Adult performer Christian XXX stated, 'They posted my real name, the real names of my parents and pictures of them, their home address and telephone number, the name and picture and phone number of my brother, a picture of the cemetery where my grandfather recently passed away, not to mention saying that I have HIV.'

Porn Wikileaks was a wiki website ( ) which contained the personal information, including the real names, of over 15,000 pornographic actors.
