I am a UK based sex worker who is campaigning to shut down sites like XHamster and RedTube which share my own private/personal videos without my permission.
I am aware that a lot of people have a negative perception of cam girls and sex workers, but the work i do on cam is my own work and I should not only get paid for doing it (as should anybody who works - even a person painting a picture is working if they are creating content to sell). These sites take my work and distribute it for nothing, under-cutting me and infringing on my copyright.
I have asked sites which have my content on to please remove them, but they are often rude (sometimes obscene and threatening) and I do not have the money at my disposal to fight them in the courts. Therefore, I am calling for the UK Government to shut XHamster and RedTube down and to ask for EU countries beyond 2018 (post UK Brexit) to adopt this law as well.
You wouldn't like it if your work was given away free would you? Therefore I ask you to sign this petition and protect me and others in the same industry from cruel sites like XHamster who see sex workers as easy pickings.
Thanks - Amber Sparkles (not my real name)

Please sign and show you care for sex workers - we shall overcome and we shall win!
Sometimes it is necessary to back off, You will not be able to do anything to Xhamster or any of the other porn sites few of which are based in the U.K. If you are unhappy you can always try another job as do most people who feel they are being used.

I think this website should be banned. Some of It’s content is border-line illegal I feel sickened and sad that this website exists. I am not a puritan but I think this stuff should be banned for the good of society. Shut the website down it’s disgusting.
