The lawsuit paints a dark picture of Salesforce, which has long touted human rights and building technology for the greater good.

Fifty women are suing Salesforce in a San Francisco court, alleging the company sold business tools to sex trafficking website Backpage.

CEO Marc Benioff has advocated for gender equality in the workplace and better services for the homeless.In public, including on Twitter, Salesforce boasted about fighting human trafficking using its data tools. But behind closed doors, Salesforce's data tools were actually providing the backbone of Backpage's exponential growth. Salesforce didn't just provide Backpage with a customer-ready version of its data and marketing tools.

Salesforce markets customer acquisition and retention tools for businesses. It's one of the largest software companies out of San Francisco, with a market valuation above $120 billion.
