as most people know 2257 has been around a long time and was never enforced - i've yet to hear or see of any XXX movie studio, web company,
content provider/producer who has ever had that knock at the door for a 2257 compliance inspection.
i think with these yahoos in government most people are pretty sure there will be some activity. but how much? do you think there's already an order from the Attorney General to do a certain number of inspections within a certain period of time? 100? 200? 500? whacha think - how widespread is this attack on porn going to be?
i have no idea.

Well, this is a great question, and we need to look at the logisitics of it.
DOJ brings in entry level people to knock on doors to inspect. They gotta be getting 40K a year or so in salary, right? And if they all live in Washington, DC...there's travel and living expenses to be covered...so let's say there's 10 DOJ guys doing this, they're at what...1 million a year to enfoce 2257?
And assuming there's 10 guys, how long will it take before they knock on your door?
Imagine how long it's gonna take to inspect, say, JUST Anabolic's records for the last few years...or Red Lights.
So what does this turn into...a lottery? If you get picked for whatever reason...you better be ready.
And geographics. I mean, if you're in, say, Seattle....but the DOJ knows the majority of the biz is in LA...does that mean you're "safe" in Seattle, but if you're in LA, get ready?
Really, when you start thinking hard about this, it almost makes your head spin.
