If this law passes all (((they))) have to do to shut down ANY site is to False Flag sex trafficking and the Feds will move on the site's owners; namely our beloved @puttitout. This must be stopped at all costs!

Removes the protection: to websites that facilitate traffickers in advertising the sale of unlawful sex acts with sex trafficking victims.
Maybe I don't see it, above is the actual text, I read it. You can as well. It is targeted at SEX TRAFFICKING sites. Craigslist, Twitter and Facebook has more of an issue with this than Voat should. Are there Cam Whores on Voat trying to get people to buy their shit?
I do see the connection and domino effect but I am also not stupid. This will pass. It's a matter of time. How about we get the degenerates out of Voat and there's no more worry.
Sex Trafficking is for degenerates and losers. I hope the people behind that shit all die by impalement on rusty rebar.

The /v/DeepFake & /v/facesets sexual degenerates could easily false flag us into CP allegations & the rest would tumble down from there.
CP is directly linked to human trafficking & usually is what law enforcement looks for to get warrants & investigate deeper. It would probably not lead to much unless investigators are compromised but it sure would lead to a load of bullshit for Puttsy to shovel by himself, which I'm sure would please the anti-Voat crowd, rEdditards & powerful folks alike.

The bill does not even solve the problem, because those willing to engage in sex trafficing will find alternatives, and it will be harder for law enforcement to monitor. Look at how Facebook is used by law enforcement now. Sites that allow freedom of the press make it easier to lul those criminals into a false sense of security and thus catch them. Shut down alternatives like backpage.com, and it makes law enforcement harder.
