      I don’t think the biggest part of the internet is porn. There’s a LOT of porn and a few really big porn sites, but I don’t think they hold a candle to social media and shopping.

      I found this link that has porn being #s 14 and 15. It was actually hard to find recent data that included porn at all. I think some counters were too embarrassed to admit porn existed.

        Those are just the biggest sites. Also 12 is a porn site. But it doesn’t say anything about the size of the total porn on the web. Like, amount of sites and content. Estimates are roughly 80% of the entire internet is porn.
