I'm excited to find out through the Love146 Blog that their Craigslist Campaign has worked!
From the Love146 Blog:
If you have been involved in Love146, you will remember our Campaign to end trafficking on Craigslist. It has been a long road, and so many of you have been involved. Out of our efforts a coalition was formed to combat human trafficking on the Internet (End Internet Trafficking Coalition: ). We received some good news today. Jim Buckmaster, CEO of Craigslist, has been working with Attorneys General throughout the country, law enforcement, and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC). Craigslist will be working together to fight predators, which includes verifying phone numbers, and charging the "erotic services" category. 100% of profits from this will be contributed to charity. An external accounting firm will be retained to track the details. Craigslist will not profit from this.
That is very good news!
ABC News reported about this momentous occasion here.
You can hear it from the horse's mouth (craigslist) here.
Great job Love146 and all those who helped out with this campaign.
