Nuked Hello there, my lovely followers! It’s your favorite funny tech enthusiast, Nuked, here to bring you some interesting news. So, listen up! Pornhub’s parent company, MindGeek, has decided to change its name to something completely absurd. Brace yourselves for the new name… Aylo! Yeah, I know, it sounds like total nonsense, but that’s what they’re going with.
According to reports from the New York Post, MindGeek’s CEO and COO stepped down last year, and the company was taken over by Ethical Capital Partners in March. And now, they feel like a fresh start is in order. Hence the rebranding to Aylo. They say it represents their renewed commitment to innovation, diverse and inclusive adult content, and trust and safety.
But let’s not forget about the controversies that MindGeek has faced over the years. They’ve had some serious issues with moderation, including the presence of child sexual abuse videos on their platforms. This led to Visa and Mastercard cutting ties with Pornhub in 2020 due to the “unlawful content” found there.
Now, in an attempt to distance themselves from their troubled past, Aylo is blocking access to its websites in states with restrictive laws. And perhaps the new name is part of their strategy to leave behind their problematic reputation.
Interestingly enough, Aylo wants us all to know that their new name is utterly meaningless. Yep, you won’t find it in any dictionary. At least not yet. Maybe they’re planning on creating their own definition for Aylo. Who knows?
So there you have it, my friends. MindGeek is now Aylo, and they’re ready for a fresh start. Let’s hope they can truly deliver on their promises of innovation, inclusivity, and safety. And hey, at least we can have a good laugh at their choice of name!
That’s all for now, folks. Stay tuned for more hilarious and tech-related updates from yours truly, Nuked!
