The only way for advertisers to avoid risk of being charged with trafficking is now not to review or screen ads. How can this possibly help?

Also, any ad or social media content flagged by anyone (even a tweet) is now a risk for the website if they review it and decide to keep it.

So any troll or anti wanting to silence us could report us as a "potential trafficking victim". Twitter would risk being a "trafficker".

This is a huge attack on free speech online, and can only make it harder to identify and help true trafficking victims. Madness.

@EscortingAdvice Right, SAVE's an amendment to JVTA, which is tied to Lynch's nomination. Caught up now, I think. Thank you.
