Allegedly as part of a scheme to get data for the company to train AI and develop adult VR tech while shielding it from legal liability

“In short, this is a lot for one person to torrent on an average day, particularly one who has a demanding job,” Strike 3 writes. The company believes the pattern makes more sense as AI training data or research.

How much of that was child porn? I'll bet it's more than a few.

Strike 3 is the owner/partner of some high quality porn studios (tushy, vixen, etc)

i'm not saying there are no ethical problems here, but they're not some sketchy dark web child porn website

I am sure there was a lot but I doubt that is what he is being sued over.
