Insex was a personal "project" of I believe two guys. The problem was, it got too big for its own good. In the beginning, they had a solid few models that did scenes, and were well aware of the risks involved. Later, as the popularity grew, more models sought to star in an "Insex" film. Eventually, some of them weren't prepared for the harshness, and lawsuits began. The next iteration, kink.com, tries to walk the middle line between realism and showmanship. New models are handled with kit gloves. Though they can still get harsh, it only happens with trusted models

Kink.com is SO FREAKING ANAL (ha!). The scenes are agreed to beforehand, and the model is filmed before and after scenes verbalizing both her part, and her consent.

........Example: They agree to do a bondage/ intercourse video but are told there will be a condom worn. They male model slips off the condom and goes raw.

I believe that the new iteration of INSEX is Intersec, not kink.com.

I never read about lawsuits. As I recall the feds clamped down on the owner's credit card processors and when the money stopped he closed up shop and sold it.

My first thought to that - Shoot the son of a bitch!!

The first part is actually from a documentary called "Graphic Sexual Horror" which is a documentary about Insex.com - which is the site the clip showing the actual bondage is from.

I've been involved in shooting for several European websites (both in front of and behind the camera) for the best part of a decade now, and there are always safewords when we are shooting, and the top will check in with the model throughout to ensure they are ok. As someone mentioned above, you don't see models safewording, becuase this is edited out of the final footage before it it published.

I cannot comment across the board, but I know on every set that I personally have been on, limits are discussed in advance, and doubled checked on the day of the shoot, and there have been safewords which when used are respected. And generally the more extreme ideas we shoot are suggested by the models.

InSex was poorly laid out and they seemed to be completely ignorant about the business at the time.

The video in question is actually two parts. The first is from a larger special about abuse in the porn industry. The model claims she negotiated one thing and was then forced to do another in scene. The second part is the actual video, from a group of sites called kink.com, most likely Hogtied. These sites are well known for their rigid bondage and harsh treatment. So is what she claims true, who knows

Insex was a financial windfall for the owner. The owner stated that once he went online as a paid site he made more money in two weeks than he made in six months as a college professor. He said it was almost as if people were just waiting for content like this. He wasn't ignorant at all about the business. He always figured that the government would come after him through the court system. Obscenity suits are hard to win. So much of obscenity is a matter or perspective. So they leaned on the banks who processed his site's income which was substantial. Their claim was that porn sites often are used by terrorists to funnel money. Once they did that he closed the site. Reportedly he sold the site name and content for several million dollars to some overseas entity. I don't know how sites like Kink.com flourish. I know the different brands under it's label are not nearly as intense as the old Insex but they still would seem to be enough to piss off the feds.
