selfishgene commented on Manhattan DA says his office to stop prosecuting prostitution   npr.org/2021/04/21/989588... · Posted by u/pmiller2

I have over a decade in the technical operation of escort ad sites. Laws like FOSTA/SESTA make it far worse.

Very few sex workers are trafficked. Sites like backpage had a staff of many people who silently reviewed ads and reported trafficking tips. They were the #1 source of tips to the government. Backpage got shut due to a pissing contest between the owner and a AZ lawmaker IIRC.

Legalizing is humane.

The only trafficking I have witnessed is in California AAMPs. Gangs bring over women to work off “debt” and they move them to a new city every week or two to prevent them from making friends.

There is plenty of trafficking out there even in countries where it is legal.

This was just on hacker news today:
