Porn Fans Pissed At Yahoo!
from the just-can't-win dept
Apparently, Yahoo! just can't win. First, people flip out when they find out that Yahoo! has been selling porn (even though they had been for years before that), and so Yahoo! has to back away from selling porn. Now, porn users are pissed off. They're protesting recent changes that make it harder for people to find the porn groups in Yahoo's clubs feature. I think Salon's method of dealing with this was the best. They basically said (in admittedly very different words): "Porn sells. We need money. We sell porn."
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
