"One day last year, when she was hungry, a woman came up to her and offered what sounded like a dream proposition..."

"... would she like to work in a studio, performing on camera and earning good money, in safety, without anyone touching her? She went to the studio: a block of flats where an administrator registered her. She soon realised everything she had been told was a lie.... For the clients who watched her she was a fantasy: a young Colombian woman in her bedroom they paid handsomely to act out their desires. In reality she was a prisoner. For three months Victoria was held captive with five other women on the eighth floor of a block of flats, forced into violent sexual exploitation, on camera, for at least ten hours a day. Her earnings were stolen by the men who controlled her.... Every time she asked for the money she’d been promised, they told her she had debts that she had to work off first: food she’d eaten, paper towels they’d given her. If she cried and refused to perform, they fined her.... "

From "Inside the world sex-cam capital" (London Times)(describing conditions in CĂșcuta, Colombia).

Paywall.
Suffice it to say - letting in mass illegal immigrants - hurts women and children.

Leftists DO. NOT. CARE.

GatorNavy said...

Yeah, leftists pushed the OnlyFans, Fansly, etc., as girls taking control, sex working for themselves, girl bossing at its finest. You should have heard the old vice cops bitterly laughing up their sleeves.

Joe Rogan and Avi Loeb made an interesting point (#2401). What if AI is purposely corrupting us for its own purposes. This article mentions AI is poised to take over the jobs these sex workers have. That will be 100% guilt free porn which will isolate us even more.

I clicked and was able to read the full article. No paywall. Maybe you didn't click hard enough, Peach. Maybe you didn't want it bad enough. Maybe the machine doesn't respect you anymore because you've developed lackadaisical ways with regard to your device handling...or it's entirely possible there's some other explanation.
Anyway, it's a very depressing article and maybe you're better off having not read it.

Bob - Tried again - as you guilted me into doing. Still cannot get in without giving them an e-mail. I am sick to death of giving out my e-mail.

Peachy said...

tried a fake e-mail. Nope wont' work.
I already know humans are horrible.

Bob Boyd said...

I don't blame you for not giving an email.

Aggie said...

Article was paywalled for me too, but here it is from the archive.

Depressing is right.

Bob Boyd said...

Try giving them the email of someone who has pissed you off.

Peachy said...

Aggie - thanks.
"a large number of bored and lonely men in the US, UK and Europe led to a camming gold rush. "

Bored western men. Ugh.

Peachy said...

Assumed it was about the UK.

Joe Bar said...

Bob- Apparently, i have exhausted my "free" access.

Joe Bar said...

No surprises in that article.

Peachy - you have to throw some tokens the London Times' way to get them to reval more...

What was interesting in this article was this: It ‘s the conversations with the sex worker that draws men back. The conversation, however, is not conducted with the woman but with a moderator who speaks perfect English, is conducting many conversations at the same time and is often a gay man. (In my opinion) a gay man is more attuned to what the buyer is yearning to hear and is also more accepting of the craft of seduction.

Even the executives have fake names.

"I am sick to death of giving out my e-mail."

I won't. It's a bad idea.

Apple allows you to generate an aliased email address. I haven't tried it yet, but I'm planning to.

Yeah i want to know less except possibly the drone coordinates of cucuta

Ethics is a philosophy of moral relativity. There will be collateral damage.

gilbar said...

wait a minute!
are they saying that sex workers don't Love their work?
That's Not what i was told
(can't remember if i was told that by the DNC or Only Fans.. Maybe both?)

Since at least the time of the invention of agriculture, slavery has been pervasive in human civilizations. It is politically expedient to pretend that the only truly pernicious form of slavery arose in connection with the transatlantic slave trade. That is false. Humans have always found ways to coerce people into doing their bidding, and throughout history it is unusual that they have been constrained by ethical norms.
