‘Online sex workers literally have to bare it all’: why Patricia Nilsson is exposing the world’s biggest porn bosses.
As a business journalist, Nilsson began rigorously reporting on the power players of the adult industry, who prefer to remain in the shadows.
Along the way, she uncovered how porn has shaped the internet – and our lives as a whole.

A journalist spends 5 years researching the online porn industry and writes a book on it. She's so intent on being non-judgemental that, in it, she wonders why it's so influential rather than saying outright that hypersexualised culture is one of the hallmarks of a dying empire.
She (Patricia Nilsson)wonders what we can learn “about the state of capitalism when so many people are saying: ‘Actually, it’s not going to work for me to get a degree and try to get a job and work my way up because just earning an income, if you don’t have previous assets, is not working any more. I need to hustle to get a down payment on my house.’”
Finally, she is curious about the links between social media and a growing readiness to post explicit content. “Why,” she asks, “do we have an online culture that has made self-exposure so normalised, and the drive to monetise one’s own image so normalised, that the step to actually selling pornography is not that big for many people?”
