Now that Sessions is AG, I think he's going to make it a massive pain in the ass for us. He can't ban porn but they will find a way to make it really difficult.

Sen. Sessions seems to be a shoo-in for confirmation in the US Senate. Sen. Sessions is the AG appointee until confirmed, that said;

A strong-arm anti-porn crusade may have some very dark consequences.

Today is not 10 years ago. A whole subnet exists within the Internet where no government has control. Porn may just move to a "safe place" making legitimate law enforcement very difficult. Digital currencies can be used and the whole porn economy will go underground.

Ironic isn't it?

How can they ban porn?

I want you all to think before you reply and come up with ideas.

My position is. It's 100% impossible.

Its all political.

You have to understand the people in the USA Paul -- you think you do but you really don't.

Take the coalition of voters that elected Trump. Why do you think Mike Pence is where is is now -- Vice President Elect?

Pence represents that minority within that voter coalition that wants to "ban" porn and bring Bible education back into public schools. Creationists that reject Darwinism. Real knuckle-draggers.

So, you harass the targeted Internet porn and reduce its footprint while the foreign owned tube rape the porn content industry. It's a game to win a voter block. Half of the government is probably a fappin' a good part of the day. Maybe, it is a wage recovery action.

There cannot be a ban but they will bring back obscenity trials and start passing laws to curtail both production and distribution/billing. I think they'll try to cut off billing pressuring visa/mc to not process for adult within the US, then this industry is FUCKED. How did that work out for online gambling?

Correct. For gambling they made it impossible to deposit or withdraw funds from US soil. These fly-by-night check issuing companies would pop up for a little bit only to be shut down or take the money and run.

Now there are zero US players on poker sites unless they are using a VPN with an out of country address. The AG could easily think of a way to throw a wrench into the whole industry. Perhaps just issuing a cumbersome requirement on producers, webhosts or cc companies that slowly starves the US market.

Edit: Look at what the UK is doing - UK Government Confirm Move to Force ISPs into Blocking "Adult" Sites - ISPreview UK

As that proves. It had little effect on the industry.

Explain to us how he can ban porn.

If the gambling world is any measurable indicator, bans do not work.

Did it not cost you money and time to be compliant? Did you ever have to cancel a shoot because of lack of docs when she was clearly over 18? Did you ever have to dump a shoot because of questionable docs? We still maintain above bar 2257 documentation just in case. It had effect, trust me.
