How long before cloud and hosting providers kick sites like OnlyFans off for fear of legal liability? Especially if things like SESTA become law, they'll lose whatever common-carrier protections they may have.
So what happens if a law like FOSTA-SESTA comes along and threatens legal penalties for cloud providers like AWS who knowingly host porn? Wouldn't that change "the bare minimum legal requirements"? And then later, the US, Canada, EU, and other countries sign a treaty to regularize "sex trafficking" laws and Canadian payment processors drop OF and similar?
Yes, of course some of them will go further offshore, into the fringes of the internet, to find hosting, but it will still hurt them, just like the way torrent sites have been hurt by similar moves? https://torrentfreak.com/googles-new-downranking-hits-pirate...
