My personal thoughts on 2257

So do you guys think 2257 could mean the end to free content? Not alot of sites going to hand out model info to every wacko with an adult site...

No, absolutely not. The IDs are only necessary for hardcore content (which makes no sense what so ever) and only for US webmasters. You'll just see a lot of American webmasters switching to softcore or getting out of adult. I never liked Americans anyway.

Oh wait...

I think this is already begining to happen. Although not every sponsor has made their position clear yet.

I think there is going to be alot of gnawing of fingers and gnashing of teeth by alot of people over this until the DOJ looses in court, as it has already in the 10th circuit, owing to it's invalid implementation of the statute.

As far as I know, the offending clause at § 75.1(c)(4)(iii), 'other than those activities identified in paragraphs (c)(1) and (2) of this section' is already and currently stricken in the 10th circuit. If I lived in that circuit I would ask my lawyer.
