Trump signs law targeting sex trafficking websites

[trish]

Bill Clinton was impeached for lying to Congress about his affair with Monica Lewinsky. Since then times have changed. Al Franken gave up his seat on the Senate in the face of allegations of sexual abuse. Of course this pussy grabbing hypocrite we call our President now will never pay the price: he and his diehard supporters have no honor, no decency, and no sense of shame. So buck up, and face the consequences of your political choices. Let’s all grant Trump another Mulligan while he criminalizes your favorite pastime.

Are you going to defend Monica Lewinsky and Paula Jones or no?

No because they have nothing to do with Trump. Stay on topic, please.

Bill Clinton was impeached for lying to Congress about his affair with Monica Lewinsky. .

Strictly speaking this is not the case. Four articles of impeachment were presented to the House of Representatives but the article claiming the President lied to Congress (Article 4) failed to pass. The House did agree that Clinton had lied to the Grand Jury in the Paula Jones case (Article 1) and that he had obstructed justice in the same case (Article 3).

Politicians who live private lives that to some involve immoral acts, pass laws with moral content, but even in the case of what one assumes are clear violations of the law upon investigation the law is in fact not rigid but flexible. The law is used to ban Craigslist and Backpage on the grounds that advertisements have been used to 'traffic' underage children for sexual purposes. Yet there are numerous states in the USA that permit child marriage, the famous case of the 11-year old in Florida forced to marry the man who raped her being but one example; the other the decision by New Jersey governor to permit child marriage for 'cultural reasons'.

The absence of a consensus on what is moral makes it difficult to frame laws that defend moral acts and condemn immoral acts. Just when you think there can be no opposition to the prohibition of sexual activity between an underage girl and a mature man, you discover it was legal for a 14 year old to marry a 74 year old in Alabama.

COSIGNED. Like I said earlier, Only TWO TYPES OF WOMEN feel threatened by the "Courtesan Class"(read: "escorts): WIVES & MISTRESSES. The ONLY time you'll see both sides team up is against "working girls/bois"

What a fucking hypocrite! This doesn't erase all the sexual assaults he's committed - and will continue to commit.

I"m probably going to receive hate but.. There's a dfference between accusations and convictions. Especially when 10-20 year old accusations come SO CLOSE to the elections. Very clear political motive but let's stay on topic. We all agree that this new bill is absolute TRASH and gov't overreach.

An Ethereum startup is offering $25,000 to the first 10 sex workers who come forward with information about clients who were also members of Congress who voted to pass the Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA).

The campaign is run by SpankChain, which had its ICO in October, and is one of several recent startups for sex on the blockchain. The company is attempting to break into the often expensive, discriminatory world of adult industry payment processing using the blockchain.



Ninety-seven senators voted to pass FOSTA-SESTA in March. It will become law if the president signs it this week. FOSTA-SESTA is a mashup bill that incorporates parts of the Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act (SESTA), and was framed by supporters as an anti-sex trafficking measure. Open internet activists and sex workers warned it would endanger people more, instead of helping actual victims of trafficking, by making websites more liable for what their users do and say on their platforms. In less than a month since its passage, there have already been repercussions on the industry and beyond—including the shutdown of Craigslist personals and stricter enforcement of Google Drive’s policies on sexual content.
Janice Griffith, co-founder of SpankChain and an adult performer, told me in an email that the company hasn’t yet decided what it will do with the information it gathers from this campaign. Whether the information is published will involve a “mutual decision” between SpankChain and the person coming forward, she said.

“We hopefully plan to utilize information gathered for leverage against elected officials whose political motives are hypocritical and selfish; pushing legislation that endangers instead of protecting–outlawing and putting the same people they purchase services and time from at risk,” Griffith said.



Many lawmakers have resigned because they’ve preached conservativism to their constituency and pass laws that hurt women while simultaneously practicing the behavior they speak out against. But sex worker-rights advocate Kate D'Adamo told me that SpankChain’s idea could further harm the industry. She said in an email that at first glance, it seems like SpankChain is “capitalizing on the stigma of the sex trade and using it to shame someone, while not caring about the collateral damage that this kind of thing does to sex worker rights.” D’Adamo compared it to the kind of political reward-money stunts pornograher Larry Flynt used to pull in the 90’s: “This is entirely about being angry about the bill and nothing to do with sex worker support.”
SpankChain says it plans to pay people who do come forward in either USD or Ethereum, whichever the sex worker prefers.
“We want to expose the hypocrisy and corrupt representation that exists within our government, working not to serve the people but attack them for their choices and allow lives lost as collateral damage under a charade of well-intent,” Griffith said. “SESTA does not serve to actually end sex trafficking or forced labor of any kind, rather it pushes consensual workers out of places they have created for themselves and criminals further underground.”
