    Everybody is still going to know it’s them, and I don’t think they can get respectable engineers to work for them. There really isn’t any prestige in working there.

    They should at least expanded to have another site up for general SFW video content to compete with youtube and produce originals, since they clearly have the tech for it.

      You can work on a porn site without seeing any porn. IIRC Pornhub’s test site doesn’t contain any porn so their engineers can work normally, just like those engineers who work on CSAM detection and reporting system never actually see any CSAM themselves.
