A former MindGeek moderator said many Pornhub videos that should've been taken down remained on the platform for months.

The ex-MindGeek worker said Pornhub received "thousands" of requests to take down videos that could include sexual exploitation of minors or non-consensual acts, but that moderators weren't able to get through them all.

"Many videos that should have been taken down stayed up for months," he said in a new Netflix documentary, Money Shot: The Pornhub Story, which is being released Wednesday.

The man, whose identity was not disclosed, claimed he reviewed 700 videos a day, but moderators were expected to review even more than that number. 

"I think the company could have done more to prevent certain things and chose not to, and only really changed some things after it got in trouble," he said.

"We were scrubbing through videos as fast as we could. Even if we thought that we were being diligent with our work, we would still miss a few videos every now and then."

The ex-moderator said he couldn't tell the age of someone from the video and that it was "really hard" to determine if they were a minor.

"Basically, we would just guess then my manager would decide if the video would be taken down for good, or if it would go live again," he said. "The rules constantly changed."
