In a statement to Variety, a company representative said, “Antoon and Tassillo leave MindGeek’s day-to-day operations after more than a decade in leadership positions with the company. MindGeek, the internet company best known for operating Pornhub, said that CEO Feras Antoon and COO David Tassillo have resigned. So, perhaps it’s not a surprise that today, MindGeek (which also owns Men, Brazzers, Playboy, and dozens of other sites) announced that its two top executives, the CEO and the COO, are resigning. Just last week, Pornhub was dragged through the mud yet again in a poorly-sourced “investigative” article in the New Yorker, which was entirely reliant on the psychotic anti-porn and anti-gay religious zealots at Exodus Cry.

Last summer, the conglomerate shut down one of their other tube sites, Xtube, and several months before that, they deleted over 70% of the videos on Sean Cody without explanation. MindGeek (the parent company of gay porn studio Sean Cody) has faced major controversy and various lawsuits over the last few years, mostly related to videos hosted on their main tube site, Pornhub.
