President signed it. Unless I am missing it no one is going to go to bat for this. It is over.

Has anyone heard from her in the last few weeks? Jess is the tall blonde RedskinsAllDay introduced to the forum. She hasn't been answering her text or phone.

I think it will be a while before the backpage we know is returned. I also can't believe someone overseas or over the border hasn't created a new form of backpage. Seems to be a lucrative business venture to jump on so long as you are not based in the US.

If the Backpage seizure was executed as a Civil Forfeiture, it's extremely unlikely that it will ever be restored. Assets seized according to this doctrine are almost NEVER returned to their owners, even if their owners are never charged with a crime or if they're acquitted. Technically, the case is brought by the Government against the ASSET in a Civil proceeding where the ASSET has none of the rights afforded a human defendant. It's an old concept drawn from English Common Law. Though constitutionally defective, the courts have upheld the practice.

Mongers and providers will eventually adjust and adapt, just as they did after Craigslist shut down its adult ads section in 2010 under pressure from a number of state attorneys general. However, the adjustment period will be quite difficult. And in the end, we'll see if the Justice Department prevails or whether they made fools of themselves yet again.

" BP / CL can go to the ACLU or even you as an individual because you as a citizen want to search the "Personal Ads" to find a match and the government is over reaching with their authority taking these formats away from you. People's right to express themselves to connect with other people to find a match out weights and unlawful activity that may also occur on that website.

Hoes currently use dating apps like Tinder and POF. Also Facebook and Instagram and tweeter, are they going to go after those behemoths as well? I think the answer is no. There is something Un-American about these new tactics,. Cellular phones is a major component for providers to conduct their business, are they going to shut down Sprint, AT&T and T-Mobile and Cricket, Metro PCS etc. . Again I think the answer is no.

The thing that may save BP / CL is their is not like Silk Roads, which was explicitly dedicated to illegal activity. BP / CL had other posting to sell cars and other items. If a case went all the way to the Supreme Court, I think they will win. Though they will not be back online in the immediate future, I think they will come back.

The reality is that the possible liability to companies offering a platform for advertising isn't worth it to them to host ads, but this does speak to some major issues we face in our Country. The drug policies failed, we have countless murders and incarceration for something people want to do, so instead of senseless laws being passed to stop it, legalize it and tax it. The murder rate would drop to zero in 48 hours. As far as prostitution, escorting and massage goes, it's the same thing. Legalize it and tax it. I would happily offer my services for licensing to make sure they are qualified and meet minimum service levels to get a license. We are suppose to be a country built on liberty and at this point it is being curtailed and will create yet a deeper black market. What will eventually happen is a decentralized server offering file sharing around the world will be developed and an add-on or application like kodi will be developed and deny the reach of government action to enforce. The government will have to take on every computer owned around the world and the budget in the Justice Department can't afford to police the billions of people and computers around the world.

As for junkies, maybe this will force them to consider getting clean. I'm grateful for groups like AA, NA and other organizations which have helped some of my relatives achieve and maintain sobriety.

I'm disgusted with the recent turn of events concerning Backpage, Craigslist, Eccie, TER and other sites, and I'm disgusted with the lack of respect our federal, state and local governments have for the Constitution. But that doesn't and shouldn't mean we'll see an increase in rape, robbery or other types of crime.

Rape is bad and respecting women's boundaries huh?

Well that aside, it's well known and studied that when the government intervenes like this, violent crime does go up. That is economics 101 and in fact, this very situation is the exact example I was taught (one of many of course) when discussing supply and demand. I guarantee you'll see an increase in rape, robbery, and other types of crime over time.
