				 |  Flickr, 2257, and the DoJ  http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3224/...58108f58_o.jpg What obligation does flickr have to maintain some sort of records for this shit? Does anyone think it would be possible to get the DoJ to bother Yahoo!? Given their current corporate take over problems, I think a DoJ statement would be less than helpful. I don't really have a point here, I just saw this and thought that Yahoo! was walking an interesting line here.

				 | It is user submitted, HOWEVER, unlike sundance, they DO re-size the images on their servers, so they have modified the image.... I'm could be wrong on sundace, I'm not up on my 2257 like I should be, as a few of you know my legal focus has been elsewhere lately.

				 | If I'm not mistaken, entities that merely host content are not subject to the record keeping regulations of 2257.  Furthermore, if Flickr has an acceptable use policy that forbids their users from uploading adult content and they actively enforce this, then they have nothing to worry about. Edit: looks like they allow adult content. |

				 | Nobody cares. They won't go after them. They will go after a few pay site companies to set examples and then go away for a while. IF they do anything at all. |

				 | I'm pretty sure hosting it on your website, opens you to compliance... I really wish as a citizen we could press charges on Flickr or something, make them get that law tossed out on their bill. Eh, 2257 is shit anyhow, but I don't think Yahoo! should be exempt from laws just because they have money, if there is anyone that should be held accountable for cumbersome record keeping requirements it SHOULD be those with the budget to do so... I guess the US has fallen entirely into OJ law. If you got money, laws and shit don't really apply.

				 | The intended use of 2257 is adult materials in commerce. As soon as you expand beyond that, regular people trading nudies through email or some other service get swept up into it and that obviously doesn't work. |
