Dublin accountancy firm cuts ties to firms owned by Pornhub operator

Prior to the controversy, there were more than 100 million daily visits to Pornhub and more than 3.6bn visits a year.

Grant Thornton has resigned as auditors to four Dublin-based companies owned by Mindgeek, the operator of the world's most visited pornographic website, Pornhub.

The move by Grant Thornton Ireland to resign as auditors to MG Billing Ltd and three other Dublin Mindgeek-owned companies follows allegations of unlawful content on the Pornhub website in December.
