Brazzers (/ˈbræzərz/, company name: MG Premium Ltd.) is a Canadian pornographic video production and distributing company headquartered in Montreal, Quebec, and legal domicile in Nicosia, Cyprus. With an online network consisting of thirty-one hardcore pornography websites, the company's slogan is "World's Best HD Porn Site!" and features paid subscription-based content.

As of December 2020, the company features 2,340 different models and publishes across 31 different sites.[1]

History

Founded in 2004 by a group of Montreal investors, Brazzers became part of a larger group of pornographic sites under the corporate name of Mansef. In 2010, Mansef was sold to Fabian Thylmann and rebranded as Manwin Inc.[2][3] In December 2012, Thylmann was extradited from Belgium to Germany on suspicion of tax evasion.[4]

In October 2013, Thylmann sold Manwin's assets, including Brazzers, to an internal management group, MindGeek.[5]

In 2014, Brazzers celebrated its 10th anniversary with a billboard in Times Square in New York City. The digital billboard was located at the corner of 47th and 7th and viewable for the entire month of August.[6] In 2010, Brazzers had used a Times Square billboard to promote its safe sex campaign and to announce its "Get Rubber!" slogan and website.[7]

In September 2016, Vigilante broke the news of a database breach suffered by Brazzers, which affected almost 1 million users after the site was hacked in April 2013.[8][9][10][11][12]

Operations

Brazzers is owned and operated by Aylo, a multinational officially registered in Luxembourg.[13] The company was formerly known as MindGeek.

Brazzers came under industry criticism for associating with streaming media sites like Pornhub. In response, in 2009 the company initiated an anti-piracy campaign.[14]

Litigation

In 2008, after being fired, producer Bobby Manila sued Brazzers for fraud and violation of the terms of his contract. The lawsuit was eventually settled.[15]

In February 2010, Pink Visual Studio sued Brazzers' parent company, Manwin, for copyright infringement by distributing unlicensed video content on its free video-sharing sites. Brazzers' network has been accused of benefiting from unlicensed content by indirectly benefiting from traffic from sharing sites, but this was the first time a well-known studio had filed a lawsuit. A class action lawsuit was considered by other studios.[16]

In 2018, the Government of India banned Brazzers, among other porn websites, after an order from the Uttarakhand High Court demanding the same in a rape case where the perpetrators stated they were motivated to do so after watching online pornography.[17]

Ranking

As of July 2021, Brazzers.com has an Alexa traffic ranking of 3,576.[18]
