An interesting read I came across today. Basically explains what we've suspected all along, that the US government shut down of Backpage had nothing to do with trying to stop trafficking, and everything to do with politics.

Backpage was in fact actively helping to reduce stop trafficking. "Even without a subpoena, in exigent circumstances such as a child rescue situation, Backpage will provide the maximum information and assistance permitted under the law,"

You don't think that the government, or news, tells the truth do you? Listening to the news be it TV or radio, is like listening to a fairytale.

The government tells the truth for the most part, except maybe about the Roswell incident.

I would have to wonder if the shut down of Backpage was not due to trying to shutdown trafficking; but to protect the traffickers from going to jail. Instead the business owners will be if they lose the court battle. The article states that Backpage was helping police shutdown underage trafficking.
