No real new ground covered, but an interesting take.

She talks in such generalities that she's largely uninteresting and comes off as not being especially informed or exceptionally talented at critical thinking.

Article is weak.  The sky is not falling and Craigslist Erotic Services/Adult Services closing is good for everyone.

If the Internet manages to get "cleaned up", which I believe is highly unlikely, we'll all have to do it "old school".  Back to when there were more brothels, and you had to develop, over time, your personal list of ATFs., a list that you had to keep refreshing.

JLWest - don't see that on my local site. What city did you see that on?

I've followed a number of discussions today where both gents and ladies are doubtful that this is the same CL.  There are numerous red flags surrounding this new site...the copy seems very "off" to many of us...the way the domains were registered...the promotion of another website from which to post images and create a link.  

Hopefully this new site is legit.  

This is not craigslist.This site was around before CL shut down.This site steals ladies ads from different cities and different websites and post them on their site.This site doesn't get traffic thus the reason for stolen ads.This site stole my ads and posted it on their site thankfully was able to get them removed.Don't be fooled.

Thanks for commenting, Jaydalee!  I'm sure the community appreciates you sharing about your experience.

I delved a little deeper (ever the curious me!) and noticed this new CL site registered this domain in May of 2009, a month after the murder in Boston.  It just seems whoever this new CL is, they were counting on the original CL to lose their erotic services section and wanted to cash in on their own opportunity.  Just a thought...

In any event, be safe and have fun everyone!

Legal crackdowns, law suits, 2257, etc.

Far simpler solution:
1. Legalize it.
2. Tax it.
