Dre, you know when we started TGP2 and you later jumped on the bandwagon and started taking TGP2 submissions to schoolporn. TGP2 had a lot of inside bickering and as a movement it was never homogenous. This part it had in common with every other way of driving traffic. Simple, different people have different needs and not all look for long-term profit.

I'd say cool, the US goverment is trying to regulate this industry, so damn nice! How many non-US webmasters are there? How fast do you think many of them will adapt to US regulations? We've seen the discussions about 2257, many webmasters are more or less telling the US goverment to go fuck itself. So much for regulating this industry from the outside... Try regulating it from the inside? Say one day all the TGP's go away. How long do you think it will take before just as many, controlled by non-US webmasters, will take their place?

The only thing that to me sounds good enough to regulate this industry is if processors would simply stop processing for non-compliant sponsors and make them police their affiliates to be compliant in turn or risk lose their processing. While we know such a thing would not happen easily, I'm honestly hoping VISA and MasterCard would have something to say about this. And with enough government pressure, they just might. The processing is where the non-compliants should be hit, that's where it would hurt the most. We all saw how fast things changed when the 1% chargeback rule started being enforced. For now, few actually have enough to lose by not complying, in fact they'd probably risk losing more if they did.
