LOS ANGELES, CA — (08-29-19) — In a move that is sure to ease the concerns of adult film performers, BangBros announced that they have acquired the controversial PornWikiLeaks website.
The site over the years made a reputation for posting personal information about adult film performers and their families, with the sole purpose of causing havoc for its own entertainment.
PornWikiLeaks New Owners Shutdown Website for Good
Now when visitors click on to the PornWikiLeaks website, they will find a mission statement from BangBros.
BangBros Official Statement Now Live on PornWikiLeaks
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 100,000 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 now 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.
