Software was developed to catalog and organize 2257 documents and websites were developed to help producers be ready if the Feds came knocking. Now a few years later and the tubes are feeding all the content for free, no warning pages and no 2257 documentation ( same as the forums ). What changed? No one thinks the Feds will be investigating? Not enough convictions to scare anyone?

This has been covered a million times over the last couple of years but I'll give ya the short version:
User uploaded content is exempt from 2257
In my opinion 2257 is a stupidly written law to begin with that doesn't stop the perverts out there from shooting little children at all. But it sure does penalize honest people who aren't doing anything illegal. Sorta like most laws.
But to answer your question...there is a loophole that has constitutional questions regarding 2257 and user uploaded. So basically I can't put up a vid on my own site unless I have full documentation. But I can upload it to somebody else's site with none.
Yeah, it makes no sense. But that's the way it stands as of this moment.
