i think the law allows victims to sue the company that provides the advertising to the traffickers
the effect is the same as banning it though
imho it's unconstitutional but, we have a slew of unconstitutional laws that are enforced on the daily in USA
ho's are pretty resourceful though, this will be a minor blip
they'll advertise as maids or some shit
While it allows for private law suits, the law is aimed at making website and app owners liable / responsible for the posting of it's users, making those websites subject to criminal prosecution and fines. It is a nefarious law, they wrap it in an 'anti-sex-trafficking' label to stifle opposition. Who is going to come out against an 'Anti-sex trafficking' bill and look good?
Even though the bills supporters intentions may have been good, this is an attack on the freedom of speech on the internet that has far reaching consequences past escort ads.
One might be right to wonder if a website like this, hosted in the U.S. shouldn't be considering their options when you read things like this:
"SESTA/FOSTA expands federal prostitution law to cover those who use the Internet to “promote or facilitate prostitution.” "
