There’s been so much going on lately in the phone sex / adult webmaster world, that I just want to share some links here to pertinant information. Mostly, I do this for my own resources, and so my girlfriends have the info they need to run their businesses effectively. (Nobody’s commented on my bdsm story, so I haven’t worked on the next part yet.)
Blue Law Makes Webmasters See Red
Age records in the porn industry are nothing new: Since federal law 18 U.S.C. 2257 went into effect 15 years ago, everyone who produces porn has been required to prove that performers are over 18. (According to adult industry attorney J.D. Obenberger, the regulations were inspired by congressional outrage at a hard-core video performance by 15-year-old Traci Lords.)
Now, the law is getting stricter. The new enforcement regulations would require webmasters that don’t produce material to keep age records for every image that shows or implies sexual activity on their sites. (Sites that simply feature straightforward nudity are exempt.)
2257 Regs a Boon to Patriotic Porn Producers
Allowing the use of foreign-issued ID only when the producer and talent are outside the United States is certainly unwise, as it will cause great difficulty for the industry, drive much money out of the economy, and ultimately mean the new regulations will serve as the only steps that the Bush administration ever has taken to stop American jobs from being lost to cheaper foreign workers. Nevertheless, a bad result from bad law does not trip the wire to activate the absurd result doctrine—and the threshold for the employment of this doctrine is quite high.
