Just went to check back CL for an ad I saw today. The whole erotic services section is gone. It's not in the news. The last I read they were refusing to remove that section in canada and now they have. It isn't illegal like it is in the US. Why are they doing this?

Section is still there. Maybe they are having technical issues.
 
Oh the shit is bout 2 hit da fan , it's gone can't post an ad cuz there is no erotic section ...so I was gainfully employed til today now I'm not..even though I have other ads craigslist was my main squeeze, I'll be applying for welfare and launching a law suit against the Ontario government first thing monday
 
Not sure how the govt assholes accomplished this petty exploit. It's perfectly legal in Canada to publish escort ad site. There's no way that CL could have been prosecuted for doing this.

Maybe They removed it, because they dont want a headache anymore?? who knows.
 
There is only 1 reason they removed it and that was the Ontario Government bugging them. I can assure you I will not be silent on this issue, these bitches r gonna have 2 answer and face me.

Talk about violating my Charter of Rights. I m fuken pissed u dunno ...this is real BULL CRAP

This just cost me 5-8K a month yes fukkers thats how we do it now u know why i post so much, shit some months even more. Yes even an ole hoe like me can make that kinda paper.

I gots ads on eros but its not even comparable to craigslist 4 me...i really dont know about anybody else but thats my main income - im not on welfare but i feel like i ma have to be

why its fuking xmas

everywhere there is an obstacle

seriously the government wants to make me homeless again for real

1 pissed off hoe
 
There wasnt any court order or anything for CL to close Erotic services section right? What really just happened to CL?

If you have a specific link, its still there. If you already have a search, with results, you can still navigate back-and-forth, between listing and specific AD. If you refresh, or run search again - NADA.
 
Well, all the people who use Craigslist will have to look somewhere else. It's just a matter of figuring out where. The demand isn't going away. This could be a business opportunity for someone.

But I don't really understand why the Ontario Government cares what's on CL any more than it cares what's in Now or Eye.

CL was free and anyone can post an ad there but Now's escort section is not free.

Because the politicians don't know or care about SP ads in Now or Eye. They only discovered Craigslist thanks to media stories about CL being pressured to kill the erotic services section in the U.S.

And since Craigslist derived no revenue from the free ads placed there by SPs, there was no incentive to fight self-righteous right-wingers in the U.S., let alone Canada. Why does CL need that headache?

This is mere posturing. CL caved to the politicians and can claim to be a good upright American corporate citizen. All mom and apple pie. And the politicians can trumpet their righteous success.

If politicians do decide to pressure Now or Eye to eliminate SP ads, expect great resistance, possibly a court battle, from main stream media. Even though the Globe, Star and Post don't have the same cash flow from SP ads, they will definitely be concerned about fundamental issues of freedom of expression and will support any protest by Now or Eye or LisaOfToronto.

Unfortunately for Lisa, however, those big players won't be bringing out their shotguns for individual entrepreneurs. They'd be just as happy to see Craigslist shut down completely, and Kijiji too. All the free classifieds online are killing the bottom line for media operators that rely on paid ads.
 
this is wht shut down craigslist complaints from the newspapers that r not getting paid...possibly other paid escort sites and probalby lyla from hoeatta :arf:

my guess is the big boys with the big toys shut it down pressure from now/eye/sun etc who pay taxes on every 2 line ad which is like wht $200 a week (talk bout government pimpin lol)

craigslist u can just log on confirm a phone number and make a gnote tax free lol
well sorta not really

i write half of it off, taxi, panties, stockings, furs, condoms, ad cost, ROGERS BLEEDING ME DRY ($800 just 1 month internet usage laptop & cell phones) seriously its not cheap running a hoe biz, thats just me alone expenses

i wash my sheets like all the time ...laundry soap, new sheets r like a gnote a set i look for half price it still costs me $500 a bed sheet spread

seriously

who the fuck is government think they r messing with

i m accustomed to a certain life style, i m legally entitled to so wht is the problem why rock the boatÉ
(my keys r messed up thats a question mark)

r these politicians trying to make a name for themselvesÉ

is the pressure too much

craigslist can implement an age check just like many of the other sites, anything is possible but i dont think the cronies ask for dat they just pressure them to shut it rite down ...craigslist is a pussy

fuck dem den:666:
