site shut down by FBI

I think this is big. a site very similar to this shut down today by the fbi?

I hate government....

"The shutdown of The Review Board is just the government's latest attempt to go after consensual prostitution by stoking fears about forced sex trafficking, and it doesn't matter if they're actually putting everyone more at risk and making trafficking investigations harder. The goal has never been about sex worker safety or saving victims, it's about punishing people whom the government views as blatantly skirting its rules and then wringing from them all the assets that it can. "

And hence why I make such a big deal out of supposed "helpers" and "captains" on our site as I feel they bring unneeded attention to our little community.

Hobby...play...stay under the radar...

what mechanisms ensure our safety in case assets are seized? how long do you keep ip logs etc.?

Really Toyz... Do you jump on every bandwagon with some story of how you had something to do with it or are on the popular side of the story?

You are toast if they decide to follow up...but that has always been the case...

Now...PROVING that you actually did anything you write about here is impossuble. In this instance the effort is to shut down the access, not launch massive arrests of chat board fiction writers....

I mean think about it...WhixxZy in front of a jury and the prosecution says "and here it quotes you as seeing your SO, then GF, then another hoogar all in one night and performing like a Roman Gladiator"....the jury is gonna look at him...then look at the prosecutor...and laugh....

just to avoid the potential pain in the ass, how does one even delete old posts anyway?

That's a MOD question. But I don't think you can. Even the rwviews from SGBJ can be found if you know how...and they've been "deleted".

Interwebs are forever...

LOL, just like fake handles, this too will rise from the ashes, remember ASPD, and of course there was the " big shutdown" of Craigs as well.... just keep an eye open.. it'll be back shortly, IF it goes away..

Interesting "seizure." No relevant data as yet, such as a federal judge's order.

And this article raises some interesting points.

We'll see more soon I am sure.

From the article..."federal agents are more than happy to spend their time playing website whack-a-mole"

Some of us may have sailed on gilded yachts, while others might be simply shipwrecked, but we're all stuck on this same damned island for misfit toys, and if we organized instead of bickering over inconsequential activities, like whose sig lines are too big, or whose fetish is too creepy, we could probably do something about government intrusion into our lives.
