About time
doesn't surprise me.
They wanted Backpage to take down along time. They did everything they could shutdown the sex advertisement section. I don't buy the claim that Backpage was aware of child trafficking. It doesn't matter, they got rid of Craig's List advertising and limited to nothing. They got rid of escorts.com. If they get rid of Backpage then next two big websites of their list is Eros and The Erotic Review. They used the claim of the child trafficking to garner enough attention to shutdown the site. It doesn't matter advertising sex online will get far more difficult.
fuck social justice warriors. that said eros does vet, i doubt backpage does as much vetting. and to be fair, human trafficking is a big issue.
They knew because you can find online news articles about traffickers using backpage to sell minors.

So should we hold Ford Motor Company liable for a small percentage of people who drive drunk and kill people in their cars?
I think a better analogy would be would you arrest the CEO of the drug companies who manufacture oxycontin given that drug's link to the heroin epidemic in this country.
I'm not naive in thinking that child trafficking is/was taking place on Backpages. But going after the easy target is not going to solve the problem.
