Just heard that BP is still up and running, checked and found that to be true.

... that if explicit stuff is not posted, just phone numbers and pictures, on a women-seeking men forum, what can the law do?

They're just hanging in to the absolute final hour, I suppose.  
Without that, is BP useful in any other way?  
I never trusted it anyway.... B&S was an almost certainty, and the risk factor huge.

I haven't seen them for a while, but I understand that it's about as sexy as a duty roster at a boy scout camp.

No text in subject line only phone number no text or links to email either, no rates, about as vanilla as can be.

What they did is really fucking smart. Phone number and picture only, with that they may just survive this. I think TER and cityvibe could learn a thing or two from them

Not " too cool", but my attempt at BP was just one let down after another. B&S, misleading service outlines, and the ever present chance at stepping into a big steamy pile of trouble....just render it unviable for me to consider as an option. The B&S was the worst. It was everytime.  
Think of how nice the picture of say a "Whopper" looks on the menu board. It makes your mouth water and your stomach grumble in hunger. Then you take it out of the bag... and it looks like it was dropped and stepped On! There were other issues I had with that avenue of procurement,  which I'm not going to detail here.

I travel a lot and in certain areas TER is very weak and BP offers a better alternative. The key is to use google image or tineye and also googling the phone # will show any TER reviews. Never assume if an ad says “check my TER reviews” that the advertiser has reviews and if she does many of the reviews are  bad.

Just guessing, but maybe BP's plan is -- see you in court!  They keep doing business as usual, let them sue or raid BP under SESTA, then take the case to the Supreme Court and win.  There is still a good chance the courts will strike this law down under the first amendment.  BP has nothing to lose by betting it all.  

Bp is putting all the chips in lol

Nothing to lose except maybe 25 years in the pen for their corporate officers.

that a site like BP may end up being the hero of the SW industry.

Plus that, is it worth it to them if they do?  Lastly, what are the chances this law gets shot down as a violation the 1st Amendment?  IMO, it's a big gamble if they do.   If they lose in the lower courts, I don't see them pressing on...too costly, and SCOTUS would be unlikely to reverse lower court rulings.   Also, like CL, hobby related activity is not BP's primary activity or source of revenue.  I do think think they might push it further than most other websites, though, given their parent company's reputation as a leading voice for the elements of society that most others do not like.  We'll see.

At least for now.

I had a post pulled by TER, reason, both sites mentioned are now banned.
