A federal judge ruled Friday that it is reasonable to infer that payment processor Visa knowingly helped Pornhub “monetize child porn” and denied its motion to dismiss the claim that it violated California’s Unfair Competition Law.
District Judge Cormac Carney of the U.S. District Court of the Central District of California wrote in his ruling on July 29 that “Visa knew that MindGeek’s websites were teeming with monetized child porn.”
