The FBI has performed less than a half a dozen inspections this year, about a half a dozen last year, and are on pace to make their way through the major porn studios by about 2015 (assuming no more companies start to produce DVDs and Blu-Ray discs). They don't have the manpower or apparent desire to be out there each day knocking doors and checking paperwork.

It has also been pretty clear that when they show up for an inspection, they know what they are looking for, and rather than just randomly crusing through the files, they are looking for specific titles, performers, and the like.

Now the asterix: Once the current rule clarifying is all done and secondary producers can be inspected, I would expect to see at least one or two major secondary only producers get visited just to "test the waters" and to show that the FBI is using thier "new powers". I expect that to potentially be a replicator or an editing company. They may also select a large american based free site or TGP and see what happens.

If they inspect any website it's going to be Hustler or GGW or something like that. Something with a name everyone knows.

Ok first of all where do they get this giant list of porn websites to start inspecting. Then there's a 50% or more they are NOT American. They aren't going to fuck with non-American sites even if the AG thinks the law applies to them. Now how do they know it's non-American? Well I guess they can start with whois information( you have to assume a certain % of whois info is bogus, but that's a different topic ). How long does finding a website determining it needs to be inspected and finding out if they can even inspect it take? There is no way more than a small small small % of American porn sites could even be reviewed. Then out of those that they think might be in violation they can only inspect a very small % of those.

I also imagine if you get a democrat in office most of these inspections will stop and those Feds can do real work like stopping the next 9-11.

I feel if your site steers clear of the whole "teen" niche you have a better chance of winning the powerball and getting struck by lightning on the same day than getting inpsected.
