Except from trying to kill the industry, the new regulations about 'secondary producers' are designed for a preventive effect too; the affiliates now have to verify that the models they promote, really ARE legal. I don't know, but if you look at the past, beeing affiliate and use promo content, involved trusting the paysite owner that the content was legal. Its quite obvious that this way of trust is not good enough for the lawmakers anymore. So would encrypting the data be a valid method then? Time will show.
I'm not saying it is wrong that way, but that could also be very problematic in certain situations:
- If you have the feds visiting you - 100 sponsors you have to call - key for EACH model - both male and female models .... that would cost a lot of time and money, and its risky.
- Probably ND will stay in biz, but what about smaller programs? Will they provide all keys if they stop or be instant available 4 years later? ; if you post a gallery in 2006, the program stops in 2008... according to the law, the feds can visit you, lets say in 2009 and request ID verification for something you posted 3 years ago.
Privacy vs trust is a dilemma.
