Does an international porn site like Pornhub take accents into account with their algorithm? Does an Australian watching Pornhub porn tend to get more porn with Australian accents than an American?

You're viewing a single thread.
I think it goes by IP address of both the viewer and the uploader.
Australians are more likely to upload videos with Australian accents, and those are more likely to be shown to people in Australia. And they watch them, so viewership increases within the Australian market, so the algorithm continues down that line.
[...], and those are more likely to be shown to people in Australia.
Maybe not, some sites have uploader controlled geoblocking so they can exclude their home region.
Oh, interesting! I wonder if that blocks the entire country, or just the region. And no, I'm not opening that link at work, lol
Once you’ve become a Verified Model on Pornhub, you have the option to block certain countries, American states, and Canadian provinces from viewing your Pornhub and Modelhub profile and videos.
Ahaha awesome, thanks.
Looks like it wouldn't work well in Australia unless the models are not very privacy-conscious...lol
There are around 27 million people in Australia so it would be roughly comparable to blocking Florida (22 million) or Texas (30 million).
Didn't Texas try and block themselves from pornhub?
It was pornhub that blocked Texas (and several other states). Other sites have done the same. Due to new laws making it risky to distribute in those states.
They successfully did, age verification is now a thing for all adult content.
So they effectively made a VPN a requirement. Nice.
That, or just find the sites that haven't bent the knee.
