There are common carrier exceptions to the 2257 statutes.
GFY is covered under those, as are sites like Google.

I have a feeling that won't carry much water in this case. GFY isn't a common carrier, they do edit posts, ban people, and limit the content of sig files. By nature, the exercise editorial control over the content of the board, and as such are not "blind" common carriers, but a service provider (and secondary producer as a result).
That nice picture of Sunny is the corner will certainly need a 2257... as will many of the images from the pheonix forum.
Also: I am wondering how this will affect Fubar and JFK... some of those images are explicit, and not all of them are taken at public events (no "news" exemption).
Anyone?
