I don't understand why this is spun up as such a big story. Yes it's funny somehow and sex sells, but honestly it's not adding any real value (as enough porn is anyway free). This is purely a marketing stunt and I'm disappointed a community like HN would be so happy to promote it.

If you're not interested in a specific shared link, I'd recommend not commenting on it. If links like this became the norm, maybe, but it certainly isn't.

Was it a marketing stunt, yes. Is it also a fun one that I'd argue will benefit some people during a time of distress, also yes. I know if I were in Italy, I'd use it.
