Thothub was a widely used website where unregistered and registered users could upload, share, and view various types of adult content and sexually explicit material. Thothub consisted of a cocktail of videos, information, and other r-rated materials uploaded by users, as well as hosting links to third party websites.
Thothub claimed to uphold in its Terms; Conditions page that material uploaded by users cannot be copyrighted, post advertisements or impersonate other individuals. After you agree to the terms and conditions, you have access to an abundance of material that you can discover by searching various categories, models, channels, albums, communities, or even ranking material from most viewed or latest postings.
With a myriad of R-rated content, users were able to easily find new content that met their interests or find new models to follow.
Thothub Alternative Sites
Below are my favorite sites since Thothub is no longer accessible.
PremiumX
After subscribing to the website, PremiumsX offers users the best content from female models in the porn industry. PremiumsX boasts that their 5 models provide weekly updated Snapchat nudes posts and content for you so that you don’t have to spend time searching forum boards only to find fake adult content.
StripChat
StripChat is a highly rated international website and social network that include free live webcam performances from adult entertainers that include nudity and sexual activity. Although a relatively new adult camming site, it has over one thousand women ready to broadcast live.
Chaturbate
This popular adult camming website called Chaturbate is divided into six categories: female cams, male cams, couple cams, transgender cams, spy shows, and private shows. Joining a spy or private show requires payment but the other categories are completely free to watch. Although you can watch for free, you can request different sexual acts by tipping the cammers.
PremiumsXXX
PremiumsXXX is another website where real models provide high-quality uncensored content to paying subscribers. The models are continually posting Snapchat porn content so the user can expect fresh images and videos and know they aren’t being scammed with fake or outdated material. You can choose between different subscription plans and immediately start consuming content.
Adult Friend Finder
Adult Friend Finder prides itself on being the ‘World’s Largest Sex and Swinger Community.’ On this casual hookup site, you can search for whatever type of sexual encounter you want, whether it be threesomes, swingers parties, gay-sex, or cybersex. If you aren’t looking for an immediate meet-up, you can also find live adult webcam shows.
WellHello
Users flock to WellHello for no strings attached fun. You skip the small talk because users go on there for the same reason and know what each other expects. You can sign up as a male, female, or couple, and after a quick registration start chatting with people who are ready for a hot meetup.
FuckBook
FBA is a free social networking platform where you may skip the tedious chatter and get right to business. This website makes it easy to meet with people who are interested in just casual hookups and friends with benefits. After uploading your profile photo, you are given the option to link your account to Facebook and see who in your network is also looking for an NSA arrangement.
Ashley Madison
Ashley Madison is one of the original platforms for casual arrangements and discreet affairs. It was initially created for married individuals who wanted extramarital affairs, but now it spans way beyond that. The website exhibits features that make the online experience pleasurable, such as the ability to blur one’s photo for greater discreteness or send Quick Reply messages.
What Happened To Thothub?
Social media has created a whole new way for individuals to make a living by being influencers, but this comes at a risk. As influencers rise to notoriety on platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and OnlyFans, there’s much more opportunity for their content to be poached or for their identities to be copycatted.
A prominent OnlyFans creator, Niece Waidhofer, fell victim to this and is now suing Thothub.
On August 5th, the Thothub homepage shut down and was substituted with a solar system and email address. This occurred days after the OnlyFans creator, Niece Waidhofer filed a lawsuit against Thothub.
Waidhofer, who’s obtained an Instagram following of over two million, ran an OnlyFans account where images lived behind a paywall. She sells her semi-nude images on OnlyFans to subscribers for a monthly fee of $14.99 per month. Shockingly to her, she noticed her private images turning up all over Thothub.
Waidhofer began suing Thothub after the site had allegedly not stuck to copyright-related takedown demands. Attorney Brett. S. Rosenthal from the law firm Reese Marketos made the claim that the incident caused monetary and reputational harm to Waidhofer because her published and unpublished content had been strewn across the internet and seen by millions of viewers for free.
Although the site was shut down, the lawsuit will continue to be pursued.
Was Thothub Illegal?
The platform itself was not illegal, however, allowing pirated content from OnlyFans creators and other private adult entertainers’ portfolios became an issue of law. Thothub allowed users to upload media that was not their own and was not public content.
The issue is a copyright infringement and nonconsensual use of private materials. This appears to be a common issue throughout many social platforms, YouTube video creators being another community that frequently falls victim to this legal undermining.
As part of the current lawsuit against Thothub, Niece Waidhofer and her legal team are suing other adult platforms such as Chaturbate and BangBros for advertising on Thothub because those sites, therefore, fund Thothubs business.
The lawsuit alleges that these companies violated the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act (RICO) by engaging in “intentional and willful conduct in service of the criminal enterprise. This includes extortion and copyright infringement.
What is OnlyFans?
OnlyFans is a content subscription service where content creators earn money from people who subscribe to their content. OnlyFans is most popular amongst sex workers, but other categories such as physical fitness experts and musicians have also taken advantage of the platform.
A subscriber (or fan) on OnlyFans can view an individual account’s content in exchange for a monthly fee. A fan may also pay a set amount of money for requested images or videos.
OnlyFans has recently caught the attention of various celebrities who are using it as an additional means of income. Many influencers on social media apps such as TikTok and Instagram have also begun to find a lot of monetary value in OnlyFans by transferring their followers to the service.
What is Patreon?
Similar to OnlyFans, Patreon lets you pay for your favorite online content creators in exchange for exclusive material, the power to give suggestions, early access to new work, and ad-free content. Creators have the option to charge a fixed fee for completed work rather than a monthly payment plan.
Unlike OnlyFans, Patreon does not have a primary focus on sex workers and adult content.
Creators can create different subscription tiers, with the more expensive ones gifting the subscriber with more perks. Patreon is a great way to not only support a creator or artist you adore but also gain exclusive content and insights.
