Does the date when this will happen get announced in advance? ScratchMarshall --( talk) 23:10, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
The neutrality of the article seems quite questionable to me. For one, the “criticism” section is much, much longer and more detailed than the “support” section, despite the bill’s many supporters. Furthermore, the “response” section essentially states that the critics were right about the bill, even though it acknowledges that such evidence is only anecdotal. It’s my opinion that the article clearly takes a stance a opposing the bill and thus does not fit the site’s neutrality guidelines. Jogarz1921 ( talk) 23:41, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
The criticism section does not include any information about the massive criticism of the bill by those in the sex industry. Sex workers have argued that the bill will do nothing to reduce trafficking and in fact would make it harder to find traffickers all while putting them at significantly greater risk due to loss of advertising venues and verification sites. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.62.109.131 ( talk) 01:01, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
It was proposed in this section that

Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act → FOSTA-SESTA – It is most commonly known as FOSTA-SESTA, not Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act (SESTA). Moreover, the actual bill when passed was called "Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act" (FOSTA) but the media and most people referred to it as "FOSTA-SESTA".
