At bare minimum, sure profits from the videos should be suable. Pornhub just may not be liable for other damages if they can prove that Girls Do Porn lied to them about the nature of their content. If there is proof that they have no process in place for verifying a partner by say interviewing actors, then certainly they should be held liable, which seems to be the case. That gets to some gray area tho because that could affect every internet company in existance

There some USC that requires adult sites to maintain verification and model releases. The GDP people are liable, so I hope they get nailed.

I don't agree. It's an out-and-out violation of a contract.
I agree that they were stupidly naïve, but that isn't a crime. The producer should be liable for basic damages, at least to the extent that they've profited from the video, as well as damages paid to the the girls for mental anguish.
