One day in early September, we’re arguing about how to identify a minor on one of the most visited porn sites in the world. This is an important skill for the international crew of volunteer moderators at xHamster: it’s their job to vet new picture uploads for any nude images of people under 18.
+
Videos by VICE One member of the discussion is "Holger", a user created by VICE News to infiltrate the content moderation team and observe its inner workings. Holger finds himself in a team of over 100 unpaid, voluntary workers called "the Reviewers Club", which means he has partial control over which photos stay online and which are taken down. Anyone can anonymously upload photos, videos or erotic short stories to the platform. These decisions impact millions worldwide - xHamster is currently the 22nd most visited website globally, making it more popular than eBay.
+
New content means new work for the voluntary deletion team. Equipped with a 480-word manual explaining which images are permitted and which are not, the Reviewers Club click their way through thousands of new photos every day. For reasons xHamster declined to share, paid employees are now tasked with checking videos. The moderators do their work anonymously on their own private xHamster accounts, and xHamster only knows them by their usernames.
+
As members of xHamster’s content moderation team, we sifted through content for several weeks, studying the platform’s internal rules and speaking to others on the team. VICE News found that xHamster explicitly asks moderators to wave through content they have considerable legal doubts over. If they think something should be taken down, they’re required to be 100 percent sure it violates xHamster’s (often questionable) rules before flagging it.
+
Photos of suspected minors, illegal in many countries, are screened in a process that is incomplete at best. The moderators receive no money, no individual training and very little support from xHamster administrators. Images that appear to have been uploaded without the subject’s consent are also waved through. Our research shows how little xHamster seems to invest in protecting victims from digital exploitation, such as revenge porn.
+
Curious to discover why people would do this often harrowing job for free, we asked some of Holger’s colleagues. He told us the rules aren’t clear enough to make the call on some images. Niklas*, 19, from Germany, says he checks for underage photos simply because they are "forbidden", and he’d like to protect other members from seeing them.
+
Perhaps unsurprisingly, others do the job to indulge in a personal interest. xHamster is his favourite porn site, and a place he’s spent countless hours. Bryan*, a janitor from London, has been a reviewer for just a few weeks. "I wanted to experience something new." "I am addicted to porn and sex," he said.
+
His colleague Luke*, 20, from Singapore, also joined because he thought the job would grant him certain "privileges", like access to private profiles and content on the site. Luke has videos with titles like Hot Teen Shower 4 and Changing room voyeur uploaded to his account. In his profile, he asks if anyone knows the woman in his profile picture and where he can find more content featuring her.
+
VICE News emailed 67 questions to xHamster and received brief, general statements avoiding many of the issues raised. "Rest assured that controls and checks exist," he said, without addressing the issues we had identified with those controls and checks. They wouldn’t comment on problems with the deletion rules, despite follow-ups. "We cannot get into specifics of our internal checking for a number of reasons," wrote Alex Hawkins, Vice President of xHamster, arguing it could give people ideas about how to circumvent the system.

In its terms of use, xHamster paints a pretty idyllic picture of online pornography. Whether or not they’re asked to show proof of that consent is another question. Content uploaders and explicitly told they need the "written consent, release, and/or permission of each and every identifiable person in your submission".
+
As well as copyright infringements, all uploads which are "unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, (…) or otherwise objectionable" are prohibited. In addition, xHamster emphasises in bold capital letters: "WE HAVE A ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY FOR PORNOGRAPHIC MATERIAL INVOLVING MINORS."

Inside xHamster: the content moderation team’s workplaceTo get into the Reviewers Club, you need two things: patience and nude photography. Users can apply by email, once they have been a member of the platform for 200 days or more. To pass this test, we commissioned a sex worker to take part in our research \ No newline at end of file
