Assignment:

In 2009, a groundswell of activists and the attorney general organized to pressure craigslist to remove its "adult services" section on the ground that the website was used to traffic women and youth for sexual exploitation. After multiple campaigns, petitions to end the site, and threatening letters from multiple other state attorneys, the Craigslist CEO decided to shut down the adult service section on craigslist.com. (Which at that time was bringing $36 million a year). If you were the Craigslist CEO, what would you have done differently? Would you have shut down the website? Why or why not?

While developing your answers, consider the following factors: freedom of speech, moral policing of sexuality, endangerment of sex workers by driving them underground, reducing their ability to work independently, and increasing their vulnerability to human trafficking. Explain and support your position using reliable sources.
