Pornhub Fined $5 Million Over Child Abuse and Non-Consensual Content

This is because they didn't do a good enough job stopping videos showing child abuse and other videos people didn't agree to be in.
The fine was issued by Utah, a state in the USA.
As part of the agreement, Aylo must now create a system to prevent this illegal content from appearing on their websites.
The U.S. Federal Trade Commission was also involved.
Pornhub's parent company, Aylo, will pay a $5 million penalty.
