We explore how the consumption of porn fuels industries that profit from human trafficking and exploitation, and the psychological, relational, and societal consequences of widespread pornography use. We discuss the legal gaps that allow these harms to persist, and what policies need to change to protect vulnerable individuals. We also tackle the role of social media and mainstream platforms in spreading exploitative content and the accountability measures that should be in place.
