Porn 2.0 is a term derived from "Web 2.0" that describes pornographic websites featuring amateur content and interactive social networking features, such as user-generated categorization, webcam hosting, blogs, and comment sections. This is in contrast to the static content offered by "Web 1.0" porn sites. Porn 2.0 sites may offer features similar to mainstream Web 2.0 services such as video communities, including Meta café, Vimeo, and YouTube, as well as social sites, (Tumblr and Twitter), general blogging platforms, (Blogger, Daily Booth, and Lookbook.nu) and photo hosting services (Flickr, Photobucket, and Picasa).

Since their inception, Porn 2.0 sites have gathered great popularity but have encountered various legal and other difficulties. Among these difficulties are concerns about digital content copyright, trade media, and affiliating partnership advertising. Other concerns include the idea of sharing versus privacy and the legal ramifications of large quantities of free, amateur pornographic content on the Internet.

Monetization

Unlike Web 2.0 ventures such as Meta Platforms, Myspace, or YouTube, Porn 2.0 was initially unable to find a strategy that proved to be commercially profitable. High server costs from hosting the large amount of amateur content paired with little to no model income put Porn 2.0 websites in a challenging financial position. Because Porn 2.0 services were initially free of charge to users, the only source of revenue for these sites was from advertising placement. By the late 2010s, content subscription service websites such as OnlyFans, were allowing adult-content creators to directly monetize their content.

Controversies

Copyright issues

One of the central issues of Porn 2.0 is copyright infringement. Porn 2.0 websites have come under attack as being potentially harmful to the economics of more traditional pornography outlets such as DVD sales and monthly paid subscription adult sites.

Privacy

Main article: Revenge porn

The distribution of sexually explicit images or videos of individuals without their consent is called revenge porn. The practice began in pornographic magazines in the late 20th century. The uploading of such images to the Internet to humiliate and intimidate people has become a significant societal issue in the 21st century. Uploading material without a model's consent is usually prohibited by a website's terms of use, although some sites such as Voyeur Web allow non-consensual photos and move offices frequently to avoid the legal issues this might otherwise entail. Photos and videos of non-consenting models are often obtained through the use of hidden cameras and the sexualization of their nudity. A woman going nude for a shower at her gym, for example, may be filmed without her knowledge and have the video distributed as porn.

Porn 3.0

News media have suggested the possibility of a future Porn 3.0, based on the use of technologies such as 3D stereoscopy, multi-angle DVD, neural impulse actuators, animation using AI technologies, and peripheral controller and devices, which are similar to game controllers' vibration or Teledildonics, eliminating less probable technologies such as holograms.
