NEW YORK – (August 28, 2024) Pornhub, the premier online destination for adult entertainment, the upcoming second season of Terms of Service, a podcast series on censorship and the politics of free speech, co-hosted by Asa Akira, Pornhub brand ambassador and acclaimed adult star, and Alex Kekesi, Pornhub’s Head of Brand and Community.

A special live episode, Terms of Service Presents: Digital Futures: Safety, Privacy, and Expression Online, featuring Stormy Daniels, Anna Delvey, Elizabeth Nolan Brown and Nimay Ndolo, will be recorded on September 12th and released later in the season. As digital censorship, restrictive legislation, and algorithmic bias increasingly threaten free expression, Stormy Daniels will be joined by panelists Ana Delvey, Nimay Ndolo and Elizabeth Nolan Brown, to explore these urgent issues and envision the future of our digital lives. Presented by Pornhub in a salon-style format, the event builds on the adult industry’s legacy of fostering open dialogue on critical topics. Discussions will cover surveillance and privacy, the intersection of AI and intellectual property, and how new technologies are reshaping our relationships with our bodies, sexuality, and identities. Co-hosted by Asa Akira and Alex Kekesi, and moderated by writer and scholar Dr. Esra Soraya Padgett, the discussion promises a bold dialogue of what lies ahead for our digital futures.

These conversations echo the broader mission of the Terms of Service podcast. In its second season, the podcast will continue to offer unfiltered discussions on censorship issues impacting the adult industry and beyond. With topics ranging from deplatforming and cancellation to discrimination in the financial, banking, and housing sectors, the series also addresses privacy concerns amidst the ongoing debate surrounding age verification laws.

“In our steadfast commitment to advocate for sex workers, ‘Terms of Service’ is an important platform for Pornhub to spotlight the distinct challenges the adult industry faces as well as how so many issues pertaining to porn also branch out into pop culture,” said Alex Kekesi, Pornhub’s Head of Brand and Community.“The sex work community often leads the way in identifying pivotal rights issues with far-reaching consequences. This season, one such issue we’ll be discussing is the widespread privacy and safety risks posed by the current age verification laws."

"I'm excited to continue having discussions that both stimulate and challenge," said Asa Akira, Pornhub brand ambassador. "Throughout our journey, collaborating with Alex has underscored what an important ally she is to the sex work community. I'm looking forward to shedding light on topics that still linger in the shadows, while providing our listeners with insider perspectives that resonate within the adult world and beyond."
