They aren't, they are just hosting adverts and advertising is not outlawed in this country at the minute, look at the television, newspapers and online there's adverts all over, it's those who take action on the adverts and meet face to face who are breaking the law. AW have removed the facility to make escort booking, they've posted warnings and Strawberry posted this. - Yet you want them closed down because you can't control yourself and need things to be 'put out of reach'.
I know that AW are a pack of money grabbing bastards, but at least they are doing what they can to prevent face to face meetings whilst still making something. In my opinion no government would expect them to do any more.
B&Q and other hardware stores are open and I've never noticed them selling bread or any other 'essential' items.
As you state they are money grabbing bastards, they aren’t thinking about the environment or social distancing, but how they can keep the credits flowing.
Think my quote was taken out of context, as I was responding to someone who suggested the police would create fake profiles to setup sting operations.
AW are doing what they have always done, chasing money with no thought for how it comes in. That was wrong even before this started
