It really seems that India has put adult website Pornhub in good use while staying at home during the COVID-19 lockdown, and it despised the fact that Pornhub is officially banned in the nation.
On March 24, the site had made an announcement of offering premium, free adult content for every user across a number of countries. Pornhub has also decided to extend Free Pornhub Premium globally until April 23 while urging people to stay safe and stay home. They have made an outstanding move to give those stuck in the lockdown an "effective" way to pass the time.
Well, India has not left the chance in vain. As per a News18 report, according to the data published by Pornhub on April 2, Indians have been extremely avid in visiting the site since March 24 which is the day the government announced the nationwide lockdown.
The traffic went from 23 percent hike on March 24 way up to a flabbergasting 95 percent increase on March 27. Other countries across the globe also saw a sharp upsurge in desire for adult content on Pornhub, but India recorded the highest spike.
Some are suggesting that the government should reconsider the decision to block these websites instead of implementing a soft ban. In situations like coronavirus outbreak, the ban upliftment will help many to get more sources of entertainment which will keep them at home amid lockdown.
On another hand, the website has not just done this to help flatten the curve with free and premium content. They has announced on their blog that amid the destitute circumstances, they aspired to guarantee the creators of Pornhub that everybody is taking essential precautions, also that payments will be on time and continue as normal.
For the unversed, the website made a contribution of $25,000 to Sex Workers Outreach Project as well as a donation of 15 thousand surgical masks to the frontline fighters in New York City, 15 thousand surgical masks to firefighters.
