Be Cautious of Unfamiliar Faces

Hopefully, you are enjoying reading the May 2024 edition of XBIZ World magazine while you are attending the XBIZ Miami tradeshow. The topic of this article was specifically chosen to cater to all the creators and businesspeople who are taking part in the adult industry’s most popular summer tradeshow. Featured In The May 2024 Edition Of XBIZ World I attended my first tradeshow 20 years ago in 2004. In those 20 years, I have met thousands of people from all over the world who were doing business (or trying to do business) in the adult entertainment industry. Many of the people I met during this span are still around while others, their whereabouts are unknown. The simple fact is that tradeshows remain one of the best ways to meet new people and network with people who share similar business goals. Not everyone who attends tradeshows has the rest of the industry’s best interests at heart. Some people are primarily motivated by their own selfish goals. If you are a creator, safety comes first. Adult entertainers not only face the daily stigma associated with pornography to begin with, but they most also must be constantly on guard from everyone from consumers…

Mr. Silverstein is a lawyer based in Michigan. He founded his firm in 2006 and has been involved in representing the adult industry for over a decade. He focuses on all the unique issues facing the industry. Corey (we're on a first name basis after the interview) has been a vocal critic of states like Texas and Louisianna's adult verification laws for online pornography. We discuss the differences between existing state laws and proposed legislation in other states, including Missouri. Corey explains the differences between some of the current laws and proposals, his thoughts on what's really behind these laws, and why we they are nothing more than porn bans. Is there a better way to keep kids from accessing adult content online or is that even something we should be attempting? We went into this interview knowing that Corey was not a fan of the current laws and proposals, but we were a little surprised to learn that, unlike most critics, his top concern is not privacy. Corey Silverstein ended up being…

Attorney Corey Silverstein Outlines ‘Serious Civil Liberties Concerns’ Raised by HB 295

Be aware of civil liberties concerns raised by House Bill (HB) 295. Cyberspace (November 8, 2023) - Adult industry attorney Corey D. Silverstein, the driving force behind MyAdultAttorney.com and Adult.Law, recently spoke to clevescene.com about civil liberties concerns raised by Ohio’s House Bill (HB) 295. Read “Proposed Porn Age Verification Bill in Ohio Raises Serious Civil Liberties Concerns” via clevescene.com right here. Dubbed the “Innocence Act,” HB 295 would implement an age verification requirement in the state of Ohio similar to what has already been implemented in several other US states – however, with more aggressive penalties for non-compliance. In its current form, HB 295 states that companies and webmasters who don’t implement “reasonable” age verification methods could be subject to criminal charges – a third-degree felony. No other proposed and/or implemented age verification regulation in the US has such punitive criminal penalties. “HB 295 is another example of a dangerous trend where politicians are seemingly ignoring commonsense – and the Constitution – at the same time,” Silverstein said. Silverstein explained to clevescene that additional language in HB 295 creates a misdemeanor for anyone circumventing the age block from the side of the user (eg via VPN). According to Silverstein, this aspect of HB 295 will…
