Do porn sites have viruses?

If you ever watched online porn in the 2000’s, you probably noticed the damage it did to your computer. Everyone who had a computer back then will have a story about porn viruses on their device and it’s still an issue today, so how do you watch virus-free porn?

Porn has a long association with viruses and other dubious computer problems and there are plenty of people still concerned about watching online porn. With so many concerns about viruses from porn on your phone or computer, you need to know how to protect yourself.

To help you know how to browse porn safely, we’re going to look at:

• Why porn is linked with viruses
• The damage a virus can do to your computer
• The three best ways to watch virus-free porn

So you can stay safe and still get your kicks.

Why does porn have viruses?

Porn videos don’t come with viruses, it’s some of the websites where porn is hosted that has viruses.

A virus is a piece of code that gets into your computer and causes problems. The people who make porn and create the videos don’t want your phone or other device to be faulty because then you can’t watch the content you love.

However, the people who make shady sites buried on the fifth page of a Google search doesn’t care so much about that. Those sites get made to turn a quick buck, usually with illegally leaked or stolen porn videos.

The people who put viruses and malware on those sites see your data and computer processing power as a fair trade for the free hardcore videos you get to watch.

That’s why to get viruses from porn on some websites, but there are other reasons, too. Mainstream advertisers don’t want to place ads next to porn, so the promos you do get are from unscrupulous types.

When you click on the “Fuck MILFs in Your Area” ad, that click can trigger bad things infecting your computer. The people behind the ads know you’re probably not thinking straight after you’ve bashed one out and take advantage of the fact.

What damage can viruses from porn sites cause?

If you’re unlucky enough to wind up on a dodgy porn site and get a virus or other bad stuff on your computer, here’s how you’ll know about it:

• A virus will slow down your computer and make it vulnerable to other cyber attacks
• A Trojan horse or malware adds code to your device that can see all the actions you’re doing or even take over your processor for crypto mining
• A piece of adware will mean that you get a bunch of ads popping up all over the place, particularly porn adverts, which ain’t great when other people might share your device.

How do I stop getting viruses because of porn?

Everyone should be able to watch porn in peace, so here are our top three ways to watch porn without viruses.

1.     Use a secure browser

According to our internal data, 49.44% of visitors to our porn site use Chrome browser. Chrome is one of the safest browsers, so if you’re on this site using it, you’re doing good already!

Chrome has built-in antivirus and anti-malware tech; you’ve probably seen warnings as you head to dodgy sites.

When you use Chrome in Incognito mode, you also don’t pick up any tracking cookies along the way.

2.     Avoid dodgy porn apps

It pains us to say it, but there aren’t any legit porn apps. We wish there were because we’d have an amazing app that would let you watch all the porn you want in a safe environment.

Unfortunately, Apple and Android don’t allow apps related to sex and porn in their stores. That doesn’t stop there being porn apps, though.

If you were to search for porn apps, you’ll definitely find some and probably end up with all kinds of warnings and pop-ups about them not being safe. That’s for good reason – the apps won’t have been checked for basic security or functionality.

You’re downloading a raw .apk file and giving it all kinds of access to your phone and files. It’s not a great idea – just deal with porn in your browser.

3.     Use SinParty

Here at SinParty, we have some of the best website security around. You can be sure you’re not going to pick up a virus or malware when using SinParty because:

• We don’t trade in your data – our site makes money through helping creators sell their content to buyers so we don’t need to steal your data to make running the site worthwhile.
• We care about security – creators are our lifeblood so we don’t want their content getting compromised. This means we’re constantly on alert for all kinds of issues including anyone trying to add malicious code.
• There are no ads on SinParty – so much of the bad stuff that winds up on your computer from porn sites is clicking on dodgy ads, and we don’t have ads for outside services. We want to keep all eyes on our creators and have people who enjoy porn buy it from them.

We’ve got everything you need on SinParty with hot creators posting free teasers and making custom porn to your exact specifications. Everything you don’t want – annoying ads, malware, and viruses – don’t have a way of getting onto the site.
