Well, after a few months of lurking and reading as much as I can, I've decided to take the plunge and make my first post. Hi, how are you? That's nice, go fuck yourself.
With that out of the way, I'll jump right in to my first question. I'm trying to find a good source of information regarding the law regarding porn sites. Most likely, I'll start with a TGP on a paid host. I'll probably go with CandidHosting (at Florida NAP, in Florida) to start with, they have an attractive collocation price, which is something I'd definitely like to do when the site can support it. I'm unclear on how the law works though. For example, I live in Kansas. Are there state laws which would prevent me from being the webmaster of an adult site, even if the site is actually hosted in Florida where such things are apparently perfectly legal?
I've done a lot of searching on this, but most sites I've found dealing with porn laws are written in lawyer speak, or don't answer my question. Is there a resource that breaks down the law by state, or is there an easy answer to this question? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
At least one person has told me that I should just start doing an adult site because nobody pays attention to such laws. I would like to do this right, or not do it at all, so I'm starting with the legality of it before moving on. I'm not looking for a quick buck, and I'm not looking to cheat or fuck anybody. Rather, I'd like to build a site that looks nice and works nice, something which seems to be extremely rare in the TGP world, and with adult sites in general.
Again, thanks for any help or advice you may have to offer. I've considered contacting a lawyer about this, but that seems like overkill to a question as seemingly simple as this one.
Rather than spam you with my first post, I'll leave you with some humor instead. Okay, maybe I'm just cruel, but I laughed my ass off because I've been there.
