Nydahl I do agree it is NOT simple, but heh it can be done, compiling a list of sponsors that have ICQ'ed me ( for myself that is sorry ) it will take some time but again it can be done

interesting

in that case an US citizen will buy porn on the European market

don't mix up the concepts

The internet obviously makes that impossible to enforce. Sitting here in my living room in the UK I cant break US laws, even if I tried.

If I commit an offence against a US citizen from here and we had the same legislation then I could be extradited I think. However, the UK dosnt have any corresponding 2257 legislation. In fact I may even be breaking a few UK privacy laws by complying with 2257!

I am worried about how this will affect the industry as a whole.... but whatever I do I wont be worried about a knock on the door from the FBI.

eroswebmaster,

don't you think you do illegal things when you sell porn to chinese surfers
because porn is illegal in their country? you do not call it chinese market, don't you? i'm sure you call it US market... so, the same is for Europe too

London is so much nicer than lets say Dallas, anyways :)

Read it a few times, and still doesn't make sense...

Care to explain ?

If that was the case. why did you guys switch to explicit in the first place ?

This chadglni dude is such an idiot...

They does not = me. As soon as they see conversions from non explicit they will be converted. My opinion only. ;)

I wouldn't suprised if a few of those big US firm decide to relocate in a more porn friendly country :winkwink:

You can and would be if you sell products to US customers within US borders while not complying with US/UK trade laws and sanctions or if your product did not comply with US law.

I guess it all boils down to the following:

Where exactly is the point of sale in an international ecommerce transaction involving no tangible products -- purchase locale, isp locale, hosting provider locale, payment processor locale, or locale of the media company?

According to the 2257 revision -- the governments contention is the point of sale (as it pertains to US customers purchasing within the US borders) is the US and therefore you are operating as an importer of goods and therefore bound by US law.


Obviously you shouldn't be.

Something tells me that that wouldn't fly internationally and that sellers outside the US that sell to US citizens and never set foot in the US would have very little to worry about.

would be my very first step if my surname is Lightspeed :pimp

by the way, what do you all think about amateur picture posts where all images are submitted by surfers? is it time to die for them?
