I don’t think so. There’s a whole spectrum between exhibitionist amateurs, those who earn some money to finance their kinky hobby (new video equipment, lingerie, sextoys…) and freelancers who end up making a living working from home, producing the same content week after week.

You do know that Ajlo (used to be called mindgeek) owns most of the big studios as well as porn hub. Then there are a few medium sized companies like sarj that own hustler and met art and paper streat media that own teamskeet. There are not that many companies.
