I 100% agree Cheyenne and I don't think the business has changed that much, not to the degree that we need to start asking potential clients for their ID or Linkedin profiles. There are probably the same percentage of bad apples out there that there always was, which is fortunately very few. And as you said, people are free to screen however they like if they are willing to live with the results. I know a Domme that insists every new client meet her in public for a cafe date prior to scheduling a session. She is happy with a few sessions a month and that works for her. If I tried to do that I would be in cafe dates all the time and the rent wouldn't get paid ;-)

BTW, the two most unstable clients I ever dealt with had no problem revealing their real name, work details, etc.
