MindGeek, a privately owned company founded in 2004 and headquartered in Luxembourg, operates a global network of pornographic websites. A significant aspect of the company's operations involves substantial in-house technological development.
On September 12, 2025, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the Utah Division of Consumer Protection announced a settlement with Aylo, the parent company of Pornhub, YouPorn, and Redtube, among other adult websites. The settlement addresses allegations that Aylo allowed illegal and abusive sexual content, including child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and nonconsensual material (NCM), to be uploaded and shared, while misleading users about safety measures. The FTC and the Utah Department of Commerce’s Division of Consumer Protection, represented by the Office of the Utah Attorney General, proposed a consent order with Aylo. As part of the settlement, Aylo agreed to pay $5 million. The FTC stated that preventing the spread of illegal sexually explicit material remains a top priority.
