On September 24, 2018, the U.S. District Court of the District of Columbia dismissed a case challenging the constitutionality of the Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA). FOSTA, which President Trump signed into law on April 11, 2018, aimed to reduce sex trafficking by increasing liability for internet intermediaries that facilitated commercial sexual encounters (both consensual and non-consensual).
