It isn't a new law, but it is still an old law being applied to the internet sites now in more or less an "Other" category. I don't expect the amateurs to know about it until someone mentions it or brings it to their attention. I'd even say most attorneys admit to being unsure about it and providing a best guess about how to comply with it and to what extent that compliance needs to be done.

If I were one of the girls running an amateur site, I wouldn't add my full name, home address, etc. on my site. Fuck that. Compliance would be a concern, but it would not outweigh the concern for my safety. I would attempt to find a safe alternative and in the meantime just have to deal with being non-compliant and taking that chance.
They could either rent a house/apartment to conduct business out of (That they're actually available at during business hours) or move to a country other than the US to avoid such things (legally, under the interpritation that a lawyer cannot be a custodian).
