What I don't get is why the fringe community even exists - is there that large of a market of people with porn websites blocked, but youtube not blocked?


Consider that "softcore" porn doesn't exist just because of restrictions, it also serves a market for a certain set of tastes.

I can see someone preferring to watch two attractive women massage each other on YouTube over the content found on porn sites.


People at work?

Other than that, honestly, the only population I can come up with who would be watching these on youtube instead of an actual porn site would be kids.


What would stop kids from going to a porn site anyway? The question whether you're 18+?


School / company network with content blocker?
