So my question is, is this a short term play for them just to grab some attention or are they done for good?

Where will all these escorts and adult workers go now?

[lagwagon]

Potato is the answer

[anthony78]

I think they will try to find a legal job now ...

[dave90210]

America the land of the free?

[Bladewire]

America the land of the free?

Fuck you

[Zeiss]

Where will all these escorts and adult workers go now?

Personal websites, social media like whorebook maybe?

[Paul Markham]

Isn't this covered by the First Amendment?

[dave90210]

First Amendment has no value anymore! The government does what it does willy nilly!

Isn't this covered by the First Amendment?

[bns666]

never used it anyway

[MiamiBoyz]

never used it anyway

Probably don't use deodorant either but it doesn't mean the rest of don't either.

[Brian mike]

This apply to USA only ...I still can see escort ad in Canada on my end

Tried out Eccie or TER

[Major (Tom)]

This has more to do with trafficking than escorting

[TheLegacy]

Must be just USA - just checked and everything seems ok in Canada

[Jman]

Works in Canadananana ;)

[pornguy]

Its ONLY shut down in the US.

[windycityxx]

The wording on the website seems as though they censored themselves.. maybe they will uncensor and this was just to get some attention.. as I think they have a big court case going..

[john1975]

Either this is a last-ditch effort by Obama to piss on everybody...

Or a beginning sign of Trump's presidency. (attack on porn?)

[john1975]

Its ONLY shut down in the US.

now everybody from the u.s. has to Tor themselves out, just to post.

maybe it'll make it more popular now.who knows.

[directfiesta]

Personal websites, social media like whorebook maybe?

streets, with the pimps and drugs, causing higher crime and degrading neighborhoods

[celandina]

The bigger they are , the more selfrighteous censoring they do...and then they self censor themselvs right out of business....same as the idiots at PornHub and their NONO lists, so watch them fail in a few years.

Yes protect children, do not promote real Jihhad.... As for the rest it should not be censored self or otherwise...

[TheDynasty]

There are tons of better escort sites in USA

[fuzebox]

Ironically Backpage only took off when Craigslist shut down their adult section.

As soon as CP is mentioned it it makes it very hard for us to win..

[MakeMeGrrrrowl]

I think they will try to find a legal job now ...

My job is legal, and my advertising is legal, yet I'm still censored.

Speak for yourself.

[Bladewire]

That's why they do it, just like their religion, manipulation & control by fear.

[windycityxx]

I think they were doing 10+ million a month if i'm not mistaken, so I ask, who is going to be the next in line to take over this niche?

I personally believe the Backpage escort section will be the last of it's kind, and the action will either move to other sections of Backpage and Craigslist, or end up being split between the rest of the sites like Eros and The Erotic Review.

In most major cities Craigslist casual encounters still has a ton of escorts, and always has.

[lovebitch]

oh my fucking GOdddddddd

A lot of escorts have just moved to the Dating section.
Getting good deals on desperate whores at the moment.

[Bladewire]

^^ Truth

A lot of girls needing gas money / cab / uber fare to their date today

[windycityxx]

I was thinking the same thing when I seen they shut it down.

$25 specials all day long.

Mann Act -- Prostitution is illegal in the USA when it is interstate commerce.

Thanks 'escorts' ...

[Linkster]

These are the real reasons - Senators blast Backpage executives as site closes adult section | TheHill

And yes it is just censored in the US - note that the Calif Atty General who threw out the CEO's arrest and charges of pandering of children is now on the subcommittees panel - she was elected as a Democrat to the Senate

[Brian mike]

So now everyone is on massage service

Same thing like CL as soon adult section shut down everyone has move to therapeutic section

[Barry-xlovecam]

This is like swatting flies ... they just move on and the 'swatters' pat themselves on the back -- job well done.

I'm paying CASH to a whore in a hotel room in New York. How is that 'interstate travel'? It's not via credit cards (only idiots pay whores with CC).

[Brian mike]

(only idiots pay whores with CC).

Beleive it or not MANY ask for this CC payment... So cheap, there going to right off taxes their yearly BJ's

After this they wonder why their accountant ask more details about those transaction. That's funny

you got it backwards ...

Prostitutes (Notwithstanding where prostitution is legal NV?) don't take plastic or paper -- cash only. Drug dealers don't take plastic or paper -- cash only.

You don't take payment other than cash or Bitcoin? for illegal transactions unless you are an idiot -- payment proof of a crime?

ACH me the then I'll deliver the coke -- yeah right

Yes I know I have it backwards.
That's why the whores pay ME to fuck them.

[windycityxx]

Anyone know what the next biggest website like this is?

It was Craigslist, then Backpage, what is it going to be next?

Not escorting only type websites.
