Your local Adult store is not required to have 2257 info for every picture in every magazine or video they happen to sell.
But they would be required to have access to that information.. I see TGPs in this same way.. They are the Adult Book Store, I believe we are responsible to have access to 2257 info if requested for content that we have produced. Anything that we have not produced we do not have to keep records on hand. This is just my opinion but this is how I see it, I do not see how a website can be considered any different than a adult book store, when it comes to following the laws.
The other issue that I brought up about google.. it would be my guess that google is one of the biggest porn peddlers out there.. Of course they are not directly selling porn but they make tons of money by linking to sites that sell porn... hence the google Image search is probably the biggest TGP of them all... an example this search of "naked girls" on google using the image search brings up all kinds of nude photos hosted on googles servers, with no 2257 info..

so why would google be immune to these laws?

YES they are!!!
Look at the video boxes! everyone has a 2257 statement on the cover of the box (usually on the back at the bottom). Every magazine has a 2257 statement on the first page or last page but its there! better check your facts.
Its not my oppinion.
Its the law
