    How much will USA loose in companies moving out from the country? 2257.

    Lot´s of people I talked to are moving their bizz outside US to not have to bother about this 2257 shit.

    But this must also mean USA will loose alot of money right?

              (Don't mean to laugh at you cumsensei.....no hard feelings ok?) It's just the the revenues generated by the entire online adult business combined don't even match 1/4 of a large retailer, like Walmart for example.

                    US paysite companies are going to have a hard time moving out side of the United States. VISA regs say the owner of the US processed company must be American (with a ssn) and live within the states. Same goes for EU based processing, the owner has to be a resident in that EU country.

                          How much will you lose if you stop picking pennies up off the street?

                          I imagine that propotionally it works out to about the same.

                            Substantial Michaelious!! :-)

                            It's a law that would be (and has) been accepted in the US. It's not the type of law that has a chance in hell of existing in the EU or most other places. The US has an undercurrent of very warped ideas - mainly coming for a minority and they can cause havoc.

                            If you are actually sitting on the top of heather-covered hills in Scotland - there is no way ya need to be concerned about US charades :-) Just don't host in the US and have nada contact on a biz level - it's far easier.

                            I'm spread over several countries and have no US hosting and none of these countries are the slightest bit interested in listening to US Civil Code - they have their own laws.

                            Who knows what may happen, but I can't see even US folks sitting back and accepting some of the elements in 2257 - if they do, I give up all faith in em!:-)

                            Currently the US DOJ have made statements about "foreign servers" and these are, as most is, more verbal. The US has the right to block "foreign servers" - the same as any country has. But, that does not happen without hearings, - not just in the US, but with other trading partners/countries - that will take years to resolve.

                            The same bs was adopted by the online gambling industry.. and ya know what happened to that. ie.. WTO judgement against the US and now a considerable amount of gambling operations are being operated via the EU countries. Frankly.. I dunno why the US keeps shooting itself in the foot.

                              Its not just 2257 but mainstream industry as well. Why should companies stay in the US when they can get better tax breaks and advantages in other contries

                                Well yea! :-)

                                Tho.. they will pretend it does not matter and more important claim being that "we are protecting our children".

                                Truth is, they failed miserbly to instigate one charge since the 90's under 2257 and protected nothing. The other element, financial, - you actually think they care about the adult economy? Na :-) Just gimme anothe pile of credit cards and more credit from Asia to let me continiue living in debt.

                                    Gotta agree with that! :-) There was a time, not long ago, where, tho the US may not have been an "ideal" for the net, - it was tolerable and OK.

                                    Now.. between the credit card fiasco with VISA US, the failures of iBill blah and now the US govt stuffing their nose into the internet pie - it's gotta be one of the most unfavorable locations for any net business (but better than Iraq).

                                    Also consider... there are numbers of countries who operated on a geo taxation principle and these countries do not even think of charging taxes on net revenue, so hard not to consider all these options when chosing a location.

                                      Why risk if you can do it out of the US ?

                                                Perhaps the underlying problem is that the general public doesn't feel it can be held liable for sharing illegal adult material, and [the doj] is using us as examples that attempt to demonstrate just how close to home these compliance issues are. By being outrageous, they get in position to take down at will whatever they want. What the gvt does not realize is that in their "solution" to the "problem" will only result in the loss of jobs, federal income, and increase the gap between small and big business online. With pensions and heath insurance failing, the "get out" syndrome, similar to rats jumping out of the sinking ship methaphor, is more than just a shapshot of the adult industry reality.

                                                        Moving away isn't going to help anything.
