In what can only be considered a victory for women's rights and the anti-trafficking movement, craigslist has decided to close their erotic services section. A new adult section will be opened and posts made to it wll be screened.
"It's clear to everyone that Craigslist's erotic services section was nothing more than an Internet brothel," Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan said. "I'm encouraged that Craigslist has agreed to change how they operate and monitor their site. The steps they're taking are the only effective way to prevent the exploitation of women and children."
