This is all so crazy! Always good to be proactive. Does anyone know if Wix has US or off shore servers?
I'm seeing only non-US cities on the Ad Board. Is this a temporary issue with the site or is it due to SESTA?
With providers via their email or twitter. Both can be found under our profile. To my understanding US sites need to be removed although I’m not sure a chat board such as this is included.
Hope everyone still enjoys their playtime. Be safe and connect carefully.

I am so sad that NY ad board is gone....I didn't post much in there because, living/hosting in Manhattan, I have many regulars.
But I feel for the ladies with paid hotels, ads, airfares to tour NYC and now they cannot get the TER guys to book them.
The bill doesn't reach outside the USA. They can't get interpol to haul you in
Any portion of a company’s activities that occur in the US fall under the jurisdiction of US law. They absolutely can get Interpol to haul them in. We have bad relations with Mexico right now, but Mexico still extradites drug dealers to us. Countries will do the same when the US asks for someone wanted on a child sex trafficking charge.
TER and other companies are scared because their lawyers are telling them they’ve got good reason to be scared.
they are all vanishing. now is the time to get the list of providers you like to see before this site is gone to us

That does not matter one bit.
Guess the next thing will be closing all provider profiles in the US and no reviews allowed in the US?
Guess being out of this country doesn’t help, or they have offices and owners in the US.
Apparently there’s a clause in the bill that allows for retroactive reach. Meaning if a company feels they need to adapt policies in order to comply with the law, they need to do it now.
Second fallacy floating around in the comments is the idea that overseas persons/entities are beyond the reach of US law enforcement and civil courts. The majority of Mueller’s indictments are for people who lived/acted overseas while violating US law. Hackers/torrent players have been extradited back to the US. Julian Asaange is still living in an embassy to avoid extradition to the US, even though the original charges against him back in Sweden have been dropped. These escort ad executives and owners apparently have decided that it’s not worth the risk of winning a diplomatic standoff over a child sex trafficking charge. They probably figure their home countries aren’t going to come to therir defense.
It may be temporary. The full reach of the law won’t be known until the bill is signed into law and the Justice Department writes implementing rules. But until then, the companies are deciding to risk being the first test case of this new legislation.
Changing now won’t protect them from retroactive. But that part I’m sure will be challenged in court and removed, what a waste of time and money.
It would be nice to get some kind comment from TER about their plans going forward when they know, that is! I was just getting ready to post an ad on the NY Board for an upcoming trip in April!

Nobody will have an idea of full impact until the Presidentbsigns the bill and then the Justice Department publishes the implementation rules into the Federal Register. That will take months.
Further consequences won’t be known until first cases are prosecuted and then the courts get the opportunity to weigh in. That could be years.
I agree it’s not near final. But I wonder if sites are currently being threatened pending the full implementation? Wouldn’t surprise me if they were threatening sites directly right now.
Fortunately I have enough contacts who will love to see me more often than before, and not ready to retire.
As long as threads like this aren’t deleted I can always go back to see who posted and see them.
I agreed to this. Anyone who knows or happen to hear update on this, please update us. I rarely participate in discussion but will check back often. PLEASE UPDATE US ALL !! I rarely use Twitter so without TER, is this the end of our provider career ??

fuck this is going to suck
Salem witch hunt all over!
They'll start with the easy targets and move on down the line.
Actually, it's the fear alone that's hurting the good people, while the evil people will keep going. But it's about posturing & perceived purity, not helping people.
So ladies clean up your twitter profiles and deeds. No nudes, no posting of availability in the US either
Yes!
And for those ranting at us for protecting ourselves & unfollowing those ladies that don't tone down to vanilla... Do you not get what's going on? Shame on anyone ranting at those who pay attention and are keeping safe.
I jUst made a new twitter account 5 minutes ago.
I don’t want to start a new account off on the wrong foot so I want to be clear as to how to proceed in the future.

May U ask,
What exactly do you mean by no posting of availability in the US?
Should we not follow our girlfriends as their account might not be ‘clean’ ?
Is it wise not to retweet our girlfriends anymore?
Any other DONT DO’s for us ladies to be aware of in our efforts to be proactive?

The rich get richer, now they are the only ones with access to hookers. FML twice!
I think the website operators are operating from a position of justified paranoia.
There’s been bitching here for ages about ID screening for hobbyists. There may come a time when the only dating sites that are “safe” are ones that deal with legal age ID verified providers.
How many providers are going to delist and how many hobbyists are going to tell TER to remove the reviews they've posted?
Unless you’re caught posting fake reviews LoL
TER owns the reviews. No monger can ask for their reviews to be removed.
but TER won't usually comply unless there is a very good reason.
A girl on Twitter said her gmail was shut down. So, no client emails for her.
Another said they Locked her twitter account apparently for violating content rules. In my opinion it's wise to change our websites to something Vanilla such as Photography, Cars, Cupcakes whatever so at least they can connect with us. Just send that link to your clients and change your twitter to a vanilla one So long as you stay present. Sure don't want to lose access to your google voice contacts or gmail contacts. Just sayin!
Not sure what’s going on but It seems ter has made the US ad boards “private”, and are just no longer open to the “public” . I have been redirected to email as shown here to regain access. Maybe this is a good thing that ter is taking precautionary measures to make the ad boards private & no longer viewable to the public?
Log in
Go to my ter
Go to my board posts...
Here you’ll find a history of your discussion and ad board posts (providers will have more ad board posts as clients rarely post to the ad board unless commenting to an ad)
Click on a link to a previous ad board posted by yourself.
That’s is where I received the following message...
Times they are a’ changing. Perhaps ter is as well due to these recent events. We will adapt & find a way. We always have. In the meantime providers should also take precautions. Edit any pictures. advertisements, websites, and twitters to be as discrete as possible.

but I'm not in the habit of posting on any ad boards, and I think I'm not alone on that.
Is there any other way to get to a page whereby one can request access to the ad boards?
Same here. I was told long ago NOT to post to provider ads and I mostly tried to follow that.
Sorry cannot I asked directly
Hi,
Currently the US ad boards are down pending further review of the recent law and its outcome.
Thank you for your support,
--TER Support Staff
For what it’s worth, I consulted with P411 and they said that they are a 100% Canadian company and are subject to there laws not the USA’s.
But some people think that because they advertise US-based escorts, they will be held liable for some shit.
Of course, no one knows the implications of this bill until they actually convict offenders.
If everyone on p411 can prove they are escorting voluntarily without force, fraud, or coercion, the feds should have no case, and sesta fosta should not apply.
Uh huh. If the ad hits a US server ... guess what? A US federal crime has happened. Not only that, but is it a federal crime (under the new law) to access sites that promite prostitution? Im not a liar, I mean lawyer, but will it be a felony to advertise services in the US?- even if you are doing it in another country? My guess is yup, and the feds have a 98% conviction rate and unlimited legal resources. They make the laws, enforce the laws, and even run the prisons.
Also Canada has a very special relationship with US LE. That's why Americans cant enter Canada with any criminal record (even a DUI from years ago will keep you out) How do they know? The US LE gives Canada full computer access to all US criminal records. Canada is unique in this access.
You can bet that Canada will help the US when it comes down to Sex Trafficking because the US has already tied it to terrorism. The US has a very long arm around the world when it comes to LE.Lastly, The feds can block computer traffic from any foreign server with ease. Anyone who doubts that is kidding theirself.
Someone posted the bill and it is directly aimed at promoting the act of prostitution via trafficking not sole sex workers. However as in every bill and statute it adheres to there are ways around it. I am surprised some of these site whos main revenue comes from this sort of advertising don't turn straight to their attorneys and find ways around this. One major advertiser, we all know who, has. But I have also heard, rumor only, that their counsel is the same who represented Larry Flint and we all know that was a full time job!
I took business law in college and did quite well in it. I had to go up against a city prosecutor for another matter not related to this industry and won. It wasn't easy, she was tough and as most of us know prosecutors are strictly out for wins as most go onto political office.
If I hadn't taken these courses I would've never known how to read the law, dicipher it and twist it into my favor. This is what attorneys do and each sucessful business has counsel on retainer so why is this happening? It should have been expected and a fail safe in place to protect their business in such a case.
So what really is going on here?
We can still see somethings but not all smh
... and I come back like wtf.
Is that a sexual service? Hmm, they may ban posts like this soon LoL
I wonder what would happen if some of these politicians were outed as hobbyist (just saying)? They are hypocrites!! To the conservatives, get your values out of the bedroom. To the liberals, doesn't a woman/man have control over their own bodies and a right to choose! American rights are being chipped away! Just watched the Demolition Man on TV the other day. We are becoming San Angeles!
Whoever outed them would "commit suicide" of "get in a card accident". Dont fuck with powerful people
Very true. These pricks didnt get to where they are in life by not fighting back.
It never seems to faze them. They just disappear and get replaced by a new hypocrite.
I'm going to offer the opinion that this law's bark will be worse than it's bite, and once we get over some rough patches at first, it will get back to business as usual.
Sadly, some people are going to be taken down to make a show of things, but such is life.
I agree with this. Only 2 people voted against this including rand Paul. We should get a list of all who voted for it and if any providers have them as clients they should out them and be backed and supported by our community because this can really impact the lives of a lot of women and their families.
Umm, who’s supporting those that out them? Seriously? Unless you’re ready to retire or want that 15mins of fame, why do this?
First you would of course be ridiculed for violating personal privacy boundaries and black listed.
Then you would be brought under the media microscope for everything in your past.
And likely putting yourself out there for your entire family to see. Where would this ever benefit someone?
I agree, the hypocrisy should be exposed. But I can’t see anyone here being suicidal.
Just relax, I think this will be overthrown in court. Until then, keep posting, it’s better than the 1 week ads as long as you don’t come off as BSC.
Unless a guy is ready to write a letter to the editor (i.e. publicly expose himself as an active participant in an illegal activity) and state he is upset with this bill because it hinders his access to his favorite touring escorts, he can’t expect a women to expose her entire life, end her career or worse.
It’s a fucked up situation. But asking others to put themselves in harms way is not an option.
Maybe P411 can adapt to fill the shoes TER can no longer fill? I’m hoping there is a solution and am grateful to see everyone coming together. Stay safe!!!
Be careful out there ladies. Let’s stick together.
Guys get pre-screened and reach out to any model you’d like meet.
This is all so crazy! Always good to be proactive. Does anyone know if Wix has US or off shore servers?

Last night both the /r/hookers and /r/escorts communities on reddit were shut down, and now this. The TER ad board was easily one of the best resources available for finding good providers.
This is a dark day for the internet.
No one buy VIP memberships or spend any kindve $$ on here until the ad boards are returned, get em where it hurts, their pocketbooks
... is TER still accepting ads. Have any of you ladies attempted to post an add since this happened ?
can't post anything. They have blocked us.
Well, without the ads anymore, if guys keep up the reviews and keep them current (and maybe not so explicit as TER wants) we can still find ladies by searching a city location. Just a thought......
Let’s not forget he cheated on his first wife and left her while she was very ill with another woman so who better to give the country moral advice. He is no different than John Edwards other than he is evidentially a “war hero” because he was captured during military combat. Give me a break!
Eventually all escort sites are going to be shut down!
This is a very scary time for all of us, only thing left to use now is twitter, follow your favorite providers and keep their contact information.

P411 is based in Canada and TER is administered from Amsterdam and the servers and corporate offices are in South Africa. How will this law be enforced in the international arena?
I believe Proton email is not secure unless both parties use it. For example; If I use Proton and the receiver has Gmail the encryption is not effective. Any comments would be appreciated.
I believe your assumption would be correct. But reccomendations to your guide, or their reccomendations to their clients to switch is an easy resolve to the issue. Do what YOU can to protect yourself.
