Red Light Legal, which offers legal representation to anyone in the sex trades, is hosting an online know your rights workshop for creating arrest plans. Anti-sex work laws often hamper support groups working to provide safety resources (like safer sex supplies, housing and information on harm reduction) to vulnerable sex workers by equating any assistance with pimping, pandering or promoting trafficking; when sex work isn't a crime, these groups can provide assistance to sex workers without fear. Criminalizing and aggressively cracking down on all sex work pushes consensual sex workers underground and into unsafe environments, possibly creating newly trafficking victims and making sex work less safe. And yet in practice, the true targets of the war on trafficking have been the marginalized, low income consensual sex workers whose livelihoods and ability to stay safe have long been dependent on the resources being scrubbed from the internet in the name of ending trafficking. It seems worth asking why it is that Congress members are able to cross the aisle when it means passing legislation that suppresses free speech and reduces the safety of women and men who are just trying to earn a living — while a fact-based, proven solution for making sex work safer and effectively combatting trafficking is rejected by liberal feminists and conservative Christians alike. A wide range of groups including Amnesty International, Freedom Network USA, Global Alliance Against Traffic in Women, Human Rights Watch, UNAIDS, World Health Organization, International Women's Health Coalition and numerous sex worker advocacy and support groups have thrown their support behind the decriminalization of consensual sex work, recognizing that removing the possibility of arrest is the best way to make consenting sex workers safer and effectively fight trafficking. They've clarified that sex workers choose to trade companionship, entertainment, fetish play, and other services to fellow adults, while those who are victims of trafficking are forced into providing such services against their will. Upper crust clientele may peruse sex workers on websites that provide screening services for high-end "adult companionship." An average Joe, on the other hand, can find more economical options under the "escort" section on other sites. Understanding this reality is key to combating the human trafficking scourge in our country. Sex trafficking across America is a more clandestine activity, hidden within the commercial sex industry that has flourished in our country for decades, as well as in plain sight under the veneer of legitimate businesses. This development comes nearly a month after the House of Representatives passed the Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act or FOSTA at a vote of 388-25, making posting or hosting online prostitution ads a federal crime. As advertised by their sponsors, they're aggressive legislation that will help take down human traffickers who've been forcing vulnerable women and underage people into sex work against their will — a mission that most of us can get on board with. A related bill looking to cut off banking services to "human traffickers" has found similarly broad support, passing 408-2 in the House, with passage in the Senate looking extremely likely. It's likely that these laws will be challenged in court and eventually overturned: Advocates have argued that especially the original bill, which targets a broad array of sex-related speech defined as "trafficking," is more likely to curb free speech by encouraging online platforms to censor their users than it is to combat trafficking. For those for whom sex work was the only reasonable option, that meant turning to street-based sex work or employing the services of a potentially abusive pimp or agency, landing in the very situation the war on trafficking claimed to be protecting them from. In a statement sent to the Senate Commerce committee last November, they argued: "Online providers cannot and should not be subjected to criminal liability merely for facilitating the speech of others – even if elements of those communications are distasteful or even unlawful." The organization added that such liability will actually make it more difficult to expose criminal activity. Its authors and supporters have framed Section 230 as a loophole which allows websites to profit from forums which "knowingly assist, facilitate, or support sex trafficking." Without free Internet forums, sex workers of all kinds will lose access to resources that can help them to both survive and thrive. According to one "John," a former journalist and current media relations specialist, "I'm not paying for sex, I'm paying for a different experience and to walk away afterward." This "John" is one of many men who refer to themselves as "hobbyists" or "mongers" in online erotic review forums. The central distinction between consenting prostitution and sex trafficking is the use of force, fraud or coercion for the purpose of exploitation. Alex Empire, who is the moderator of a subreddit called Sexworkers, received a messaged from reddit administrator zippylooda warning her that "any post that could facilitate the connection of sex sellers and sex buyers would be a violation" of the update to reddit's content policy.
