2257 Statutes
 

2257 statutes should be jettisoned.

The real irony....
 

I'd say the biggest irony is that the companies on the front line in the war on "money laundering" can't even properly identify what is and isn't money laundering. So, even if you are the most pro big government, pro war on money laundering person there is, how can you like the idea that companies like CCBill can't even recognize what is or isn't money laundering?

One other thing...
 

Not only is there no nexus between IDing actors/actresses and this (FYI, I'm all for jettisoning 2257 laws), and not only do you miss the real irony being companies that have been conscripted by government to wage a war on "money laundering" not even being able to properly identity what is or isn't money laundering, but you write "while making money off people who...." First, if being an affiliate were my day job, I'd be starving. So I can't say I've made any substantial amount. It seems that many affiliate programs want to cut off webmasters as soon the webmaster actually begins to generate traffic. But that's a different story. Speaking of making money, though. You don't think CCBill is making money off actors and actresses? And I've documented where they are explicitly withholding affiliate commissions over some BS rule. Funny that doesn't upset you and you don't talk about these payment processing companies making money off porn actors and actresses! Why don't al the people who work at these payment processing companies have to show me their passports?

Furthermore, even if I had made a substantial sum of money from being an affiliate, that isn't exactly making money "off of" porn actors and actresses, as if the affiliate webmaster is exploiting porn actors and actresses in some way. As Robbie pointed out, affiliates are industry PARTNERS. Affiliates help promote and generate interest in and traffic for the entertainers. Instead of looking at it like affiliate webmasters make money off of adult entertainers, look at it like affiliate webmasters are helping the entertainers make money by promoting them!

That's kind of an elitist attitude to have toward people who help YOU make money!

There's something called KYC which makes it mandatory for all credit card processors and payment facilitators to err... Know Their Customers. I dont think you'll win this one

But not Know Your Affiliates. Sponsors are the customers of affiliates.

Xvideos, the most visited porn site in the world, now requires verification for every single model appearing in a porn scene uploaded to them. They ask for model releases and IDs. They have all the personal data you can think of including their intimate videos, phone numbers and home addresses - go check out how many site owners provide this sensitive data to those shitbags in order to get their shitty traffic, then ask yourself the question if the guys from Ccbill asking for verification of their affiliates (= their business partners) are really the bad ones in this industry. :2 cents:

Make a fentanyl bum pass as the president of your company, man . . .

it's 2024 and people are still using ccbill? I used ccbil many years ago and they have a terrible website interface. It's slow and full of bugs.
come on. Use bitcoin

I am a fan of crypto, but customers like a CCBill join page.

Run your adult paysite business accepting only bitcoin and tell us how much you make :1orglaugh

He'll make......a bit..... of coin. (See what I did there?)

Around $0.63.
Whoops now it's down to $0.52 sorry.

:1orglaugh

Summary of the thread:

Stop accepting the KYC bullshit and other nonsense laws of all these idiotic politicians.

And live alone on a desert island with no connection to the civilized world . . . :stoned

CCbill is trash, they are holding my 3k+ because they want to sent it via check or I must have a checking account at a US bank in order to receive it as they have stopped sending wires outside Europe and USA

2024 and they want to work as fucking dinosaurs
