A better question. Is there any website blocked in Ireland?

Sites with pedophilia contents are but the pervs seem to have found away around it

What are E.I. doing handing out receipts?!

If those site can be blocked, this one can be as well.

Thats my point, they won't have to, you are technically in a brothel if there is just one other girl working somewhere in the same hotel, and there is nearly always a few working girls in the main Cork hotels.

All hotels are technically brothels now.

Sounds like something Fáilte Ireland could work with.

Yes true but then those sites are illegal all over the world , the difference is we are all in the EU and under EU regulations, it might be harder for the Irish Government to block this site

Brothel thing is not something new.

I don't think there was ever an arrest because two escorts worked in the same hotel, different rooms, but two working in the same apartment.

If under the law this site can be treated as pedo one ... could be blocked, no?

[blue rebel]

A judge would go for more ...class ... or maybe not..

Well with the money they earn they could well afford it.

If it is specifically not illegal to sell sex, why would the state block a website selling sex?

[willie wacker]

I'm not too sure of the specifics myself but I don't think it matters where the site is hosted, could be Timbuktu where anything goes for all it's worth, what's important is where it's being accessed from.

Now that it is illegal to buy sex ("time & companionship" for all the folks in denial) the next logical step is to hit the place where sex is for sale.

Say your ISP is Eir or whoever, the government could order them and others to block this website from being accessed.

Pretty much the same way governments in China and Iran etc block access to Western websites.

Obviously there are ways around it, proxies, VPN etc, I don't know as much as I should about how they work.

I'm guessing that why EI left Ireland in the first place, but I don't think that will make any difference if there is an ISP block enforced.

You know what Frances is like when she gets a notion in her head.

Sound
I doubt Frances will be in the same job much longer
We all gave out about Shatter and he said this law was unworkable
