Unfortunately it is going to go from bad to worse. Trump is going to sign this bill with a vengeance especially after the 60 minutes interview with Story Daniels. I am glad I also have my 9-5 job. They have used child sex trafficking as an excuse to declare war on sex workers. Most of these politicians don’t gice a shit about children. I believe a lot of politicians are pedophiles and of course all of them are hypocrites.

It’s a done deal. Citivibe shutdown and Craigslist Erotic Encounters W4M and every personal is shutdown. Someone told me Reddit is shutting down any forums related to escorting.

I predict BP will shutdown personals in a little while along with Eros. Don’t be surprised if FB IG Twitter will shutdown anybody’s account suspected of being an escort. Especially those FB groups with escorts.

It is open season on escorts, clients and of course agency owners, pimps, simps, madams who use the net and let us not forget any website owner who allows escort ads. Doomsday is here providing on the net will be a thing of the past in a minute.

It is hard to know for sure what will happen if they ban internet provider ads. The street will not be the only way to make money besides the internet. You have bars and casinos too. You also have strip clubs. But a lot of sex workers will not be able to adapt and will be ran out of the adult entertainment business. You definitely will have a lot less sex workers. LE might decide to crackdown on the street too if the law passes so we just have to wait and see.

If they shut the net down for sex workers they will have nowhere to go but the streets. Then the streets will be wide open again like in the 1970’s and early to mid 1980’s. But unfortunately for 80-90% of providers on the net they won’t work the street because these providers are just not cut out to work in the street and will have to get a job. So with way less providers and still plenty of hobbyists there will be a way bigger demand than supply so prices will easily triple and even quadruple. A provider will easily be able to make a thousand or two a day in the street. But the only catch is in order to work the street a provider will have to be with a pimp. You will see hardly anymore gfe either because that is very rare on the street unless it is a drug addict and almost all pimps forbid their girls from doing gfe. So a lot of providers and hobbyists are not going to like this. I think law enforcement has come to the conclusion that prostitution is way more easier to control on the street.You have a unlimited amount of providers, managers and pimps on the net but you have a limited amount of providers and pimps on the street. They can also easily verify a providers age easier on the street to combat underage prostitution because providers will be visible on the street. They can also arrest providers easier on the street. At first law enforcement tolerated providers on the net because they didn’t like it on the street. They now have realized it is easier to control on the street than on the net because by shutting the net down to providers it will drastically reduce the amount of providers and the ones left will all be visible on the street.
