Ebay Eliminates Adult Only Categories, Issues Blanket Ban on Sexual Content

Where oh where will college girls sell their soiled underwear?

Bummer, I'd rather buy my sex toys from Ebay than Amazon.

Bezos isn't getting any of MY money!

What's this really about? I would think eBay would have made lots of money on those sales.

Glad I got rid of my porn DVDs on eBay several years ago.

Ebay Canada hasn't permitted adult items in over a decade.

This puritan bullshit is wild, I guess companies who refused to follow the far right are more than happy to follow the far left.

It is primarily because of the same bullshit change in federal law that convinced Craig's List to drop Personal ads. The platform owners used to be exempt from legal liability stemming from content placed on the platform by 3rd parties. Prudish SJW's who live to lay blame rioted a few years ago demanding that federal law change. Congress people are never bold leaders on sexual matters. The exemption was taken away as it pertained to sexual matters.

The stated goal was to make platform owners liable for sex trafficking that occurred related to content on their platforms. But vigorous attorneys will seize anything as the basis for their arguments. Rather than be exposed to on-going risk of liability, platforms are retreating. There are few reasons for eBay to give up sales. This would be a big one.

Thank you, r7, that makes sense.

This philosophy ruined tumblr and is a real torpedo to producers of original erotic content through popular social media now as well. Sure there can be an exodus to the tenement of ebid, but but it's a pale, weak little sister of a platform as well known as ebay. I 'm sorry to see American sexual expression relegated to obscure ghettos of the interwebs. I think it's a victory for shame merchants and a promise for patrons of pornography that their experience will probably be toll booths fraught with discouraging landmines of computer viruses. Oh, well. It was grand to be in a land that that's free.

^If this is what it took for you to see that many freedoms in America have been compromised, then I think the the porn has corrupted your brain, O patron.

The world is going backwards. WTF.

The US is filled with prudes taking it up the butt on the DL

Where will the used sneakers go and the cum crusted undies?

Looks like naughtybids will be back up to speed soon.
