Hello all! 

    I am new at this place and an escort on hiatus from the United States.  I know this board is mostly for folks across the pond but, I need advice and to notify people of something tragic for anyone who got tested in the states through a clinic called "AIM" or "Adult Industry Medical", a clinic for sex workers of all types to get tested and support.  It was open for 13 years.

  It seems that someone stole the entire medical file and posted all the names on a site called pornwikileaks.com.  Any person who got tested there from Jenna Jameson to little me has their real full name, stage name, address, and even some had pictures of their own children and parents home address on the site, too.  The FBI  has closed down the site but, no one is being thrown in jail or persued.  The info till shows up in searches and is cached even with the site shut down.  The "unknown" creator is still threatening that the site will be put back up!

What do I do?  I am going to college to work with children.  I worry that having this information out will not only harm my future, but since this site was open for a year...who knows what clients knew of it and now know who I am....   I tried contacting Google but, no response and if someone Googles my real name it pops up straight away!

Sorry my first post is negative but, I need advice...I just do not understand how 13,000 sex workers can be affected by this and no one is fighting it more!

Thanks cat!

  I know its late over there, but I wanted to post it straight away because, I have known some girls that travel here.  Plus there are not much support forums for WGs in the states.

Hi Robyn,

I read that story somewhere and thought that whoever did that was really fucked up. For every Jenna Jameson and Sasha Grey working today, there are thousands of other people who have worked in porn who are now teachers, lawyers, doctors, housewives?people with a vested interest in keeping their past concealed by a pseudonym. But I would think  all the actors/actresses involved would unite and sue the hell out of this "Donny Long" guy, why hasn't this happened?  (Just curious)

The only thing I can think of is a change of name. As far as I know the US is the only place were you can have your name changed. Or set up a money fund with all the actors  involved and pay some  proffesional IT guys to delete the cache from google. Sorry if I'm not very helpful but it's the only solutions I can see.

"freedom of speech?"  Don't think so. This is confidential private data stolen from a clinic so I'm not sure the freedom of speech applies here but I guess you've talked with a lawyer and done your own research. On the other hand the FBI is too concerned right now with their own wikileaks outings so I can see why a "bunch of porn actors" getting outed are not on their top priority list... I know it's unfair but unfortunately it's the way things work in this world. Try hiring a pro techie guy and having delete the cache (I did it and it worked for me). I doubt it would get published online again because nobody wants to mess with the FBI.

Hi Robyn,

I read about this site a while back. How long has the website been down for? I ask because after time the cached copy will disappear from the search results. It definitely won't be there forever.

There is an option to request an urgent removal of a page from the cache: http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=164734&&hl=en - the caveat from Google is that the webmaster has first taken the offending page down, which you say he has done.

You'll need to create a Google webmaster tools acount to gain access to the URL removal tool.

Also, don't forget to do the same checks in Bing and Yahoo and follow their procedures if you find your info listed in the cache. Again though, it will disappear once the website is next crawled.

Good luck. If you need any help, don't hesitate to send me more info via PM.

I need to add a response to Ana30 who said it's not possible to remove a page from Google's cache without being the owner. It is, according to the Google page I linked to. It says:

If you don't own the site, your first step is to contact the site's webmaster and request that the content is removed. (Note that depending on the type of removal?see below?some other changes may also be necessary). Once the changes have been made, you can request removal of the content from appearing as a cache copy or snippet in Google's search results by using the public URL removal tool. (It bears repeating: The site owner?whether it's you or somebody else?must have first made the required changes to the site, or this process will not work to remove the content from search results.) The site owner will be able to see your removal request in their own Webmaster Tools account.

I did a quick search and the public URL removal tool is apparently here: https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/removals

So they say it can be done and I would definitely try it.

Can anyone copy and paste this advice into the thread itself so Robyn sees it?

Thanks,

Suzy
