This blipped on some news site ... I suppose it had to happen. I have not 'had a root' around it but I dare say it is full of the same sort of stuff.

Porn industry to tear itself apart Wikipedia style ... www.pornwikileaks.com ... so this is where they have all been honing and boning their skills before importing them to the Wikipedia.

Now can we just outsource the entire collection of porn categories in child friendly Wikipedia to pornwikileaks.com?


And, yes, they have just trod in the poo-poo that is the "Gays who control the porn industry" and I dare say there is a "Jews who control the porn industry" page too.

Would someone with a stronger stomach than me check for Wikipedia cross-posters?

The adult film industry is up in arms over 'Porn WikiLeaks' -- a new site offering the real names, birth dates and other private information belonging to more than 15,000 adult actors and actresses.

As Gawker reported last week, Porn WikiLeaks obtained this information from a patient database at an STD testing clinic in California. In addition to the porn stars' real names, the leaked database from the Adult Industry Medical Healthcare Foundation (AIM) contained their home addresses, information on their family members, and copies of their state ID cards. Most entries posted to Porn WikiLeaks feature only an actor's name, date of birth and stage name -- basic, but potentially disastrous information for any ex-performer looking to hide his or her past. Some entries go much further.

Etc etc etc ...

I took a quick look. Only recognized a single username (KylerCoy) who was trying to drive traffic to their blog on WP and is blocked on PornWikiLeaks for removing the (presumably) real name of a performer.

Based on my experience with this on WP, I believe much of the gay porn content is added by people involved in the industry, most of the non-Asian straight porn content is added by fans, and the niche stuff is added by people with whom you probably wouldn't want to be trapped in an elevator.

I doubt there is a lot of cross-over here. PornWikiLeaks seems to be an attempt to shame people who are performing in porn movies, which is pretty misguided since if anyone in the porn industry is a victim, it would be the performers. When the people behind PornWikiLeaks are revealed, I have no doubt they will be evangelical Christians.
