The article clearly says they're targeting Kerb crawling, which to be fair is a practice that should be gotten rid of. It's also not a safe way for the girls to operate. Anything that targets exploitation or trafficking is a good thing. Independent escorts will be much harder to target and is not illegal.

I think we're safe for now.

Very true

The Garda have been using entrapment for ages for kerb crawling. A man posted here a while ago to say he had just been arrested for approaching a female officer in Capel St. Ooooops.

Still, it is interesting as it proves, illegality aside, some people will pay for sex no matter what the risk.
