The child victims of Pornhub - UPDATE: Mastercard shamed into action over supporting site

Serena K. Fleites, 19, was 14 when a boy she had a crush on asked her to make a naked video and send it to him. She did, and it ended up on Pornhub.
Why does Canada allow this company to profit off videos of exploitation and assault?
This article contains descriptions of sexual assault.
Pornhub prides itself on being the cheery, winking face of naughty, the website that buys a billboard in Times Square and provides snow plows to clear Boston streets. It donates to organizations fighting for racial equality and offers steamy content free to get people through Covid-19 shutdowns.

That supposedly "wholesome Pornhub" attracts 3.5 billion visits a month, more than Netflix, Yahoo or Amazon. Pornhub rakes in money from almost three billion ad impressions a day. One ranking lists Pornhub as the 10th-most-visited website in the world.

Yet there's another side of the company: Its site is infested with rape videos. It monetizes child rapes, revenge pornography, spy cam videos of women showering, racist and misogynist content, and footage of women being asphyxiated in plastic bags. A search for "girls under18" (no space) or "14yo" leads in each case to more than 100,000 videos. Most aren't of children being assaulted, but too many are.

Comment:
UPDATE 06/12/2020: Apparently Mastercard has finally been goaded into investigating Pornhub over report site hosts child abuse videos
The payment network revealed to Reuters on Sunday that it is looking into the claims from a New York Times story that Pornhub is hosting rape videos.

Mastercard previously said it was working with Pornhub's parent company MindGeek to "understand" the situation. The company said that if the accusations - including claims the pornographic website published footage of a 14-year-old girl being abused - are substantiated, it will take "immediate action." This could include withholding payments to Pornhub or even refusing to be in the website's payment network.

The company's investigation follows calls for card companies to withhold payment to the pornographic website over the allegations, including from billionaire Bill Ackman.


"The issue is not pornography but rape. Let's agree that promoting assaults on children or on anyone without consent is unconscionable," the New York Times' Nicholas Kristof wrote in his explosive column.

The reporter celebrated Mastercard's decision on Sunday and also called on Google to "stop driving search traffic to rape videos or sites that host them."

Together but falling apart: 2020 staggers on, each month becoming more bleak and increasingly onerous

In the early winter months we paid scant attention to the Coronavirus story developing in China. And why should we have? After SARS, almost twenty years ago, then minor scares such as Swine Flu, Ebola, Zika Virus, Flesh Eating disease, along with past potential terrors like Avian Flu and Foot and Mouth Disease, there was no reason to think this was anything but another sensationalized false alarm. Indeed, an honest investigation, not even one all that rigorous, could easily have demonstrated that this was the case.

However, the last nine months have been nothing but an absolutely dedicated, well organized and diligent global effort to re-brand the common flu as a devasting pandemic just barely under control.

Sidney Powell and Lin Wood have raised the question of counterfeit election ballots from China.

In an interview with Sean Lin from Brave Hearts, Sidney Powell confirmed that she's collected evidence related to fake Chinese ballots.

"We heard a video of somebody ordering ballots from China. We have evidence of a significant planeload of ballots coming in, and we have a witness that has said that they continue to come in because they intend to run counterfeit ballots in any runoffs or if they need them in recounts, too. So it hasn't stopped," said Powell.

China Whistleblower with Royal Ancestry Steps Forward - Reveals Video, Photos of Alleged Chinese Counterfeit Ballot Printing Operations of US Ballots for MS, FL and NC
Jim Hoft; December 5, 2020 at 12:41pm

As reported last weekend at The Gateway Pundit — video was released on Friday in Mandarin Chinese of a phone call request for fake ballots customized by Chinese factory.

The manufacturer is reportedly in Kwangtung, China.

In the video a caller is heard requesting a bulk order of ballots to ship to the United States.
Here is the video with the translation.

FYI- Our Mandarin speaker confirmed the translation is accurate.

The order was reportedly for 5 million votes.


Two readers noticed that at the 0.54 second mark you can see "Charlotte County Florida" on the ballots.

Here is a sample ballot from Charlotte Votes... https://www.charlottevotes.com/Portals/Charlotte/91-G54.1.pdf?ver=SFazMkgaufsRQWxEDvRYXA

Since our original report we spoke with the creator of this video. His name is Venice.

And the story he told us is explosive!

Here is the original report reported in Taiwan.

Here are more photos of the alleged printing house and samples of the Nor.


Here are templates of the Mississipi counterfeit ballots printed in China.


And Mr. Vinness A. Ollervides confirmed this information during a phone call.

He was also the source for this information.


Vinness who comes from royal bloodline wants this information to get out.

Vinness Ollervides has an amazing life story and background. He studied in the West, speaks six languages, and is a writer and artist. His father died in prison for his role in Xi Jinping's anti-corruption campaign.

Ollervides is now a political activist and the third generation of CCP aristocrat. He is banned from China for his public speech about democracy of Taiwan, Tibet and Manchu.

We are passing this information on to our contacts in the intelligence community.

Next step in government data tracking is the Internet of Things

U. S. government agencies from the military to law enforcement have been buying up mobile-phone data from the private sector to use in gathering intelligence, monitoring adversaries and apprehending criminals.

Now, the U.S. Air Force is experimenting with the next step.

The Air Force Research Laboratory is testing a commercial software platform that taps mobile phones as a window onto usage of hundreds of millions of computers, routers, fitness trackers, modern automobiles and other networked devices, known collectively as the "Internet of Things."

SignalFrame, a Washington, D.C.-based wireless technology company, has developed the capability to tap software embedded on as many as five million cellphones to determine the real-world location and identity of more than half a billion peripheral devices. The company has been telling the military its product could contribute to digital intelligence efforts that weave classified and unclassified data using machine learning and artificial intelligence.

The Air Force's research arm bought the pitch, and has awarded a $50,000 grant to SignalFrame as part of a research and development program to explore whether the data has potential military applications, according to documents reviewed by The Wall Street Journal. Under the program, the Air Force could provide additional funds should the technology prove useful.

A charter jet company CEO pimped out girls as young as 12 to lecherous clients across New York City, advising them to ply the "ghetto rats" with booze and pot to "make them more cooperative," prosecutors said.

Convicted sex offender Paul Alexander, 57, showed utter disdain for his young victims, said authorities.

"(They're) from the Bronx ... the poorest county," he advised his johns, telling them they could win over the girls if they drove them around, fed them and gave them "a couple of dollars," said prosecutors.

Alexander found himself in handcuffs on Thursday when he struck a deal with the wrong client — an undercover cop, authorities said.

A Clark County election worker checks a voting machine among others that are boxed up at the Clark County Election Department in Las Vegas, on Nov. 6.
Voting systems vendors should make U.S. election software open-source for anybody to view and analyze to prevent future manipulation of vote counts, according to Gary Miliefsky, executive producer of Cyber Defense Magazine and a founding member of the Department of Homeland Security.

Voters should be properly authenticated when they register to vote and cast their ballots to prevent election fraud, Miliefsky said on The Epoch Times' "Crossroads" program.

The election gear — the software and hardware — used during this year's election in many cases was connected to the internet, in violation of Federal Election Commission (FEC) regulations enacted in 2014 that bar any internet connectivity, including wireless, Miliefsky said.

He said that at least 30 states used technology that was able to get a software patch or update over the internet, Miliefsky said.

An Oregon doctor who refuses to wear a face mask and compares the coronavirus to the common cold can't practice medicine in the state anymore.

Steven LaTulippe, a family practitioner, closed his clinic in Dallas, after the state's medical board voted Thursday to suspend his license, Portland NBC affiliate KGW reported.

At a Nov. 7 "Stop the Steal" rally, LaTulippe bragged that neither he nor his staff wore masks at clinic, defying the state's order that health-care professionals wear face coverings while treating their patients.

"I want you to know that I never shut down during the entire COVID season. ... I might scare you, but I and my staff, none of us once wore a mask in my clinic," he told the crowd, claiming he hadn't any problems and adding that he wanted to "expose what I call corona mania."

Tear gas and scuffles in Paris as thousands turn out for new 'freedom march' against new security law

Riot police officers take shelter near a burning barricade during a demonstration Saturday, Dec. 5, 2020 in Paris.
Violence has erupted in Paris for a second Saturday as thousands took to the streets across France to denounce the government's new security law.

Most protesters marched peacefully in the French capital before clashes erupted between police and pockets of protesters, most dressed in black, some hooded or with their faces covered.

Many used tools to break up paving stones, which, along with firecrackers and other projectiles, were hurled at police, who responded with tear gas, in a repeat of violent scenes from last weekend's protests against the security law that would restrict publishing pictures of the faces of police.


Comment: The protests were actually much more widespread than the above article suggests:
At least two riot police officers have been injured as demonstrations against the French government's security bill in the city of Nantes descended into violence.

Some 3,000 people in Nantes joined Saturday's nationwide protest action against the draft security policy bill introduced by President Emmanuel Macron's government. The rally mostly went off peacefully, but things started rapidly heating up as evening drew in.

As the rally spilled over into clashes between the demonstrators and police, protesters pelted officers with various projectiles while law enforcement responded with tear gas. The standoff ended up with two riot police officers being injured.

One of them was hit by a Molotov cocktail, according to the Loire-Atlantique prefecture. Both officers were evacuated by an emergency medical service. At least 13 people were arrested following the riots, according to the local authorities.

Over 90 protests against the security bill were held across France on Saturday. Paris saw particularly severe clashes between demonstrators and law enforcement, as groups of protesters smashed windows, burned cars and set barricades on fire.The scuffles ended up in some 30 arrests, according to various reports.

The country has been hit by a wave of protests over legislation introduced by the government and recently approved by the lower house of the French parliament in November. [...]

British policing's Orwellian practice of recording 'non-crime hate incidents' that blacklist children for thoughtcrime must end

A 14-year-old girl has taken police in Britain to court over recording a classroom comment as a 'non-crime hate incident
Something has gone seriously wrong in this country, when the police take it upon themselves to intimidate a 14 year-old schoolgirl by making an official record of her innocuous statement in class.

The girl, known only as Miss B, became a target of police interest because she, along with millions of other people, took the view that sex is distinct from gender identity. At a time when it is increasingly verboten to question trans ideology's claims on the subjectivity of both sex and gender identity, Miss B's views are too often condemned as hatred.

Miss B, who has indicated that she is 'frightened about speaking openly on transgender issues is - along with her parents - seeking legal recourse and challenging the decision of the police to classify her comment as a non-crime hate incident. Her lawyers' letter to the College of Policing states that Miss B is 'concerned about the possibility of having a police record potentially including details of conversations that she has had at school' and fears 'this record would impact on her future career prospects.'

Comment: The police themselves are being subjected to behavioral modification to ensure that this agenda can be furthered without obstruction:
UK police forces want officers to wear LGBT rainbow flags - this virtue-signalling nonsense has to stop
