Actually, Craigslist has signed an agreement with 40 state attorney generals to combat Prostitution. It appears that prositution via Craigslist has become a big deal.
People are now required to submit a valid phone number, and credit card to post to the erotic services area of Craigslist. Of course they will be charged. Gotta pay the bills somehow.
I wonder if Craigslist might be providing some of the user info to authorities too?
I'm surprised it's taken this long for some kind of measure like this to take place.
