Do you remember any or all of these websites?

I'm not sure if I remember Lycos? I do believe I remember the others though.

There are a few I don't remember, but remember most of them.

Just looking at the graphic I've at least heard of all of them. Yandex as a source of endless spam when I helped admin another message board. I don't know about baidu although I'm sure I've heard the name.

If I recall xvideos was one of many adult sites that had to take down a huge amount of content because payment processors refused to work with them. A news article some time ago mentioned them and a few others, and allegedly they had been lax in ensuring that all the people featured in the videos were 18 and consented to being filmed and uploaded. I'm surprised they only scraped in at number 10 and none of the other adult sites made the cut. I'm not exactly a connoisseur of such sites but I didn't think they were the most popular adult site out there.
