Putting explicit content inside an iframe or hotlinking to explicit content on your sponsors server is a very bad idea.

Do you think the stooge that works for the DOJ and is inspecting your website is going to take the time to check if the banner that shows a chick giving a guy a blowjob is actually hotllinked, or that the picture showing a girl that appears to be under age having anal sex is actually within an iframe and do you seriously think a judge would care if once it got to court you pointed out that fact?

Do you really want to be explaining to some feds sitting in your house that the picture they think is on your website is actually hosted somewhere else and isn't really on your website, it's just an illusion? And if they don't listen or don't care, do you really want to spend time and money defending yourself in court to prove your point just because some sponsor told you they THOUGHT it was okay?

I've talked to a lot of attorneys about 2257 and almost all of them think that hotlinking will be problematic.

The content is on your website for the world to see, and I don't care where it's hosted, if it looks like it's on your website, it's on your website.
