  • While I obviously do think such platforms should take measures to curb abuse like this, I am also wary of penalizing them for a phenomenon they don’t cause and can’t really control. The sad fact is that sex traffickers are always going to take advantage of platforms like this, no matter how well-meaning said platforms are, and holding them accountable for preventing it risks making said ventures impossible as business ventures. There needs to be a reasonable standard for what we expect from these companies in terms of safeguards against this kind of abuse.







  • Honestly, I think it’s high time we ditch old marriage laws in favor of much more individualized marriage contracts that are settled in civil court if they’re dissolved. Modern marriages are much more complex than traditional ones and our antiquated laws don’t deal with them well. We’d have to update laws/policies about hospital visiting, medical decisions, inheritance, etc, as well, but I think it would be worth it.
