Shocking to see people defending one of the most exploitative industries out there just because its the republicans prosecuting them
Florida can drown in hell
I think they literally will, eventually.
Isn’t this like mainstream advertising for these sites in places they can’t advertise?
Republicans so fuckin’ stupid they’re trying prohibition again, but this time with porn.
Well, at least they don’t already have an issue with organized pedophile rings operating within their state, right?
I personally can’t wait for people to start making porn in the backwoods and running away from the cops while fucking in the bed of their pickups.
shits gonna be wild.
Oh they’re coming for everything but alcohol.
And pedos!
Why would they go after themselves.
To quote dear leader who is most definitely implicated and ran his campaign on releasing the Epstein files, “Are we still talking about Epstein!?”
republicans: who fucks children?
Every day. Forever.
Prohibition was a failure as a moral crusade but enormously successful as a money making and politicking endeavor.
slapping the hood of the police state: You can fit so many more cops in this thing!
While I won’t contribute to their defense funds because they have all the money in the world, I do support them in spirit. You can’t beat the porn industry. You can only temporarily inconvenience it.
Suck it, Florida.
My favorite is when the sites just block access to IPs in those states instead of trying to comply with the laws with a message that says “Your state won’t let us do business and we refuse to violate your privacy.” VPNs gonna see a huge spike in purchases, and lots of angry gooners gonna start writing their representatives as their favorites sites drop off one by one.
In my home town of Houston, the city decided to crack down on the number of topless bars (which developers considered an eyesore). But they still recognized the bigger establishments as lucrative sites for labor exploitation popular with the O&G business community.
So they found a middle ground. There is now a ceiling on licensed venues, with 16 registrations permitted inside city limits. Each club holding a registration must contribute to a $1M pot that’s provided to the Houston PD’s “anti-sex trafficking” division. This affords police a fund by which they can do “undercover investigation” of establishments.
Everyone wins.
This sounds very much like the mafia wetting their beak.
Seethe hard Santis.
This is disgusting. Does anyone have a list of sites so I can block them all right now?
It’s in the title lol. Also new ones pop-up daily especially international ones. Use Bing to find the videos then see the domain they’re hosted at and go from there. When searching big, put xxx in the search as well and turn off the safesearch bs.
“Oh, those disgusting revenge sites. But there are so many! Which ones!!!”
I feel like porn websites have money and lots of reasons to want to burn Florida.
Meanwhile, Robin L. Rosenberg of the Southern District of Florida is the judge that blocked the release of the Epstein files.
Republicans think of the children a little more than they should.
Only when it comes to policing morality. When it comes to gun violence, fuck them children; they are on the own.
- Ronnie De Santis
fuck them children
literally, i suppose, in the case of the republicans
or child marriages (legal pedophila), or protecting pedophiles, then they literally fuck the children
TIL about a bunch of new porn sites cause republicans cant understand the streisand effect.
Well now I have some new sites to visit
If these companies wanted to spin up a lobbying and PR group, they would have huge reach.
Which would cause other problems down the line, but they’d crush this particular problem.
I gotta admit, I’d love to see what their lobbying could accomplish.
Two problems here.
One is jurisdiction. If the website is not incorporated in Florida, has no offices in Florida, and does not use Florida servers, why should they be subject to Florida law? Everything they do is completely legal in their home jurisdiction.
This sort of enforcement is basically impossible on the internet. If anybody can access any website from anywhere, how is the website supposed to keep up with hundreds or thousands of changing jurisdictions each with their own legal requirements? And why should they have to?Second is interstate commerce clause of the Constitution. It reserves to the federal government the right to regulate interstate commerce. I would think that demanding that a out of state business change its business practices would fall afoul of that.
Now it could be argued that since the website advertises in Florida and accepts sign ups from Florida residents, that they do business in Florida. However the simple solution there would be to disable payment for Florida residents.
In 2018 SCOTUS ruled that states can require businesses with no physical presence or relationship to a state to collect sales tax for the state, effectively invalidating the Constitution’s Interstate Commerce Clause. Florida may be hoping this precedent along with a corrupt, illegitimate fascist majority in SCOTUS, will allow states to project their own local laws onto the entire country.
So that’s why every site started charging sales tax at the same time. Wonderful.
Yup. When it comes to fucking the people the SCOTUS votes in unison.
If the customers are still in Florida and they still earn money in Florida, they are still subject to Florida law.
The way they handle conflicting requirements in different regions is to use regional flags. It’s quite simple and it’s been done for a long time in more tightly regulated fields like e.g. online shopping.
If it’s legal to sell weed online in some areas and illegal in others, you can’t just say “Well, our servers are in a region where it’s legal so we send weed all over the world.”
Wait, wouldn’t it be legal for a country with legal weed to send it, just illegal go receive it in a jurisdiction where it’s illegal? Like if I lived in the Netherlands I couldn’t be arrested for mailing it to the US, but it’d get stopped at the border.
That’s a perfect analogy, I love downloading weed from websites.
Use illegal pornography instead if you like that analogy better.
Because they offer their services to people living in Florida.
Same reason as to why you should include VAT on your prices if you sell to EU citizens
You know what’ll also protect the children? Releasing the Epstein files.
I mean, for once, this isn’t just a chant. Epstein was the supplier but we have yet to nail his customers to the wall.
