From what I can tell they are well on their way to becoming a reality in the broke state of California, insuring that some more of its tax base goes south ... or more likely east.

The main question is what/where will the mostly gonzo companies shoot. Choices:

1) Start using condoms and do away with facials, creampies, swallowing and most other stuff that makes people buy porn. Then compete with the tons of condom free porn coming from Europe containing all the good stuff.

2) "Go underground" whatever that means: presumably shoot without permits in unidentifiable motel rooms, making sure not a single palm tree or California scenery is visible. Of course using the U.S.C. 2257 (which presumably the industry will still be above ground enough to file) CAL-OSHA should easily be able to prove when/where the stuff was shot and bust them.

3) Move elsewhere in the US like Nevada or Florida. Of course those will be full of their own legal problems, including copycat "condom ony" regs, should CAL-OSHA's drive out the industry from Cali.

4) Relocate production to Budapest/Prague elsewhere. Lets see: endless supply of drop dead gorgeous women working for less than their US counterparts and willing to do just about anything. No sex negative government waiting to shut down the business. Some companies, like Evil Angel, Anabolic, etc. shoot there already.

Clearly I think that option 4 is the only plausible one. If American porn chicks want "box covers"/internet notoriety to promote their stripping/escorting business, they will need to take plenty of working vacations to Eastern Europe.

Guerilla one man operations, website only, off shore servers, PWs filming in hotels or apartments while doing strip club/hooking tours.

"Hobbyist" takes the step up. A model release and payment by check means its legal and a tax deduction. Top flight whores will still command a decent rate. Your "hobbyist" producer will use them if by some chance his site looks like it will turn a profit, don't want to do that for the first 5 years. The fair to middlin ones will dream of the days of high paying gigs in the Dijon Dungeon. <<insert self inflicted headshot smiley here>>

I got about 7 other paragraphs of useless thoughts based on no facts what so ever, but don't want to bore everyone too much. I hit the highlights and got a shot at Brandon. I'm off to the next thread.

Option 4 just made Brandon's week.

Useless thoughts.....I agree. And, yes, you've bored everyone plenty.

5. Watch the countless hours of porn without condoms that already exists.

I can only speak for myself, but in 2009 alone I downloaded enough porn to last 4-5 years if played back to back continuously. And, I barely scratched the surface of what exists out there.

Eh, I'll be easing up Brandon.

I'll say a prayer to St. Jude for you, next time I'm at mass. "St. Jude, please do what you can to help Brandon get back into the USA. Soup Kithcen Sluts all over southern California now have no way to support there Meth habits once, the child support checks run out. Brandon did a public service hiring these un attractive women, when no one else would. St. Jude, there are many dentists and bus companies that are being hurt with Brandon is exile. I hope you can find it in your heart to help turn the tide in the little guy's favor. Amen."

More useless thoughts. You continue to bore everyone plenty. Stop. Please stop.

You ought to be a consultant for Google. You've got their spider beat hands down.

No jokes or man boobs, I must have gotten to you. Mission accomplished, I'll stop.

As long as there are cameras,meth addles girls with daddyissues and the boyfriends of said girls, fucking will be filmed for money. I'm sure it'll be a combination of all of the above. Some will be above ground, some will be under.

hasnt this been a threat since 04 or so?just another case of the sky falling.

With CGI you don't need real people anymore, its just cheaper and easier to shoot real people fucking.

From all available info it is mighty close to reality at this point. It is way beyond the "threat" stage.

But in any event it depends on your point of view -- if you make porn in Budapest, probably you are putting the Dom Perignon on ice right about now.

Why do I care where they make the porn?

this could slow down porn production if it comes through i guess.

No exchange of fluids seems to be the thing here. Imagine a tittie fuck where the broad don't get squirted in the mug. Imagine a tittie fuck w/ a rubber on???!!?!?!

wait now theyve gone too far!tittie fucking with a condom?what fluids are being exchanged if they use baby oil or lube?and as long as it ends up on her tits the facials a non issue.

Pre cum? Slobber?

It's the old "First they come for Panzer, and I did nothing" thing. First they came for the "extreme" producers. Now they are no exchange of fluids. If that goes through, and the business is still getting by, they'll go with a no penetration thing.

It is like towns w/ strip clubs that say no dancer within 6 feet of a customer. They can't put a bullet in the business, so they baseball bat its knees, then say "Run a marathon with us in court."

This poster does not speak for all of us!!!

The business is sketchy at best. Full of sketchy people. There are loopholes in every law. The sky may be falling, but it's not the end of the world.

I am of the opinion that if something feels like a violation of your basic freedoms, it probably is. And this feels like that. I'd be willing to bet this won't stand up if it is challenged legally. The question is, who's going to go at it with these jokers?
