Why XVideos content spreads quickly

XVideos has limited automated moderation compared to Pornhub. NCII content frequently remains live for longer periods, and re uploads under different titles are common.

Israel legal framework

Prevention of Sexual Harassment Law 5758-1998, amendment 2014 adding subsection 3(a)(5A) on publication of sexual photographs, films or recordings. Up to 5 years imprisonment for the publication offence (treated as a felony).

The civil erasure right under Protection of Privacy Law 5741-1981 right to erasure is enforceable against XVideos regardless of where XVideos processes the data, where the data subject is in Israel.
