While it seems like the porn industry takes over many industries, virtual reality may take the cake. While we are still in the early stages of the VR industry, the adult side of things has already begun to infiltrate the space. In fact, VR porn searches have increased a staggering 10,000% over the last 20 months alone, and the trend does not seem to be letting up any time soon.

Highly religious people in the U.S. may have a love-hate relationship with online pornography, but new research suggests they don’t want to admit it. A study published June 2 in Sexual Addiction & Compulsivity: The Journal of Treatment & Prevention aimed to find out how people who self-identified as very religious (based on how they rated the importance of religion in their lives and the degree of their religiosity) would react to paradoxical findings about religious individuals’ porn use.

Anti-pornography groups have succeeded in their efforts to get Starbucks and McDonald's to block porn on the chains' Wi-Fi networks. Earlier this year McDonald's (MCD) responded by putting filters in place at most of its U.S. restaurants, a change that was disclosed this week. The company had already had the filtering in place at its U.K. restaurants.

Megaupload.org used to be where you'd go to access the vast amount of films hosted by Kim Dotcom's Megaupload service. But once Dotcom was hit with US criminal charges, that site and many others were grabbed by the FBI, and visiting them produced nothing but a government seizure banner. No longer. Today, a visit to Megaupload.org (NSFW) brings up what can only be described as softcore porn.

Nearly 800,000 emails, passwords and usernames attributed to accounts on the Brazzers porn site forum have been leaked. Originally reported to Motherboard by vigilante.pw, a breach monitoring watchdog, the hack contained over 900,000 individual records. Aside from inactive or duplicate accounts, that meant some 790,724 unique email addresses, usernames and plaintext passwords are now out in the ether.

The Dirk Diggler Story is a 1988 mockumentary short film written and directed by Paul Thomas Anderson. It follows the rise and fall of Dirk Diggler, a well-endowed male porn star.

Want to know why we can’t have nice things? Because apparently, the public — or at least parts of New York — is not to be trusted. Eight months after the appearance of the first LinkNYC hubs, which are — or were — internet kiosks meant to help bring the Big Apple into the 21st century, the city has taken a step back. Some of these kiosks were not used to “save data on their mobile plans, call relatives across the country, and get a much-needed quick charge” as they were originally intended. Instead, they were used to watch pornography.

Pornhub and YouPorn, the biggest adult websites in the world, have been blocked in Russia. And things have become very odd. The site has been blocked by the Russian state watchdog Roskomnadzor, which is known in English as the Federal Service for Supervision of Communications, Information Technology and Mass Media. Among other things, that agency is in charge of monitoring the internet and blocking sites that the government doesn’t want to be used.

Trump breaks a bottle of champagne on a Playboy-branded limo while several of the Playmates are visiting New York City. “Beauty is beauty, and let’s see what happens with New York,” Trump says. Donald Trump made an appearance in an explicit 2000 Playboy video.

BuzzFeed News obtained the footage from the online-only Buffalo, New York–based video store Cinema Cornucopia.

While the Internet has made porn ubiquitous, it has also thrown the industry into severe decline. By Katrina Forrester.

CNN denied airing 30 minutes of inappropriate content on Thursday night after initially blaming local cable television provider RCN for the mishap, the network clarified on Friday. "The RCN cable operator in Boston aired inappropriate content for 30 minutes on CNN last night,” the network said in their original statement. “CNN has asked for an explanation."

Two lawyers were charged Friday with a "massive extortion scheme" in which they uploaded X-rated films to file-sharing sites, sued the people who downloaded them — and collected millions from victims who feared public humiliation, prosecutors said. Paul Hansmeier and John Steele actually produced some of the pornography, solely for the purpose of copyrighting it so they could file "sham lawsuits" used to shake down their targets, Minnesota U.S. Attorney Andrew Luger said.

A Virginia lawmaker has filed a bill that would declare pornography a public health hazard in Virginia. State Delegate Bob Marshall, (R-Prince William), proposed the bill that says porn leads to social problems, such as hypersexualization of teenagers and normalizes violence and abuse of women and children. The bill does not call for a porn ban, only the need for education, research, and policy change to address the “public health crisis.”

Pornhub dropped its annual yearly review and it appears Windows users had their hands full throughout 2016 – but not with work.

An attack on the Dark Web left a whopping 20 percent of it in shambles. On Friday, a vigilante managed to hack into Dark Web hosting service, Freedom Hosting II, after realizing that it was allowing child pornography sites. As first reported by the Verge, visitors to more than 10,000 sites on Friday saw not their expected content, but rather a message that read, “Hello, Freedom Hosting II, you have been hacked.”

It might come as a shock but there is now a strong demand for Donald Trump to get into porn. So much so that adult entertainment giant xHamster is running a competition to find the sex industries answer to the president for a string of parodies. The porn site has been hunting for entrants with 'unique hair' and 'small hands' since November and says it has received "many" submissions.

The Russian government has blocked porn site Brazzers over claims it is damaging to the “human psyche”.  Roskomnadzor, the country’s media watchdog, blacklisted the site, preventing access from Russian servers.  It follows a ruling by a district court in the Samara region that Brazzers has a “negative impact” and “violated citizens’ rights”, reports the TJ Journal.

A Dallas ISD teacher who was fired because she acted in adult films more than a decade ago says she was forced into “sex slavery” and is fighting to get back her dream job helping children. Resa Woodward, 38, taught sixth-grade science at an all-girls STEAM academy at Balch Springs Middle School before she was removed from the classroom in November. She was fired after her past in adult films was exposed on social media. She is appealing her termination to the Texas Education Agency.

A lonely Japanese man who amassed more than six tons of porn died when a huge pile of magazines fell on top of him. And even more tragically, the man's body was only discovered six months later when the landlord entered the flat to find out why the rent had not been paid. The man's lowly death was revealed by a member of the cleaning team, who said his company had been hired to remove the magazines discreetly in a way that would not be noticed by neighbours and the man's family to save them from the shame.
