So far I have heard ideas like moving companies offshore, trust funds, and other "work arounds" all of which don't relieve the US based webmasters of his responsiblity towards the law. If anything, attempting to sit on the head of a legal pin is probably only going to make the DOJ more upset with you, and more likely to take action.

I didn't suggest anyone's business was a joke, nice high school debate club trick dude. This thread started as a joke, some people take it seriously, I can't stop them. The only thing that I think is a joke is someone who had a solution BEFORE the rules were published, and yet can't disclose it?

I understand your pain. Thumbstgps look to be a legal nightmare, and you are in the business of remote supply of thumb galleries. Your scrambling, your running, and your in a bit of a panic. I can understand that. But rather than cryptic "we have a solution we can't talk about" how about addressing the real issue of remote thumbs and how that can legally operate after june 23rd?

(Oh yeah, a cut down thumd from a hardcore image is still a hardcore image... you have to store the original so that is how it will likely be judged for 2257 purposes... so all headshots isn't going to solve it).

Please, again, I ask you to enlighen us, not talk down to us.

I will as I have repeatedly said discuss this mater with people that have a viable business model that it effects personally, not have some drama debate with a canadian that has no business that this concerns and is trying to find a flaw, ( are you a lawyer alex?)

I have a business solution for many ( not all) and they may find it useful; to them, ( did you miss the part where I suggest they talk with council of competent legal standing) not take some board bullshit, I am only interested in discussing this not in secret, but with actual people with real BUSINESS concerns. Then if it is a fit for them great, if not as I said before what harm does befall them ? they are still in the same postition.
I will say again, I always suggest people talk to their own attorney in ANY matter concerning their own safety, if my business solutions are good for them, then I think your voice is actually irrelevent in the matter is it not?

as far as the thumb tgp issue, it is a seperate issue, and we have a seperate working model for it.... so if you have a solution then use it, we will see who's works and who's doesn't I would assume though ( as should you) that if a sponsor operating FHG's does not have that proper 2257 for their affiliates to use, then they will not be able to be a sponsor in our system of thumbs???? is that really hard to understand?

I would remind you that we also have the ability to run our tgp system with an offshore procesor for our clients, and we can completely block USA traffic if need be ...

so think what you want, but if you have any REAL BUSINESS concerns then you would not be slinging shit, but you would be looking for a solution.

I HAVE A FEW!!!!! do you? or do you just have some knowledge of what is and what is not legal oh great oracle of law?
