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.

That's a Senate bill. The one we're talking about is before the House and is just as dangerous as quoted.

You linked to the same thing, just not the Government publication H.R. 1865, then there is a submenu of items. Summary, text, actions and related bills. https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/1865/related-bills
This is why I feel it is important to link to the publication directly.
