Read on Twitter
REALLY bad
Sites (like twitter or reddit) may decide to quickly dump all adult content rather than implement these technically difficult and extremely specific requirements for all sites that 'host pornography'
this is what the 'traffickinghub' narrative was designed to excuse https://twitter.com/MelodyKush/status/1340106469547585537

I hope @AOC and other currently-in-office pols are going to do more than just make tweets about people on having to do onlyfans as a second job - a LOT of people are about to lose their only advertising options on social media, because we can't purchase regular advertising.
worse, sites may just ban every sex worker currently on here, meaning people will lose community and a political voice. it's unlikely they'll implement a process to delete your old posts and keep your account easily. tumblr tried but it didn't help, they lost everyone anyway
this is exactly what I mentioned we need to be extra wary of now that the dems have won the preisdency. if Harris is the tiebreaker, even worse - this is a 'bipartisan' legistlation, a bipartisan win. but it's NOT about 'online exploitation' since it ONLY talks about PORN SITES
again, 99% of the content and the actual exploitation of kids happens on kid friendly platforms, which have already banned porn. further regulating porn won't help, because it's not even mostly on there - they JUST WANT TO STARVE/SQUEEZE PORN
i don't know what we can do about this, i'm feeling very pessimistic
it's gone entirely on script - get harris in the highest office, manufacture another backpage style public enemy, introduce bipartisan legislation, get another win towards making porn totally illegal.

I just have to note THIS DOESN'T EVEN HAVE TO DO WITH REGULATING PORN
they want to MAKE IT SO HARD TO MAKE OR HOST PORN THAT "NORMAL" SITES SIMPLY DUMP SEX WORK AND NEW BUSINESSES START NOT ALLOWING NUDITY ETC
it's about censorship. it's anti SEX. they're trying to draw a line

again, FOSTA/SESTA was only a failure if you care about violence in the sex trade. in terms of reducing visibility of sex work, it worked very well. encouraged censoring on some platforms and outright closure of others.
similarly, the target here is the internet as a whole

it's not about reducing abuse, where we know the best thing to do is offer resources so they can't be used to control people (housing, food, income)
it's about hiding sexuality - they don't go after private facebook groups for the same reasons they don't go after priests.
