Title: Kotaku and hardcore porn?
Post by: Pugnate on Thursday, March 04, 2010, 03:51:04 PM

WTF? If you see the "fleshbot" link on the Kotaku mainpage it will take you to a website with hardcore porn ads...

It just seems an odd thing to do on a mainstream gaming blog.

Somehow, NSFW doesn't seem like an appropriate warning for fellatio. :P

Kotaku is part of a whole blog site thing. Thats the gaming part, theres porn, automobiles, gadgets, etc.

Yeah, it is not a small site at all, it's part of Gawker, a large blog conglomerate it's owned by Nick Denton - who might as well be the internet's Rupert Murdoch in 10 years time. I kind of try to stay away from Gawker sites for a few reasons, but Denton is very smart and good at what he does.

Make no mistake though, these guys aren't the little guys.
