15. actually, you'd be surprised at how porn has helped advance technology

early in the days of the world wide web, people were all abuzz about the concept of "ecommerce", but everyone was wary of sending their credit card information "into the ether" and many merchants were excited about the possibilities but unconvinced that it would be accepted by consumers.

then came porn and men opened their wallets as they are wont to do for such things, and they made a ton of money quickly and easily online. and suddenly merchants in other businesses and investors realized, wow, people really will submit credit card info online, this thing is going to work, and it was off to the races for online business and the boom began.

less visibly, they've also pushed demand for more storage and faster speeds as this is also important to that industry.
