#1 Post at 4-5-2010 20:16  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Craigslist ditches erotic adverts Is this the end of the world as we know it? http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/8049101.stm Craigslist ditches erotic adverts Craigslist recently toppled MySpace as the most visited site. The US classified ads website Craigslist says it will remove its erotic services category following claims it promotes prostitution. Law enforcement officials have said prostitutes and clients use the site for illegal sexual encounters. In place will be a new adult services section that will be closely monitored...

#3 Post at 4-5-2010 22:52  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Reply #1 JckJr's post That article is from 14 April. I don't know if they still haven't implemented the proposed changes, but there appears to be no shortage of professionals advertising their services at the moment. Does't seem to matter what city you take a look at, all I have seen still have an erotic services section available.

#4 Post at 5-5-2010 00:36  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L if you actually go to craigslist, they changed "erotic" category to "adult", and when you browse through the "adult" section, most of the listings are not the same as before. There is a significant change in the listings, much less individual listings and a whole lot more of the repetitive postings of the same providers for "massage". I'm guessing craiglist implemented what they said they were going to do.

#7 Post at 5-5-2010 05:54  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L It seems in Canada, they have not made the changes yet but however I did noticed that certain ads listing are being removed quicker then usual so someone might be actually monitoring them now. If this change goes into affect, my wallet is going to get lighter alot faster

#10 Post at 5-5-2010 09:20  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L I read that they doubled the cost of posting ads in the "adult" section and their revenues went way up because people just paid the extra amount.  Where isthe freedom of speech?!?!?

#11 Post at 5-5-2010 11:10  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L When I was in the States last year I saw on the news the usual vigilante, ultra-religous groups were targetting Craigslist as the tool of the devil - you know the story . I would imagine that this is just PR but will boil down to no change at all - the Craiglist people had to come up with a reply to all the public/media pressure. I got the impression from my research that (within the States, which is where all this is coming from) Craiglist was pretty much ruined with fake ads and police sting operations anyway. It's all just moved over to a couple of other sites - myredbook and backpage. Outside of the States, I don't think much will change.
