2018-05-01 at 7:58 AM UTCi was just reading about this
Advocates for the bill—a mashup of the Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA) and the Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act (SESTA)—claim that it will help curb sex trafficking online. But because it could punish platforms for users’ behavior—specifically, discussions of prostitution and sex trade
so if somebody advertises themselves on fb, would the fed close it down?
would be interesting to put that to the test. imagine we brought down fagbook.

FOSTA-SESTA, signed into law in early April, was framed as a way to curb sex trafficking online. It amends Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, and holds websites more accountable for what users say and do on interactive platforms.
This sounds positive at the surface level—the harms of sex trafficking are well-known—but critics say the law is both too vague to help actual victims of trafficking, and too broad to avoid widespread harm to consensual sex workers. It limits how people talk about sex and sex work online, causing websites to shutter forums that host sex-based conversations preemptively. As general counsel of Cloudflare Doug Kramer put it, Congress didn’t bother to “do the hard work” to avoid this outcome.
After President Donald Trump signed FOSTA into law, the harm that workers and advocates warned of in op-eds, interviews, and on social media has come swiftly and relentlessly. The fallout has been devastating for many. Multiple advertising forums have shuttered, and mainstream services like Craigslist personals and Google Drive started cracking down on sexual content. Even sites operated outside of the US have been impacted: In April, Cloudflare banned alternative, Australia-based social network Switter, and cited FOSTA as the reason.
