Pornhub wants to buy Tumblr and restore site to former porn-filled glory

Less than two years after buying Tumblr as part of its Yahoo acquisition, Verizon is reportedly trying to sell the blogging platform. Verizon banned all adult content from Tumblr in December 2018, and Pornhub wants to restore the site to its former porn-filled glory. Shortly after Verizon announced the Tumblr porn ban, we reported that Tumblr’s algorithm for enforcing the ban was “flagging non-adult content as adult content, and vice versa.”
