MIAMI, FL — Gregory Clayman, a pioneering figure in the live cam sector and co-founder of the long-running webcam platform Flirt4Free, has passed away.
Clayman served as president of VS Media, the company behind Flirt4Free, helping guide the platform’s development during the formative years of online streaming technology. Originally launched in 1996 under the name VideoSecrets, Flirt4Free emerged as one of the earliest webcam platforms on the internet and helped pioneer real-time performer-to-viewer interaction.
Throughout his career, Clayman was widely regarded as an early architect of the interactive cam business, helping establish a model of live engagement that would eventually evolve into today’s creator-driven streaming economy.
Clayman was also a familiar presence at industry conferences and discussions focused on the future of digital media, where he often spoke about emerging technologies and the responsibilities of companies operating in the adult space.
XBIZ Founder and Publisher Alec Helmy remembered Clayman as a foundational figure in the cam industry and a decades-long friend.
“Greg was a true pioneer of the cam business. He entered the industry around the same time I did and was also one of my very first clients,” Helmy said. “Over the years we built a special friendship as we navigated the fast-changing landscape of our businesses together.
“I’ll always remember our conversations. Greg was soft-spoken and sincere, and he genuinely enjoyed sharing his unique wisdom and helping others along the way. I’m deeply saddened by his passing. Thank you, Greg, for all your love and support. Rest in peace, my friend.”
Industry attorney Corey D. Silverstein also paid tribute to Clayman, remembering him as both a brilliant businessman and a cherished friend.
“Greg’s unexpected passing has left a massive void in the world,” Silverstein told XBIZ. “I’m heartbroken for his family, friends, and anyone that ever had the pleasure to meet him. Greg was a brilliant businessman and always made me smile. There are too many stories of Greg’s adventures and I feel fortunate that I was able to share some of them with him. He will be tremendously missed.”
Over the years, Clayman earned recognition for his contributions to the business side of the adult industry, including being honored with Businessman of the Year at the 2017 XBIZ Exec Awards.
Information regarding memorial services was not immediately available.
XBIZ will update this story with additional remembrances as they become available.
NICOSIA, Cyprus — Pornhub parent company Aylo will restrict access to its free video-sharing platforms in Australia in response to new age verification regulations, the company confirmed Thursday.
Australia’s Designated Internet Services Code comes into force March 9. Finalized last year by Australia’s online safety regulator, eSafety, those rules require that sites and platforms with “the sole or predominant purpose” of providing online adult content must implement age-assurance measures before allowing users to access such content.
Failure to comply could result in civil penalties of up to 49.5 million Australian dollars (more than $35 million) per breach.
An Aylo spokesperson told XBIZ that users in Australia will be presented with a “safe for work” experience when they view the platform, and shared the following statement:
“In response to Australia’s new age verification law, Aylo’s video-sharing platforms will be restricting access to adult material before the deadline on March 9th. Australia is following a similar approach to the U.K., which all our evidence shows does not effectively protect minors, and instead creates harms relating to data privacy and exposure to illegal content on noncompliant platforms.”
As XBIZ reported in January, Aylo began blocking access to its free sites in the United Kingdom as of Feb. 2, unless users had already set up accounts prior to that date.
Australian news site Crikey is reporting that Australian users attempting to access Aylo sites Redtube, YouPorn and Tube8 are already encountering a message saying the platforms are “not currently accepting new account registrations” in the region.
The Aylo statement goes on to cite a recent survey by a child abuse prevention charity, the Lucy Faithfull Foundation, which found that 45% of UK pornography users have visited sites that are not compliant with age verification rules under the Online Safety Act. Like Aylo, the Foundation expressed concern that such sites may be more likely to host harmful or illegal content.
The statement reaffirmed that Aylo continues to favor device-based solutions as “the most realistic and effective way to protect minors online.”
“We encourage regulators to require operating systems to play their part in the protection of minors and the reduction of data sharing,” the statement reads. “For example, we have seen that Apple will be deploying an age verification requirement for 18+ app downloads. We suggest Apple enable the screen time feature to limit adult websites by default, and make it such that the very same verification be required to disable it. This can ensure that only age-verified Apple devices can access adult websites.”
As XBIZ reported last year, eSafety conducted public consultations while drafting the Designated Internet Services Code, but opted not to incorporate the recommendations of industry representatives such as the Free Speech Coalition.
