@emptywheel that's another possibly scary question. They weren't primarily a site for ads, but for discussion forums. -
@melissagira really? among sex workers? or sex workers and clients -
@emptywheel there were free sex work ads, free discussion forums for workers & customers, and then a paid customer review section -
@melissagira Oh that is crazy. -
@emptywheel maybe someone could make a speech case on this. Or on section 230 of CDA -- because this is all user-generated content -
@melissagira@emptywheel Can anyone confirm that political speech occured on the site? -
@MikeChaseACLU
@emptywheel probably. I know it did. Also health outreach. - 2 more replies
