To be fair, that's probably someone with a lot of stored up anger to get rid of.

As someone said on Twitter, Vine is the "one-two one-two" of a new platform - shows it's working.

No - it meant that if porn was on it then it was working and there is an audience paying attention. I expect that when Vine takes on a payment model, that content will attract a small pay per view fee.

Or could it be funded by advertising?
