One day, I hope people can have a nuanced discussion of the porn industry. Sentiments like this are true (emphasis mine):
Kytsya frequently promotes the advantages of going into the adult content creation industry, promising TikTok followers that it can prove a lucrative career choice. “The thing about my job is if you go full out you can make enough money to start your own thing whether that’s buying houses or doing Airbnbs and investing,” she says.

She also offers practical advice to followers who are considering working in this world, encouraging them to make sure they get tested regularly for sexually transmitted infections. She acknowledges that there are “dangers” involved in the work, and recommends that girls “who have just turned 18” should not rush into the adult industry. “Take time to think about it before you do it.”
More than taking time, the industry needs protection against exploration. Hell, success often means becoming the exploiter. You may be kinder and more empathic doing so, but that’s not garunteed.
Most young women aren’t going to make the money she made and hard work may not be enough. Unionization is unlikely happen industry wide since there’s a so many new women showing up all the time.

Which would be great and should happen. Unfortunately, there has never been a good faith effort to regulate the porn industry in the US. It’s always an attempt to eliminate it. I don’t expect this to change anytime soon.

Sex toys, too.
