Routing around censorship

Magazine: Whores and Other Hackers, how the war on Craigslist erotic services is endangering sex workers.

Aside from Blumenthal, there are two things right now that conspire to keep us in this position. First, a lack of mass political capacity as a workforce—but let’s not despair entirely. What workforce can claim mass political power these days anyway? The second obstacle is the media machine’s continued confusion about where technology and sex converge. Addressing the political fight is one for the long haul, and for multiple generations of sex workers and our allies. But this internet thing, I think we can fix.
