.820And this woman, pathetic, terrible individuals, yeah?
00:06:15.140Okay, let's read this. This is an article about them.
00:06:17.860A rabbi is overseeing PornHub. That's actually not so weird.
