Adult websites, litigation and the use of offshore business structures
With just about everything being subject to litigation these days, you might want to start protecting yourself by moving your adult business website offshore. Every business that involves a human vice, makes a lot of money and is patronized by a never diminishing clientele base is always bound to attract some legal trouble and if you lack the deep pockets to match, well it just might turn out to be the end of the road for you and your business. If you doubt the veracity of this statement you might want to take a look at the legal cases involving tobacco companies, gambling businesses and other related industries that involve people profiting from a human vice.
There are so many local and national laws that govern anything that is related to a vice in one form or another. There are certain countries where the overt advertisement of cigarettes or cigarette related products is a crime, there are other countries where it is prohibited to gamble and other countries were the sale of alcohol is subject to legal conditions or prohibition. Companies who wish to sell their products in such jurisdictions often have to tow a fine line between law and lawsuit or move their business offshore.
Adult websites provide an offering that can be sold to a worldwide audience without maintaining a global physical presence. This is an advantage as well as a disadvantage. It is advantage in that you can make a heftier profit at a lesser cost and it is a disadvantage because if your adult websites servers are located in a country with strong pornography laws – you’re bound to cross that legal line sooner or later.
Most adult websites provide content that they have outsourced from companies who produce the main content. If that company violates an age law showing people under a certain age engaging in pornographic activity and you showcase this content on your website—well you and your company will be held liable.
The smartest thing to do to avoid this scenario is to move your business to an offshore jurisdiction that has littler or no known pornography related laws that will leave you subject to a lawsuit. This way you make your profits, avoid litigation and sleep a whole lot better at night.
