“Why does Pornhub even have a share to Google+ button?” (joke)

Google+ is an interest-based social network that has been the subject of several jokes, such as this one, that was posted on Twitter by Theodore Kellington‏ on July 8, 2012:
 
“Why do they put the Google+ link when you’re watching porn? I don’t want anyone to know that I use Google+.”
 
Some versions of the joke specifically mention the adult website Pornhub. “PornHub has a share button for Google+. That’s stupid, I don’t want anyone to know I’m using Google+” was posted on Twitter on APril 24, 2014.
 
     
Wikipedia: Google+
Google+ (pronounced and sometimes written as Google Plus) is an interest-based social network that is owned and operated by Google.
 
The service, Google’s fourth foray into social networking, experienced strong growth in its initial years, although usage statistics have varied, depending on how the service is defined. Three Google executives have overseen the service, which has undergone substantial changes leading to a redesign in November 2015.
