It seems like the public health crisis has inspired a large portion of people to hit up the porn spot 😩
On a normal day, Pornhub says they have roughly 120 million visitors, but traffic to their site has spikes to almost 134 million — and many of them are explicitly searching for coronavirus porn. Pornhub reports that statisticians have recorded more than 9 million searches containing either “corona” or “covid” in the last 30 days, a figure that peaked on March 5 with 1.5 million searches. Since things got more serious, they say that fewer people have been searching for coronavirus porn, but the number hasn’t dwindled entirely: on March 16, the site logged 427,504 searches for sexy COVID-19 content.
Pornhub revealed that worldwide traffic to the site has increased by 11.6% as people begin to self-quarantine and work from home in order to prevent the spread of coronavirus.
