> Donald Trump is expected to sign the law this week, but sex workers across the country told the Guardian they were already suffering consequences. Craigslist shut down its personals section, and federal authorities seized Backpage.com, releasing an indictment this week accusing its founders of money laundering and “facilitating prostitution”. The list of charges did not include trafficking. And just a reminder this law was 100% unnecessary to prosecute Backpage. This was purely puritanical bullshit designed to hurt sex workers in the US that are here legally. They just needed a "cause" to sell to rubes.
