Could Sexcriminals.com fall foul of COPA?

Hi Steve,

I've not looked at this in detail but I know that one of the prinicipal objections to this law was that a number of sexually explicit but not pornographic sites (and often non-commercial) e.g. sex discussion forums and blogs, sex education sites could fall foul.

Did you ever have concerns that Sexcriminals would be at-risk?

See an abbreviation or acronym, but don't know what it stands for? Consult the Glossary.

Not surprisingly this is getting widespread coverage.  In case you want to read several different takes on it and because articles sometimes are archived or moved, I'm listing some other articles on the Supreme Court decision.
