Backpage and effects of its shutdown

分类广告信息网站backpage与其被关闭的影响

The CEO and co-founder of Backpage.com, Carl Ferrer, pleaded guilty inApril to charges of facilitating prostitution and moneylaundering after the Justice Department seized the controversialonline classifieds site.

Backpage的首席执行官以及联合创始人卡尔费勒在被司法部查封网站后于去年四月承认控罪 包括协助卖银，洗钱。

The website's other co-founders Michael Lacey and James Larkin,as well as five other executives, faced 93 charges involving facilitatingprostitution through the Backpage site and money laundering.

网站的其他创始人迈克尔来西和詹姆斯拉金以及其他五位公司执行官面临93项指控包括通过网站协助卖银以及洗钱

While some praised Backpage’s demise as a blow to anabusive industry, sex workers across the United States and Canada swarmedsocial media to air concerns rarely heard in political discourse: To them,Backpage’s demise meant the end of safeguards and a reliable revenue stream in a profession that’s not goinganywhere.

当部分赞扬backpage网站的死亡终摧毁了这一侮辱性行业，但美国与加拿大的性工作者则涌进社交网站上传达一个从未听说过的政治话语：对性工作者们来说，backpage网站的封禁意味着失去保护以及可靠的盈利渠道。



Backpage was responsive to the Maryland State Police corporal'srequests for records and his agency's warrants and subpoenas. When he asked thesite to remove advertisements he determined were trafficking-related,moderators complied – sometimes within minutes.

Backpage网站对他要求记录以及传唤反应十分迅速。当他向网站要求移除他十分确定是关于非法交易的广告时，管理员马上遵从，有时在数分钟内就有反馈

While anti-trafficking operations by Maryland State Policeyielded three more arrests in 2018 (when Backpage was seized) than the yearprior, the number of victims police came in contact with dropped 38 percent,from 113 in 2017 to 70 last year, the Salisbury Daily Times reported in February.

索尔兹伯里每日时报二月报道：马里兰州警察的反非法交易行动放弃了比去年多三项的指控猴（在backpage网站封禁后）警察联系到的受害者数量下降了38个百分点，从2017年的113人减少至去年的70人。

'There’s a place for them. They justdon’t know it yet'

其实还有地方收容他们，只是他们仍未知道



"Somebody is going to say to them – whether it’s at thejail or the ER or the judge – somebody is going to say: 'Well, you can go to athree-night shelter or you can go to jail or you can go to a detox for threeweeks. You can go back to your pimp, you can go to the streets or to yourabusive family or you can go to Sanctum House if you would like to change yourlife."

“总会有人告诉他们 – 无论是在监狱，急诊室或者法庭 – 总有人会告诉他们：你可以去避难所或者监狱又或者戒三周的毒瘾，你可以回去你的鸡头那里，可以回去站街或者回到你那变态家庭。 抑或者，你很想改变你的生活，那么你就去“圣殿””

1. Protecting Prostitution. Ginsburg had opined that severalfederal laws against prostitution “are subject to several constitutional andpolicy objections. Prostitution, as a consensual act between adults, isarguably within the zone of privacy protected by recent constitutionaldecisions.” In support of this proposition, Ginsburg cited only two casesinvolving contraception (Griswold and Eisenstadt) and one involving abortion(Roe). She further recommended that the federal laws against prostitution berepealed.

1.保护卖银。 金斯伯格（应是鲁斯·巴德·金斯伯格RuthBader Ginsburg）认为有数项反对卖银的联邦法律“与数项宪法以及政策相驳”卖银作为两个成年人一致同意的行为，对于是否属于宪法所保护的隐私范围内仍有争议
为支持这一主张，金斯伯格引用了两起关于避孕节育的案件（1965年格里斯沃尔德诉康涅狄格州案以及1972年艾森施塔特诉贝尔德案）以及一起关于堕胎的案件（1973罗伊诉韦德案） 她更进一步建议废除禁止卖银的联邦法律

“There is no official estimate of the total number of humantrafficking victims in the U.S. Polaris, a non-profit that operates the hotlineon human trafficking, estimates that the total number of victims nationallyreaches into the hundreds of thousands when estimates of both adults and minorsand sex trafficking and labor trafficking are aggregated.”
Well that may sound good, but when you consider that we are a nation of under400 million people, and allegedly “hundreds of thousands” of people aretrafficked (so a minimum of 200k), that would mean that no less than 1 out ofevery 2000 people in America is a victim of human trafficking. I realize thatthis is a real issue that deserves attention, but I don’t buy the math. Someoneis fudging the numbers to justify their argument.

“目前美国尚未有官方数据统计实际的非法人口交易受害者数量。Polaris，为非法人口交易提供举报热线的非盈利组织估算总计全美成年，未成年，非法性交易以及劳工贩运受害者达到数十万以上。”
好吧这听起来还不错，但你想一想我们是一个有4亿人口的国家，而据说有数十万人处于这种贩卖之中（那么最少也有二十万吧），那便意味着每2000人中便有一个人。我认为这是一个实际存在的问题而且值得所有人的关注，但我质疑这数字的真实性，有人篡改的数字以证明他们的观点。

I just don't get it. He's a billionaire. Why not jump on yourprivate jet and got to another country and nobody cares. Just make a"Pit" stop in Nevada and it's legal or just hire a call girl to cometo your hotel room.

我就是搞不懂，他可是个亿万富翁。为什么不开上他的私人飞机去一个没有任何人管的国家。或者中途在合法的内华达停一停然后叫个妹子去他的酒店房呢？
