Not just those sections.  Entire site is now stating it has been seized by the Federal Government.

Exactly, that’s what’s so ridiculous about it all. They already have to power to do what they need to do to stop human trafficking without these bills!

"The Cloud Act" in addition to SESTA/FOSTA is going to make things even worse.  That new law was buried in the recent Federal Spending Bill that Trump signed.  I believe even adult sites that are located overseas (perhaps Switter too), may become vulnerable with this new act.

No worries, Dennis is going to save the girls out there. Just legalize and work for him. Dumbass.

Exactly. It makes it hard when girls defend him but know things aren't right. I guess being close to a z list celebrity makes you feel good. Just made my skin crawl.

Today I notice that there is a new onebackpage.com up and running.  So maybe there was a backup plan.  A couple of NE houses are advertising there.
