This is correct imo. They already took on Larry Flynt, and lost eventually. This time around they will take on the second tier of porn. If you use your home the'll will use RICO to seize it, as they did in the Virginia case. If your wife helps out sometimes they will threaten her with 5 years in prison, further encouraging you to make a deal.

It doesn't really matter who wins, you loose.
