“Money Shot: The Pornhub Story,” according to an Insider report.In the documentary, he explained that he and about 30 other moderators were tasked with watching 800 to 1,000 videos during an eight-hour shift at the Cyprus office of MindGeek, Pornhub’s parent company, and were left to “guess” the ages of the people in the sexually explicit clips. “Many videos that should have been taken down stayed up for months,” he admitted in the documentary, which will be available to stream on Wednesday.“We were scrubbing through the videos as fast as we could.

Even if we thought we were being diligent we missed videos every now and then,” he continued. The unnamed employee also shared that he and his co-workers were left to “guess” if a person on the screen was at least 18 years old. “You can’t tell the age of somebody — they could be 14 or they could be 19.

We would have to guess,” he said reiterating that it’s “really hard” to determine someone’s age from one clip. “Basically, we would just guess then my manager would decide if the video would be taken down for good, or if it would go live again,” he continued. “The rules constantly changed.” He also revealed that the moderators often reviewed clips without sound, which lawyer Dani Pinter, Senior Legal Counsel at the National Center on Sexual Exploitation, noted would mean that “he wouldn’t hear if someone was screaming or saying ‘Stop.’”“I think the company could have done more to prevent certain things and only changed some things after it got in trouble,” the former employee told the filmmakers.
