[2257 must read] E-mail Your 2257 Comments to the DOJ

I know. It is just I am sick of the "we are for the industry crap".
An injunction can prevent this, or at very least someone could try.
The laws are just not needed since the old ones were never even fucking tested.

"we were the world,
now we got no future.
sing the death song kids."

i hear you about this "we are the industry crap":

i picture bunches of unhealthy slobs holding hands outside the DOJ office reading the constitution, people want to change the world but they want to do it from their desks.

attend a rally, do something that matters.

november coming fire.

I would gladly do it if I had not already gone up to bat against the US government already in the past. One United States of America Vs. (my name) document is enough per person.

this stops you from attending rallys?

ive been arrested, been to court.

nothing short of a bullet will stop me from going outside and screaming.

going to attend a town hall meeting soon too.

cant wait to be the only guy dressed in all black with tats holding a sign screaming

"take your jesus and your war and get the fuck out of america"

No i mean filing the injunction.

Excellent thread

I posted this in another thread, and re-posting here... people should do more than send in their comments, you need to get involved and band together:


Until porn is ruled illegal, it just doesn't make sense for webmasters to be put in jail just because of slackness in record keeping or a twisting of the law to serve an agenda.

I am a fan to some degree of freedom-fighting organizations like ACLU, EFF, and FSC, where these groups (and the people working in those organizations) approach freedom from the legislative angle... in lobbying congress and trying to influence laws... I see that problems can have solutions.. using either high tech or low tech.

Addressing issues like 2257 from the legal angle is definitely needed and I know there are legal beagles out there looking to take on the challenge of dealing with the constitutionality of the new 2257 regulations.

Myself and all the other tech-heads that are creating 2257 solutions are addressing the problem from the practical standpoint of what can a webmaster do to comply as best as they can with the law.

Even if the legal approach strikes down certain parts of 2257, there is alot of 2257 that will still be standing. It's understood by many of us that while 2257 is a record keeping statute meant to ensure that children are not used in production, it is clearly seen as a method and tool to shutdown adult websites (much like Protect Act was used to shutdown CP websites - stretching the original intent of the law).

Self-policing and setting of industry standards is normal for all mainstream industries that grow beyond their infancy.

The online adult entertainment industry has matured and is facing issues just like other industries (ie. patents, regulations, etc).

This is why organizations like FSC, IMPA, and ASACP are looking to give guidance to webmasters to follow best practices in order to not have legislation passed, to regulate the industry by those that don't even understand the industry.

If Acacia wasn't the wake-up call, then 2257 is the banging on the door to get yo azz out of bed.

As you start to hear about efforts that FSC or IMPA are doing in areas of 2257, please pay attention. Having a large group come together to address important issues is the way to make positive change. This means supporting efforts that look to protect your interests with both your time, your vote, and financial contributions.
