The adult-services site Eros is still live for now, but federal agents seized servers, documents, and computers containing sensitive info on thousands of Americans in last Wednesday's raid of its North Carolina headquarters. And the feds won't say why.
"That is going to expose a whole bunch of innocent people," Maxine Doogan, president of the Erotic Service Providers Legal, Education, and Research Project told Raleigh-Durham's ABC 11 . "There's a big question about how the government will honor people's privacy. People have the right to their privacy and they should not be convicted or set up for moral judgment for adult activity."
Eros.com is billed as an "escort and adult entertainment directory." It's affiliated with a company called Bolma Star Services, run by Greg Huling, which operates out of Youngsville, North Carolina. But its reach is much, much broader: more than 100 area-specific sites worldwide.
Agents of Homeland Security Investigations spent hours at the place on November 8, loading lots of boxes into their trucks, according to local news reports. The U.S. Attorney's Office said the raid was part of an "active investigation," but no charges have been filed nor arrests made.
Whatever is happening, the case remains sealed for now. And the fate of the popular ad-platform remains unclear.
When the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the FBI took down adult ad platforms such as Rentboy.com, The Review Board, and MyRedbook, their web presence was simultaneously shuttered. So it's possible the Eros raid is related to a specific criminal case involving one or more users, not an attempt on the site itself.
If so, however, the volume of stuff taken from the Eros operations center is troubling. Surely the government could have merely demanded account information for those under investigation. The size of this seizure suggests more than an interest in a few Eros users. That, or a stunning overreach.
A third possibility is that the owners and companies behind Eros (and there is a confusing web of them) are under investigation for financial reasons.
In any event, the DHS now may have access to millions of people's "images, financial information, sexual preferences, gender identity and more," the Sex Workers Outreach Project notes in a statement . "[W]hat does Department of Homeland Security want with all of this information?"
"With sites like Eros.com and rentboy.com being added to the government shut down list we [lose] the opportunity to safely and properly lay out service boundaries, expectations, and guidelines for our interactions," the group continued. "Another site down directly puts more people in danger. Department of Homeland Security is creating an environment where perpetrators of violence can run a muck and go on to their next victim undetected."
Eros is one the few adult ad sites that takes extra measures (like checking real IDs) to ensure underage people aren't advertising or being advertised there—steps that now makes Eros users more vulnerable to government meddling and menace.
"Over the past few years, Eros has required progressively more revealing ID checks in order to confirm advertises are of age," writes Caty Simon at the sex work blog Tits and Sass . "Now those IDs, including those of migrant and undocumented sex workers, are in the hands of the Department of Homeland Security."
"No arrests have been made yet, or charges filed," notes Simon.* "But collectively, we sex workers shudder with that familiar fear: we're witnessing yet another instance of an ominous multi-year pattern, from Craigslist to MyRedBook to Rentboy to Backpage, of our advertising platforms being raided or pressured out of existence."
More panic-inspiring in the immediate term for many sex workers, though, is the loss of another advertising venue that made their lives safer and their work more profitable.
"As many Eros workers pointed out on social media, they're more worried about being homeless than about the government having [their personal] information," writes Simon. "The rest of us look on with empathy, knowing that any day, we could be next. We all try not to think about how tenuous and transitory our ways of doing business are so that we can go through our days without feeling the paralyzing economic terror hitting many of us now. But when something like this happens, it's difficult to avoid that hard fact."

There are states where prostitution is legal. There are many other states that turn a blind eye. In some ways, sites like this do help perform a service. Many serial killers and rapists often start off preying on prostitutes. Then there are prostitutes that prey on their clients. It can be very hard for one party of the "transaction" to report the other. Sites like this can help.
They are not illegal because they are not outright saying “we’re gonna fuck”. If you notice it is always “how many roses” and “dinner first”. Under these guises it is not illegal. What two consenting adults do after meeting from the website is their business.

I HAD A EROS ACCOUNT SINCE 2013 AND TODAY THEY EMAILED ME THIS:
Hello Mary, I hope this email finds you well. We want to inform you that it has come to our attention that your account associated to another account which has been closed in the past for policy violation, therefore this account will also be closed. When the decision to close an account is made, it is a permanent one. We wish you well with any future endeavors. Regards, Eli Customer Service Representative
WTF is what I said?! I have never had any issues, nor any payment issues with EROS since 2013. I have used my account religiously and made a ton using EROS as I have gained a lot of regular clients. When I called EROS.. first, they were completely rude. The bitch who answered, Julia, was a complete rude bitch. She told me my account was linked to closed accounts and nothing they can do about it and that I CAN NOT EVER POST WITH EROS AGAIN! They refused to refund me the money I just put up on my ad too. $350 UGH
I am dumbfounded on why? I have never changed anything about my EROS account. Never. When I started in 2013 I got so busy that I needed assistance so I did have a company I use to answer my calls but its been the same co. for 4 years. Nothing has changed on my end except 2 things: my photos, and my tour schedule obviously needs to change. That is it.
Eros failed to tell me anything on what I was linked to and I believe this is a RANDOM excuse they are using to scam girls and take their money or just getting rid of girls from the site. No one I know is linked to a closed account or banned from EROS. But I just heard from another GF that EROS is doing this to random girls. WHY?
They suck. I believe EROS is a scam and they're running on some sort of weird reasons on why they are shutting and banning girls from their site. NOthing I have done since 2013 has changed drastically. NOTHING.
