Lurk, if this were actually a way to regulate porn it would probably have been written that way. Unfortunately this is a campaign by Weinfuck to run the whole industry out of CA, pure and simple. With this in mind he wrote every catch he could into the proposed law to ensure it would do its job in running porn out of the state. I hope the voters of CA are smart enough to see this for what it is if he manages to get it onto the ballot, he has to collect a certain number of signatures to do so, I think he needs about 400K registered voters to sign the petition, he can do that in Los Angeles County alone — population nine million of which about five to six million are likely registered voters — where the voters have passed similar legislation so I think this getting on the ballot is a foregone conclusion, it is a matter of whether the registered voters of San Francisco, Marin, Alameda, Santa Clara and Contra Costa counties (the other highly populated area of the state) will go for it as well. I suspect they won’t if they are informed voters, especially in the case of San Francisco and Marin as they are very liberal and don’t in general support government interfering with sexual matters. I also suspect the rural area voters won’t go along with it but there aren’t very many voters in places such as Calaveras and Alpine counties to affect a statewide proposal.

Actually these posts seem fully credible. I’ve met smart girls in the industry going twenty years back, economic pressures bring them there. Not all of them escort either.. a lot do but, agents also push them there. Honestly, the industry isn’t really that far from sex trafficking these days. Whatever happened to the Fox girl that tried to shut down Derek Hay? Isn’t she in Europe and looking fifteen years older?

No matter how many times I hear someone say that the performers are for condoms but are too afraid to speak out because they won’t get work? Well, maybe that was true at one time but I don’t think it’s true with this new crop of performers.. Who, let’s not forget, all escort and I doubt they use condoms every time because they really care….lol!

Yeah, it makes so much sense that the performers care and want to use condoms but because they are too afraid to speak out they continue to shoot condom less porn … Therefore, Continue to catch STDS.. Continue to risk contracting HIV every time they shoot a scene ..continue to be taken advantage of..etc..etc…. And they do this all because they REALLY do care about themselves and others… Lol!

It’s obvious MOST performers DON’T give a shit one way or another or are to DUMB to give a shit one way or another..I mean porn doesn’t exactly attract the intellects of society….

Oh, and the current performers who speak out against condoms are just playing a part to get PR/attention for themselves…. In hopes of advancing their “career” and make more money and /or are just FSC puppets…These performers really DON’T care one way or another..they are just saying what they are told to.

and the SMALL percentage of current performers who MIGHT actually be in favor of condoms but speak out anonymously on these message boards?? .You lack credibility…. You come across as cowards otherwise you would identify yourself…

Sorry, but no one, especially from the public, is going to take seriously an industry person who posts anonymously… That speaks volumes to us..

Just like the producers/directors and talent who comment anonymously on these message boards who are against condoms ..you tell us in the public… That you are saying is BULLSHIT and..or … You KNOW you are breaking the law and don’t want to be identified… You are cowards or you would not be posting anonymously ..

Oh, And some of ya also just want to anonymously harass anyone who doesn’t agree with your views……

Lol! Y’all lack credibility.. TRUTH!

Forgot to add privately held share corps in mind with organizational structuring…does every shareholder need a license?

Maybe some one can explain why they didn’t set licensing up more like Corporate Franchising …the ENTITY is the Licensee responsible regardless of the tangled webs that entity uses to make it so. If agreement calls for fresh plants between 10 and 22 inches …it doesn’t matter who waters and trims them or didn’t …a violation can become a notice to cure or default.

The Free Speech angle on licensing, married couples and organizational structuring seem like fascinating facets when taken in context with …

6270.2 Adult Film producers: License
(b) A License shall be effective immediately upon the Division’s receipt of the application and fee, and it’s effect SHALL BE RETROACTIVE BY 10 DAYS OR THE DAY BEGINNING OF FILMING, WHICHEVER IS EARLIER. (Emphasis by caps mine throughout unless otherwise noted)

Section 6720.1 Notice & Disclosure.
(a) Within 10 days AFTER the beginning of filming, an adult film producer must disclose to the Division, in writing, signed under penalty of perjury by the adult film producer, the following information:

..filming address(es) and date…THE FILMING TOOK, IS TAKING, OR WILL TAKE PLACE. ….and WITHIN 72 HOURS OF SUCH CHANGES;

Doing my thing this language seems inconsistent with…
6270.1 (6) (a) condoms WILL be used…
6270.2 (e) A License shall be valid for two (2) years, unless suspended by the Division. Following the last day of the suspension period, the Division shall inform the suspended licensee of License reinstatement.

And gets muddier with…

6270.2 (d) For any adult film producer who is not an individual, no License shall be valid unless all owners and managing agents of such person obtain a License.

Cuz I’m not a lawyer this is for shoots n giggles but IMO this will be one of those both sides Lawyer Job Security things. If my paycheck were on the line I’d be asking my attorney some serious questions…

How is custodian of records in 6270(g) defined? How long and which specific records is this custodian required to maintain?

6720.2 (d) is raising the hairs on the back of my neck with itchy questions…

Starting with ALL OWNERS and moving onto AND MANAGING AGENTS

Does it require both spouses to be licensed in the case of legally married couples? Does it prohibit couples from releasing content filmed with the intent of private use if they don’t meet the 10 day deal?

Is the ENTITY (marriage or structured organization) License invalidated or suspended if one of the OWNERS or MANAGING AGENTS License is suspended?

Seems like it would make more sense to make an ENTITY license dependent on OWNER (stakeholder) licensing and accountable for any hired or contracted MANAGING AGENTS.

In the case of hired or contracted Licensed MANAGING AGENTS their license isn’t jeopardized if the OWNERS (stakeholders) drop the ball or skirt the process.

IG MikeSouth is a sole proprietor OWNER (pretend he is filming in California) he crosses his t’s and dots the i’s for his License to film talent he’s worked with before…he mentions it at dinner and JOE SCHMOE producer who has a valid ENTITY license says…I’ll pay you to film some content for me…becoming a MANAGING AGENT for a licensed owner who didn’t cross their t’s and dot their i’s and gets his ENTITY License suspended…..

Yeah …the lawyers got what I was trying to say long ago…for the rest of you this ramble confused…ask a pro 😉

PS…6720.2(d) clarifies folks stating preferences of going underground or international.
