A user in Germany will get ads for a German dating site, while a user in Germany that is on an Android might get ads for a social dating Android app. A user in the UK could get an ad for an Online Casino and a user from the US an ad for Penis Enlargement or Viagra or Porn Game or whatever.
That's how it works these days. Advertisers all over the world are bidding big money to target specific porn users.
Maybe the 'online porn decline' that is being referred to is people spending money on actual porn memberships or buy DVDs online. That might be true. But the money generated through online porn is definitely not declined. The ad networks are making big money, the advertisers are making big money, the media buyers are making big money. they might not run paysites or sell DVDs but all the money that is being generated still comes from online porn. And there are still plenty of huge paysites and networks that produce a lot of content + you now also have the 1000s of amateur couples that produce their own content and make money off that from the content programs on the big tubes and amateur networks. If you include that probably more porn get's produced today than ever before.
Also check the Alexa of the big tubes and big paysites, many of them continued to grow in 2018

I used a VPN to pretend I came from the UK, US, Germany, etc.
What is being disputed is whether selling porn at $10 to $50 a pop on conversion rates that better than selling traffic at $5 a 1,000.
Are the ad networks, tubes, making big money from ads? Are they buying content? Could they survive a giant leap in B/W costs? If so why didn't they arrive earlier?
