Never seen a lot of porn being shared on social networks either. Posting porn on Facebook gets your account banned.
Not much porn on mobiles atm but I have seen it being done and then sent to other friends, This will only get bigger in time just like the mainstream videos and music they rip and use for ringtones, very popular to rip music from youtube to mobiles and very easily done atm. Torrents are used by novices very much, I found out that even my own daughter was using torrents some years ago as were most of her freinds at school, thankfully she has grown up and no longer uses them anymore, as for social networks the users use them to spread urls by emails and chat.

Even after talking to both my kids about downloading pirated music and videos they still did not seem to grasp why it was wrong, its a culture thing all thier friends do it too, they used to share music with friends on thier phones at school and its going to be hard to break. I can happily say that both of my kids have both left school and grown up and no longer download pirated music. But I wouldent be suprised if my son and all of his mates do the same thing with porn given the chance even though they know its wrong.
