If it's a nude pic then it is subject to 2257. So, sites like adultfriendfinder will need solid 2257 info on every person who submits a naked pic *and* a link to that documentation. Whoa.

What about people who use free content? Paysites will be required hence forth to include 2257 documentation in the free content downloads?

Basically, if you publish naked content on the 'net and live in the US, then you need to become a secondary custodian of records.

Am I missing something in my understanding of the 2257 rules? My reading has always been that sexually explicit content is covered, but mere nudity and simulated sexual acts are exempt.

Of course, it's easy to see that it's a good practice to have model releases/contracts/licenses/etc on hand for any sort of content, but this is seperate issue from the specifc recordkeeping and labeling requirements of 2257.
