The industry generated about $13 billion last year and was considered so important to the California economy that the “Adult Entertainment” industry asked for, and almost received, a $5 billion government bailout during the financial crisis, along the lines of the bailout provided to auto manufacturers.ĮxtremeTech documented earlier this year that adult websites capture 4.41 percent of all worldwide Internet web searches. About one out of seven porn movies worldwide are shot in the cities of Glendale, Burbank, San Fernando, Hidden Hills, and Calabasas.
