What did the US do with Bin Laden's porn collection?
After six years of keeping Osama Bin Laden's personal information classified, the US government finally plans to release the information, with the exception of some pornographic and copyrighted content.
"There are some obscene items, some copyrighted items. Everything but those will be released in the coming weeks," CIA Director Mike Pompeo told Fox News.
The announcement means the Al Qaeda terrorist network leader's 'dirty' collection will not be released.

During the 2011 operation, a US Navy SEAL team seized a number of documents from Bin Laden’s compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. These included family letters, documents related to Islamic history, and records of Al Qaeda operations.
Mr. Pompeo said that the information related to Bin Laden being published will help many people know about it and make the right judgments to ensure that an incident similar to the 9/11 terrorist attack does not happen again.
This is not the first time Bin Laden's porn collection has been mentioned. In 2015, BroBible - a magazine focusing on men's interests, petitioned to declassify Bin Laden's collection under the Freedom of Information Act.
"We're adults. We can handle it. We want to know what kind of porn the world's most wanted criminal likes," wrote David Covucci of BroBible.
However, this request was rejected and the CIA said they were prohibited from sending letters related to obscene matters.
According to the US government, Bin Laden was shot dead in a raid and buried at sea nearly 10 years after the network he led carried out the terrorist attack on the US.
