History
The company was founded in San Fernando Valley in June 2001 by Andreas Hronopoulos, with a small staff under the brand name SoCal Cash and changed its name to Naughty America in March 2004. The date 1776 in its logo refers to the United States Declaration of Independence in which Thomas Jefferson declared the right of “Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” La Touraine Inc., a Nevada corporation, based in San Diego, is the owner of the Trademark/Service Mark Naughty America.

In October 2008, Naughty America launched an Adobe Air-based application called Naughty America Direct, which was described as "basically an iTunes for porn".
