Hey, just because the government has certain powers doesn't mean we can't trust them to not abuse those powers. I mean hell, that whole PATRIOT act thing has worked out pretty well right? :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Well that sucks.

It's coming.....

A Third Party Record Keeping service that will eliminate all affiliates major concerns regarding compliancy...

News at 11.

Well let's not forget that you created affiliates, and third parties. :thumbsup

tell them to move it and make it affordable.

Countdown to KB namedrop in
http://video1.streamlike.com/hosting/demo/countdown.gif

2257safe.com will be live by the Phoenix Forum
We are beta testing for the next few weeks.

We will have a formal press release out next week.

Sweet idea. How will this help secondary producers?

well that was one of my problems
however that can be solved with a requirement that to be complient there must be a primary producers designated within country. IF you buy from a foreign country producers either they setup ONE designated authoritiy for thier stuff, or release the docs openly and publically.

Since EVERYONE will not do that (ie canadians who have to worry about privacy rights would have to take the designate position) it would significantly reduce the administrative load of such a change.

IT much better than FORCING it to every secondary producer, and creating the wasted duplicate checks.

i dont even own a printer. can someone explain what this means for blogs, tgps and gallery submitters?

FWIW, the new regs do allow for third party record-keepers. So realistically there will be few actual places records have to be checked.

The solution you're proposing is actually much more complicated than simply requiring all producers/publishers to have records of what they produce/publish....even though it may be of benefit to you (and me) to do it this way....it's not a better way for the government to achieve their legitimate objective here. :2 cents:


oh, and
50 new enforceable laws.

It means you should hire a competent attorney, or find a new hobby.

I still think the basic issue here is innocent until proven guilty. and if you have a paysite or produce content you need to have id's and releases. but the basic issue is if you require 2nd producer to have 2257 docs you end up violating the basic right to privacy that these models and actors have. That their private information like home address and real name be given to any one operating a website. That just doesnt make sense.

I've been on the internet 15 years and I've never even seen CP

ok then you tell me how does pulling agents off sting operations that would catch pedo, and putting them on checking the id of 40 year old milfs 50 times over going to reduce kiddie porn.

Soon we are all going to have a lot more to worry about than 2257.

The new regs say redacted IDs are ok, so the only thing at issue is their legal name and date of birth. The records are only being provided to people who have a business relationship with the primary producer.....and nobody is forcing the performers to perform. They gave up their ID and signed a release when they got paid.

The courts would also say that protecting children is more important than protecting the privacy of people who are voluntarily performing in pornography.

Again just playing devil's advocate here....but judicious use of government resources isn't the topic of discussion here.
The topic is, do you have a better way of preventing child pornography and prosecuting those who engage in it?

I see alot of bitching and moaning about this and that and the other with the current law, but I have yet to see anyone offer a better alternative.

The reason this is important is if you look at laws like the Communications Decency Act and Child Online Protection Act. The court ruled that filtering software was a better and less intrusive way to protect children from viewing pornographic and other age innapropriate materials.
The court will always agree that the government has a compelling interest in protecting children....what you have to show is that there is a better and less intrusive way to do that than the one the government is currently trying to use. :2 cents:

I sale cheep:

2257docs.com
2257documentation.com
2257document.com
2257documents.com

I'm sure these places are going to pop up all over the Philippines and the other outsource companies.

Snake Doctor,
Maybe right.

The problem is that minor aren't rampant in the commercial porn industry in the United States. Sure there have been rare cases of a minor using a fake ID or a producer overlooking things, but it's just not necessary. Plenty of legal girls who look the part.

The U.S. still doesn't understand that the problem is global and a CP producer in Russia doesn't give two shits about our laws.

They can do better by working closer with other governments, especially ones where CP is prevalent. They can create legislation with ISPs that give them more power to shut down access to illegal sites that are coming into the United States. To be able to shut down processors and freeze assets of those who are involved (not unlike we do with terrorists). Yes that can sound a bit like China, but it's a much better way to stop CP than pestering legitimate businesses over photocopies of their IDs.

Not this way. How does his stop child porn? If you are retarded enough to think it does then you are retarded. Guess what child pornographer sare NOT going to get IDs. Also IDs can be FAKED. Child porn is already illegal so no other laws are need to bust someone for producing it.

Ok so let me ge this straight the fact that CP is already illegal and has hefty penalties doesn't stop someone from making CP but some bullshit record keeping law will? Like all the CP producers are thinking "Damn! With this 2257 law we have no choice but to stop now!" Seriously this is what you and the idiots in DC think will happen?

Sure enforce laws that have been on the books for DECADES. Here's one in my state if a 25 year old fucks a 16 year old that's illegal so anyone making a porn involving a 25 year old and 16 year old has already violated the law. Ergo they can be prosecuted. Pretty simple eh?

see this is the gun control debate all over again, enforce the laws that are on the books already, fully fund the impementation of those laws BEFORE writing new laws with increased resource requrements.

the problem is the government is not thinking straight, they didn't have the resources to resolve the issue under the original law and they changed the law to shift the burden to the secondary producers. The problem is that the law doesn't do that it increases the burden on the enforcement.

Better solutions.

Optional registration on a person bases so that MILF would only need to get id checked once for every movie they act in (see aim)
primary producers within the country being designate for all licienced copies of movies so that each liciencee would not have to be checked
foreign producers would be required to at least setup a designated agent of record within country
take all the money that has been wasted fighting the adult industry in court and all the money used to do all those extra redundantly wasteful checking
use it to hire more agents to do sting operations to catch pedos

fuck the fbi:pimp

No shit. All these fearmongers make out like CP is everywhere. I've seen fucking double anal, even triple anal, scat, felching, bukkake, octopus in japanese chicks asshole, 2 girls and a cup, 1 guy and jar, Mr hands, chick getting fucked by a great dane, *******, lemon party, goatse and never never never ever even by accident seen any CP. And I've been on the net since 1999. Now where is all this CP?

You can't prove the problem isn't rampant in commercial porn without having records to prove it.

The problem is global, but that doesn't mean the U.S. should ignore the activities that occur within it's own borders just because Russia may not care about what goes on in theirs.
Remember, the purpose of these laws isn't to stop CP from being distributed to the sickos who want to view it....the purpose is to prevent children from being exploited.
Processing, hosting, and all that other shit doesn't matter. In most cases CP is produced without a profit motive. The point is to stop the production, and to have the tools to prosecute those who do produce it....stopping the distribution is a secondary concern really.

Calm down there hoss. Try to detach yourself from the situation and look at it rationally.

Other than the obvious pre-pubescent stuff, how can the government prove that minors were used in a production if there are no records kept?

You're correct that someone making CP will not keep records, and under this system they will go to jail, for not keeping records. With no system like this at all, those people go free because you can't "prove" that the performers in question were underage at the time of filming.

If you read the court decision, you would understand why only needing ID's for models who "looked young" won't work.

This is what you're not understanding. You talk about enforcing laws already on the books, and that CP was already illegal.
You can't prove CP took place unless you have records. The CP laws are basically unenforceable without 2257 (except in the obvious cases where really young people are used)...but for anyone who is past puberty, you can't know for sure....so records are necessary.

The govt is thinking straight as far as I can tell....you're the one not thinking straight. You're thinking in terms of what would be best for you, not in terms of what will allow the government to prevent CP and in the event it does occur, prosecute those responsible.

You still haven't shown me a better way for the govt to do that.

again i am not saying "looks young" would be the criteria for the OPTIONAL model "super id"
say something like a year which you must have been born before.
each year you bring the year forward one
so in year 2000 anyone who was born before say 1975 could get a super id
in 2001 anyone born before 1976 and so on.
It would eliminate all the redundant checking that the government officials would have to do by all the models who fall in that catagory.
IT would create an economic insentive to producing older niche porn (milf) because there would be less legal paper work, and therefore more profit.


ok so tell me how giving "super id" system for people who were 25 years and older in 2000 prevent one CP case from going forward.

every person checking one of those old models ids is a person who could be working on catching a pedo so i can clearly see who not doing it let more kiddie porn to exist.

Now I'm not going to give you hell.. and 2257 does not bug me in anyway..
Records should have been kept from the start (on the program end not the webmaster end)..
And Im not in the USA...

But seeing as you asked..

Just like some other people here I have seen this shit online.
I have also done my best to get it removed..
So as the Gov what would I do..


1-
Move faster on reports.. hell a dmca to pirates bay works just as fast as they do..

2-
How about fix the email that is used to report it to the FBI so that the email address works...
Same goes for just about every gov't run reporting email/page that I have ever used..

3-
Train their staff better...
If these ass holes can find each other online to trade the shit why is it so hard to find them?

4-
Give the public a better means to report what they find online..
Simple enter url here and quick notes from the submitter..

5-
Nicely ask google to place the full first page of results with keywords that could be guessed as someone looking to report it ..
asacp is #1 for what I just searched for where is the fbi link etc..

6-
why do I have to give my info and jump from site to site..
Shit using a direct link on the asacp's website on where to go to report something I was then told to go to a dif website.. and I still got lost.. some endup at dead ends when you finally get to where it looks like you have to go to report things.
when making a report..
If Im wrong.. oops my bad...but it can quickly be seen if Im right or wrong in most cases..
If Im right...
Giving them personal info of the submitter leads to people thinking ..
"Will they be coming to bust my ass.."
After all if you see it online that means you have hit a website with it.. IE you just downloaded the images.

7-
Why is it so hard for the govt to but a big clear button say report website here..
Click.. got to form... fill out submit.. done..

8- you know what fuck it.. Im done..
If people care so much I should never be able to click a link on a website linking to one of the few pages that I feel can really do something about what I have seen and get a 404

http://www.ecpat.net/eng/index.asp = 404
linked from:
http://www.asacp.org/page.php?conten...f5d05ad2fcfd7d
(as were all the other run around's and dead ends I was just bitching about)

btw why the sessid? its not like I logged in to a members section...

so ya first step.. 1 easy to find simple form to report this shit... that submits to all gov world wide so that if the site is hosted in Russia someone there gets a copy.. your ave. surfer cant track a DNS IP, trace route or read html.. And the ones that can are to busy downloading porn..

Based on that opinion, secondary producers (including webmasters) must comply with 2257. There is no provisions re "user submitted" content though. However, the language is broad enough to be interpreted that it SUPERSEDES the DMCA.

:( @ illegal tubesites

If I pissed anyone off I'm sorry..
one of the few things that gets me this pissy and going is this crap..

On AMC the other night they had a 12-13 year old Brooke Shields play a prostitute in a movie and in one seen she was in the bath tub and she stood up and you could see her tits( what there was of them ) this was her, no body double. That's considered fucking art. Ok whatever.

Then they aren't stopping CP they are stopping bad record keeping. People making CP rather go to jail for failed record keeping than CP. That's like saying putting a murderer in jail for jaywalking for 30 days( because you couldn't prove he committed murder but can prove jaywalking ) aint too shabby because at least he went to jail for something.

That the rub. Does the owner of a porn shop that has a magazine with girls of questionable age have to have IDs for those girls? No if the feds want to know how old they are the get the info from the people that made the magazine. How is a website different?

fucking snitch.

send someone to the feds because you are a rat.

good job idiot

2257? Who needs it?

Click here for 2257 Free Hardcore PORN!

Seriously, is the new administration really gonna focus on 2257?

2257 is not made to protect children from abuse, but administrative requirement to protect commercial models in greyzone production. Why the hell should real child abusers worry about IDs?

The propose of 2257 is bust to pornographers balls. if it was just about ages, it would be a simple file in a cabinet.

you give me too much credit, but thank you. ::pimp

A 2257 thread? How 90's!

It's obviously impossible to have a rational discussion about this here, because the people willing to discuss it are too emotionally involved.

I don't like this law, but I do understand the need for it. I don't think it's a case of the government harrassing pornographers, it's a law that is necessary in order to prosecute real CP.

(I'll say this again....how can you prove a model was underage if there was no ID copied at the time of production? The answer is you can't. Therefore someone could shoot CP and never get caught because there would never be proof that the model was underage. With the 2257 law, that person would at least go to jail for not keeping records, and having that person locked up would protect children)

Nobody is willing to answer this question or provide a better alternative.
Gideon tried, but the method he came up with is actually much more complicated and harder to implement and enforce. He just likes it because it wouldn't require him to keep records, it would put all of the responsibility on someone else.

Everyone else seems to be doing just what we always do here....bitch about what we don't like about this law, without offering a better way to do it.
