As the unfortunate recipient of a mal-ware virus this weekend which turned my otherwise innocent laptop into a hub of every porn site known to man, including the oddly named, “porno.org,” which implies that there in a non-profit organization that wants to help you find “hot young gay sex”. Needless to say, I came to wonder, how much porn is REALLY on the internet, and a quick Google search got me to an article at  Asylum that solved the mystery.

Almost 40% of the internet is porn. As in, not just a quarter but not quite a half, but about 40%. To put that in perspective, that Armani sweater you’ve been wanting so badly but refuse to buy because it’s $400, would be down to an almost reasonable 240 bucks. It’s no wonder that searching for “brownie recipe” is actually a NSFW decision.

The report by Asylum claims the rest of the internet is devoted to shopping (9 percent), travel (5.7), computing (4.2) and sports (4.2).

Oddly enough, we’re sure most of those have ties to the porn world too. Anyone up for a little vacation “down under”? ;)
