But Sex Trafficking is defined so broadly that that probably is unconstitutional. But I would not want to be someone who gets hit with it. I am totally then opposed to FOSTA SESTA.
^^^ Because of Fosta Sesta, the operators of Portland's Xotispot bailed out, they got scared. That was a huge loss. and there was no trafficking there. It was just like a facebook for strippers, and where the club's pages could show the roster and be linked to the girls' profiles.
No, what constitutes trafficking is defined way too broadly, not defined at all. Same for the Traficking and Violence Against Women act from the Dubya Bush era.
No it is not. Read in a book about this, a stock broker spends 1/2 his time in the US, doing his trading. Then the other half cashed out and resting in India. Is he a trafficking victim? And if he talks with people on an online forum about all this, is the forum operator a criminal?
No, the Trafficking laws are only applied when there is somehow sex. The Mann Act criminalized anyone who transports a woman, not their wife, "for immoral purpose". The Trafficking laws and the online version, Fosta, is the same thing.
Show me a case where the Trafficking and violence against women act is being enforced which is not sexual.
And the basic form of trafficking, according to that law, does not have to involve m*n*rs, force, fraud, or coercion. And there are no specified lines you have to cross. It carries a 10 year penalty, and sex workers will be encouraged to claim it to get their T and U Visas. They only have to claim moderate distress, not anything extreme.
The Mann Act was used completely recklessly, trying to regulate adult consensual sexual behavior, used against Charlie Chaplin. Started with totally unsubstantiated rumors of "White Slavery", mostly just driven by anti-Chinese prejudice.

Really abusing people is already unlawful. It is a redundant bully law.

You can look the act up and read it
Sex trafficking means whatever they want it to mean, like driving a stripper GF to work, or using online to tell her about a new club.

Prostitution is amazing and I want it to be more widespread 😋😋😋😋
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mann_Act
The last person they tried to prosecute under it was Charlie Chaplin.
They are just making sex and sexual liaisons unlawful.
Now with the "Trafficking" concept, no state lines or national borders need to be crossed.
And with Fosta, the entire crime can be in cyberspace.
They can bust whom ever they want anytime.

And then I gave the example of the bi-national stock broker. People only get exercised about it when it is sexual.
It is really the same thing as the Mann Act, trying to legislate sexual morality.
SJG
And the Mann Act amounted to the same thing. Fortunately now thrown into the trash bin of our history.

4 part series, and she had to claim nearly nothing.

But it, like Fosta was always a bum deal, stupid law, just bullying.
Saying that adult women cannot consent to sex work.
Then anyone who has contact with them could be charged.
SJG
But FOSTA SESTA is just stupid law, giving LE great power when no crime has been defined.
T-RUMP was spreading ass for the Right of his own party.
