2257 is requiring you to prove that you are taking pictures (or whatever) with someone who is of legal age to do so. Laws typically aren't made to enforce you to prove that you can legally do something. If the model is 18 and you are as well, you are adults and can do what adults do without proving otherwise. It's realistically on the shoulders of enforcement agencies to prove otherwise.

The issue with 2257 is not with content producers. I see no problem with it there. It's the secondary producer clause. It's BS. There is no such thing as a secondary producer. Either one was involved with the actual production of a film or not. Why aren't convenience stores and porno shops required to have the 2257 info on the models in the magazines? Shouldn't they have to prove the girls in those pics are over 18 before they sell them?
