How? BP is it's own main issue but sites are falling left & right and it's not because of bumbling fools running the sites but because the law is now on the side of brutal censorship. Here is what the law now equates to:
- Every web site is responsible for its content
- Non-moderation of content is now meaningless, there is no protection
- If the content is INTERPRETED to facilitate criminality then the site itself will face criminal charges
This reaches into every site hosted within the US or operated from within the US. What happens when adults needing to find consensual services start doing so through Twitter, Instagram or SnapChat? Those services can't police millions of people or posts, and eventually will have no way to even moderate or comply with the law. The resources required to curb free speech are daunting and eventually they will cave.
The future of the Internet will be a homogenized wasteland of one-way corporate communication. That's what all people in power and at the top of the monetary food chain want.
None of this is about sex for money. It is all about the desire to control communication.
Unless recent laws are repealed as unconstitutional, it will just get worse.
