I was told 15 minutes ago that Craigslists Canada site was shut down. I've looked around as much as I can for news on this, and the few articles I do find are pretty bland.

You can see the notice here: craigslist | about > domain tou violation

I've read the notice half a dozen times now, and I am so confused.

Why would they take down their own site for a TOU violation, and threaten to sue themselves?!

I'm assuming there is more to this than I am seeing, such as Craigslist sites outside of the US being something like a franchise, but I don't know.

Going through their Wiki entry, I don't see anything about a division of business like this, or any info on how they operate outside of the US.

So now I'm racking my brain... Does anyone have any ideas as to what the fuck is going on?
 


It sounds like their spam filter had triggered something globally. Probably just a mistake.
Craigslist does not permit automated posting or the employment of posting agents (software or human).

God bless America. We get to keep Craigslist, but as a downside we lose Full Tilt and Pokerstars. You guys get to keep online gambling, but lose out on Craigslist and insinuated prostitution.
