    Default First MyRedBook, Now Rent Boy

    Just came across this news item about Rent Boy charging the owner and employees with prostitution. The DHS was involved in this one. Doesn't bode well for the future.

    Great. Now the feds have *everyones* cc info. So much for advertising on Eros. Wish that they'd just go after the real bad guys: pimps.

    Usually when they bust women the government uses the pretense of 'sex trafficking'. With this one they haven't even pretended yet that they are trying to save any victims, I suppose with gay men they don't even need to make excuses. Follow the money: the feds seized about $1.4 million dollars that it split between the three cooperating government agencies.

    It always goes back to the same question for me, the government believes sex workers don't have agency and that governments know best about what people should do with their own bodies. It tells me just how marginalized sex workers are that nobody stands up for them when the government is putting it's boot on the neck of innocent people just trying to earn a living.
