The end of US porn webmasters or not?

Personally I do not worry about these attacks. If they close down US websites completely it will just mean more US citizens will be spending their $$$ in the EU.

But this was interesting.

You may know that the PROTECT Act requires General Ashhahahahaha and the Justice Department to report back to Congress in a year or less concerning the number of 2257 records inspections and subsequent violation prosecutions that have occurred. What you probably don?t know is that penalties for 2257 violations have been increased from 2 years in jail to 5 years in jail, and repeat offenders can be sentenced to 10 years in jail. If you run an adult site, chances are you are in violation of 18 U.S.C. 2257, which opens you up to this risk. And while before the government couldn?t use your 2257 records against you, now they can indeed do just that. 2257 will be a huge issue before this year is done, I can promise you that. Get a lawyer now.
