Craigslist Censors Adult Services Section

The classified advertisement website Craigslist announced Saturday it would censor its ads for adult services.

The move came after a group of 17 attorneys general sent a letter to the Craigslist management ordering it to take down its adult services section. Now the website shows a black "censored" bar over the space once occupied by "adult services."

Susan MacTavish Best, who handles press inquiries for Craigslist, told CNN the company supports the AGs' "desire to end trafficking in children and women through the Internet or by any other means." She added that the company will work closely with them, experts at nonprofit organizations, and law enforcement.
