BangBros Shuts Down PornWikiLeaks.com, Destroys Data

Posted On 29 Aug 2019
By : Mallory Hall

BangBros has acquired PornWikiLeaks.com — a “site” notorious for doxing performers and other members of the adult industry community — and has shuttered the site.

Now, upon visiting PornWikiLeaks, there is a message from BangBros and a link to a YouTube video that shows what they did with the data.

The message reads as follows, and the video is embedded below.

To our fellow industry peers,

In the current world we live in, as we all know, once it’s on the internet, it’s forever. For too long, this site has unfortunately been a resource for hate, lies, and sensitive information. Many of us have had our real names online for the world to see. Over 15,000 performers real names were listed here. Some had phone numbers, addresses, even family members names posted as well. That type of information wasn’t voluntarily submitted. It was stolen from anyone that had it posted.

BangBros had enough. We have purchased this site with the intention of shutting it down and removing all information associated with it. There’s no catch. No hidden thing to getting your personal stuff off of it. We simply didn’t want it out there for the world to see anymore. Yes, it’s that easy. While shutting this site down doesn’t purge the internet of all possible ties to real names and what not, it does make it one less place to harbor and find these things easily. A forum that had 300,000 posts on it, most of them negative and hate-filled, has now disappeared.

If you had anything ever posted on here, it will be removed and deleted forever from here. As well as BangBros nows owns the domain. Nothing will ever be up here besides this page that you see now. So you don’t have to worry about it coming back either.

This industry has weathered a lot and at the end of the day we rely on each other more than we think. Sure, we all have competitors-BangBros has plenty in itself. But making enemies doesn’t make us a stronger company. Treating others well and innovating does. So our innovation this week, while not groundbreaking, hopes to make the internet a little bit better for all of us involved.

Click here to see what we did to the data.

Nice move, BangBros. The community thanks you. Screengrab by YNOT taken from the video below.
