This porn story officially has a happy ending.
Come4.org, a free porn site that plans to raise money for charity depending on how many videos people watch, has reached its funding goal. The Milan-based project has garnered more than $20,000 in funding of its planned $13,000 goal on Oct. 31 on fundraising site, Ulele.
Self-described by its Italian founders, Marco Annoni and Riccardo Zilli, as “revolutionary,” the proposed site bills itself as “porn with a heart.” The website plans for users to create profiles and upload self-produced videos. Funding for charities would be siphoned from advertising on the website, and videos will be linked to pages asking for donations for charities.
“We would like to thank you all,” the owners wrote on its Ulele page when the project reached funding completion. “It was a fantastic 50days crowdfunding campaign.”
In a note posted Nov. 8, the founders laid out their plan to bring the site to a full (-frontal) launch. Zilli and Annoni plan to speak with business lawyers to set up a company so the site is following regulations, producing a budget plan, and talking with various charities to gauge interest.
Come4.org (NSFW) links to a splash page thanking sponsors but still has not launched. The Daily Dot has reached out to its founders for an update but has not heard back yet.
