<p>Do you prefer your porn with a side of malware? <a href="http://betabeat.com/2013/04/your-favorite-porn-sites-are-giving-your-computer-digital-stds/">According</a> to one British researcher, users who visit popular porn sites like PornHub and xHamster have a 42 percent chance of contracting digital STDs (a.k.a. malware) on their computers. Naturally, online porn purveyors sites <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-22153527">did not take kindly</a> to the study, which they say overinflated the risk.</p>
<p><!--more-->PornHub called it "grossly exaggerate(d)," and xHamster said that while it has suffered from malware issues in the past, it's worked hard to find reliable advertising partners that don't infect your computer.</p>
<p>Just remember, folks: your computer can contract a digital STD even from browser-on-infected-ad contact.</p>

<p>Bad news for the porno pervs among us (a.k.a. <a href="http://betabeat.com/2013/04/survey-finds-36-percent-of-americans-dont-watch-porn-and-are-total-liars/">everyone</a>).

<p><!--more-->Researcher Conrad Longmore <a href="http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/popular-porn-websites-host-adverts-with-malware-8568608.html">told</a> <em>The Telegraph</em> that a number of ads on popular streaming sites like xHamster and PornHub can automatically install malware on your computer. Mr. Longmore said that the sites aren't purposefully hosting malware, but because the process for buying and packaging ads is so complex, they're likely running malicious ads without being aware of it.</p>
<p>Mr. Longmore <a href="http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/popular-porn-websites-host-adverts-with-malware-8568608.html">found</a> that xHamster, for example, has malicious advertising on 5 percent of its content. Since the average user looks at 10 pages per visit, that gives them a 42 percent chance of contracting malware from the site.</p>
<p>Think Bill Gates would give us <a href="http://betabeat.com/2013/03/bill-gates-will-grant-you-100000-to-invent-a-next-gen-condom/">grant money</a> for a condom that protects against digital STDs?</p>

<p>When it comes to advertising, it's hard out there for a porn company--not that one of the Internet's biggest porn websites really <em>needs</em> to advertise itself. As all those pearl-clutchy "<a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=vine+%2B+%22porn+problem%22&amp;oq=vine+%2B+%22porn+problem%22&amp;aqs=chrome.0.57j60l3j59j60.5926&amp;sourceid=chrome&amp;ie=UTF-8#q=vine+%2B+%22porn+problem%22&amp;hl=en&amp;tbo=u&amp;source=univ&amp;tbm=nws&amp;sa=X&amp;ei=MC4IUfu4GYW3rAeo7oCYCA&amp;ved=0CDAQqAI&amp;bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_cp.r_qf.&amp;bvm=bv.41524429,d.bmk&amp;fp=57367e808a8d5648&amp;biw=1422&amp;bih=777">Vine's Porn Problem</a>" posts will tell you, porn is everywhere on the Internet, and most of those NSFW videos can be viewed on PornHub, a popular adult video streaming site.</p>
<p>Now, BuzzFeed <a href="http://www.buzzfeed.com/jpmoore/pornhubs-rejected-g-rated-super-bowl-ad">reports</a> that PornHub has created a totally SFW Super Bowl ad, only to have it harshly <a href="http://www.pornhub.com/event/superbowl">rejected</a> by the bigwigs at CBS. (We've reached out to CBS in order to independently verify that it rejected the ad.)</p>
<p><!--more-->The adorable ad features an elderly couple happily sitting on a bench. That's basically it. Then the Pornhub logo flashes on the screen at the end. Sure, kids could presumably see that and Google "Pornhub," but we'd argue it would be one of the least offensive Super Bowl ads (lookin' at you, GoDaddy).</p>
<p>Pornhub has created a (SFW) <a href="http://www.pornhub.com/event/superbowl">website</a> where users can vote on whether or not the ad should've been rejected; so far 82 percent of people agree the ad should air.</p>

<p>Break out the champagne, guys! According to a <a href="http://www.pornwatchers.com/content/statistics11-2012/">report</a> published by porn search engine PornWatchers.com, humans have successfully watched 1.2 million years worth of porn since 2006. Congratulations, humanity.</p>
<p><!--more-->The caveat? That number accounts for just two of the Internet's favorite porn sites, XHamster and YouPorn. What of PornHub or RedTube or XTube? Surely if we counted those, and also all of the weird fetish sites, that number would be at <em>least</em> tripled. So proud of us right now.</p>
<p>The report also states that the platforms have reached 93 billion views, which equals approximately 15 views for each human on earth. There have also been 158 million ratings and 8 million comments, a number so large that it kind of defeats the theory that only weirdos <a href="https://twitter.com/BESTPORNCOMMENT">comment</a> on porn videos.</p>
<p>If you're going to any holiday parties tonight, make sure you have a proper toast: <em>To porn. To us</em>. Cheers!<em><br />
