Before Jimmy Wales launched Wikipedia to smear alternative medicine, he ran a sleazy porn network

The dirty past of Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales’ prior internet ventures continues to come to light, with new evidence now showing that the misinformation website’s early launch was made possible, in part, by money obtained from a sleazy porn network.
A dot-com “bust” search engine called “Bomis,” reveals an extensive report by WND.com’s Judith Reisman, promoted nude images and other soft-core pornography in order to fund the original creation of Wikipedia. And Wales has apparently tried, ironically, to cover this up by repeatedly altering Bomis’ Wikipedia entry.
A WIRED report from 2005 claimed that Wales “repeatedly revised the [Wikipedia] description of a search site he called Bomis, which included a section with adult photos called ‘Bomis Babes.'” The original Wikipedia entry explained that Bomis Babes was “soft-core pornography,” but Wales allegedly later changed this verbiage to “adult content section.”
He also, on numerous occasions, attempted to remove all references to pornography from the Bomis Wikipedia entry, though the page today admits that Bomis “focus[ed] on X-rated media,” and included “erotic images,” “adult pictures” and other “explicit material.”
