Criminal Code 163.1 (2): Every person who makes, prints, publishes or possesses for the
purpose of publication of any child pornography is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment of not more than 14 years and to a minimum punishment of imprisonment of one year.
Child pornography is a problem that has existed ever since pornography has been created and been broadcasted to the public. It’s been illegal since long ago, but still manages to appear on the internet and other sources. Recently, PornHub made changes on the website because of a problem concerning children videos being posted.
Last year, an investigation was brought upon the website. Shockingly, they found out that most of their videos contained underage individuals. Only around 30% of the original content on PH was left after removing all the videos from unverified users. After those allegations, VISA, Mastercard as well as Discover blocked their cards from being
usable on the website, causing PornHub to lose financial income.
