Most people, including myself, felt joining the FSC would protect them from inspections until the lawsuit was settled. Since I don't do hardcore, I didn't pay as much attention to the specifics of the injunction and what was covered. I dealt with 2257 when it first came out so am intimately familiar with it in its original form.

It has always bothered me that so many sites ignore 18 USC 2257, particularly amateur sites, due to the confidentiality factor -- they don't want to list their name or home address and that's why I only produce r-rated movies. But SO many sites are ignoring this law and then when the shit hits the fan, they'll be the first to complain.

Anyone who this affected should have consulted with an attorney to determine if they were exempt by joining the FSC, and from what.

But, this industry unfortunately quite often relies upon keyboard attorneys for their legal advice. Hey, if you read it on GFY it must be true, right?
