New 2257 regulations

**NameSniper.com** · 06-08-2005, 09:32 AM

Hello Everyone,

As released "The new 2257 regulations will go into effect on June 23rd, 2005"

Anyone has any information regarding what changes will it require us to do ?

A quick google search pulled up two decent articles.

2257 might not mean much to you unless you already create porn for a living, but newly revised US Department of Justice rules regulating the ways adult content is distributed on the web...

Would you prefer to have the government crack down on you the minute the clock strikes 8 (AM) June 23rd? They might be in the mood to set an example, and put fear into the entire (adult) industry.

Perhaps you could try xxxlaw.net.

I believe the core of the new law is that there should be proof of all models depicted in images/videos etc that they are 18 and older. It used to be that only the producer of such content must keep track of proof of age; now it's the content provider as well.

As far as i know yes but now you should "proove" 18 y o requirement even if you are using third party content like promotion materials etc and its almost impossible.
