More than 60 women who say they were forced, defrauded or coerced into making explicit films by San Diego-based GirlsDoPorn are suing the parent company of PornHub and other free adult video sites, claiming “illegal publication of the sex trafficking videos.”

The lawsuit is the second of its kind. In December 2020, nearly 60 women featured in GirlsDoPorn videos sued PornHub’s parent company, which was then known as MindGeek. The two sides settled the suit about a year later on terms that both sides agreed not to disclose. The new lawsuit was filed by 62 new women represented by the same attorneys.
