Has XTube.com Been Hijacked?
 
 
 

xtube

A Queerty reader who is likely violating his employer's office protocols alerts us that XTube.com, your destination for all things free porn, is now redirecting to a spam link landing page instead of hours and hours of SeanCody.com footage. A look at the xtube.com domain name registration shows the domain record was modified yesterday, but we've yet to see any reports on the web.

The same thing recently happened with Dudevu.com I wonder if the powers-that-be are cracking down on porn servers.

Gaywatch.com is pretty good. They have full length high quality vids. It's just not as easy to search. Have fun :P

Some porn company probably paid them to shut down, they've got to be killing the retail porn business.

I wouldn't be surprised if X-tube decided to cave in and sell while there is still something there to get. In order to stay in business (or online) they too had to sell something (they did have advertisements on their site) and there is where the "problem" was.

If porn advertisement has shrunk for both print and online sites why would upstarts (or desperate established companies) keep advertising on a site where if it isn't free people are not going to watch (nor click on). They stopped paying and the people at X-Tube surely were not going to keep sitting at a desktop updating things and not get paid. Something had to give.

It's all about money regardless of how "free" it is. Keep in mind if you want to download a clip off of free sites you have to be a paid member. What does that tell you?

who ever or whatever happened to the xtube web site owes me small amount of $ from my account, and the suedo site thats in its place should try something ethical like disclosing itself or providing something comparable to the former instead of the same ol garbage – like dido, dido, dido, . so much for net nuetrality more like net neutered ality

I like gayforit. With a neat little trick you can watch all their videos (block the cookies… child's play)
