GirlsDoPorn case is somewhat surprising to me because I think US regulators failed to prevent abuse of protentional and eventual victims of this porn company. The company was active from 2009 to 2020 and they only stopped their business when they ended up in court. Why weren't they earlier under legal scrutiny and why wasn't their license to do porn revoked? And it seems like most of this girls didn't have any legal advice or assistance prior, during and after of signing contracts with GirlsDoPorn. Imo amateur porn is fishy and should be more regulated.


“Amateur porn” is regulated, by the same laws in fact. People hosting such content for commercial gain are expected to obtain sufficient documentation of the performers identity, age, and consent, so as to not be liable under such laws.

As with most laws, the level to which they are enforced correctly and complied with varies.
