The video in question showed a clothed Hadreas and porn-star Arpad Miklos embracing. Both Hadreas and Miklos were known to be well involved in their respective gay communities.
It's been a year since that video was released, and earlier this month Miklos committed suicide.

This post was deleted for the following reason: This is pulling a lot of different hot-button issues (censorship, porn, gay porn, suicide, mental health) under the same umbrella, while not really offering any insights or info aside from suggesting these are related, and as such is ripe for more-heat-than-light discussion. Maybe think about a re-do on this, and contact us if you have any questions. -- taz
