Craigslist

So much for that, that was the only regular way I could find someone in my area.

I know, totally sucks. I used to post 6 ads each day and I would get at least 3-5 good responses. Where do you think everyone will migrate? I'm guessing Backpage will close theirs down shortly. All the things wrong with this country and Congress decides this is paramount to fixing. SMH

Just a layman, but taking a fast look at that law, even sites like this maybe gone.

I scored many great encounters both by responding to ads and posting my own. Definitely going to miss the CL Finds!

CL has been a good site to find UTR providers and I've had some extraordinary success there over the years. But recently, its been mostly useless. Too many scammers and all of the legit people got continuously flagged. That said, this new proposed legislation does suck.

Looks like TER US-based ad discussion boards are gone too.

Now that we've solved the human sex trafficking problem, can we figure out why my school taxes keep going up but the kids keep getting dumber?

I have a gay friend on FB who's all for a political correct society, complete with LGBT Rights for All, Socialism, Remove all guns from society, etc.

Now with CL Personals gone, him & his gay friends are crying foul!!

LOL!!! OH THE IRONY!!!

I highly doubt ECCIE is going anywhere just because of this new law. The DMCA didn't do much, if anything, to slow down torrenting. Sites that provide information, such as this one, will exist as long as there is an internet. Remember that not all hosts are based in the USA. Despite many globalists being entrenched in politics, we aren't under a one world government (yet).

So the question arises, other than looking here or TOS (not a fave of mine), where do we hunt at other than the streets.

We're not going anywhere we will adapt same as always.

Posting? No. Probably not. Operating? Yup. And if nobody operates the sites, you have a chicken/egg problem. (to wit, nowhere to post).

And take a single provider with a website: while the feds probably won't prosecute that, they now clearly can. And with discretion, you get stupid shit: let's not forget Mary Beth Buchanen, who spend 10 million bucks chasing Tommy Chong into federal court in Pittsburgh for selling bongs. Not weed. Bongs.

It's the "chilling effects" stuff. And it's legitimately problematic. A single provider can probably get around this shit by hosting her site and domain registration in an offshore location where prostitution is legal or tolerated (who likely won't work with the feds as a result). Someone like ECCIE or Indys or TER could do that stuff, but has one problem: money. One can't repatriate the money (likely) without either doing accounting tricks which themselves would invite scrutiny or a trip to club fed on the basis of the money machinations alone. I suppose an enterprising European who never wants to visit the US could set up a site....

I think this stuff will get shot down on it's first application to a non-trafficking situation. But folks aren't gonna be lining up to be the test case (see: chilling effects). The net result is going to be underground groups and non-public platforms for trading hofo, which doesn't really make anyone involved any safer but nobody (nobody!) has ever accused the government of thinking it all the way through....
