I hope they have standing to file.  That's the first thing that gets cases like this thrown out.

I think the strongest standing will be the CMT who had his advertising venue (CL) ripped from under him. Of course the Feds could argue that was a CL decision and not a direct result of FOSTA (right?).

The other plaintiffs merely perceive threats to their business, but have not (yet) been damaged. I think they will need to push the envelope and get charged with a crime or sued in civil court (*) before they have grounds for a Constitutional challenge.

(*) Remember, FOSTA allows prosecutors to use civil suits where they can’t justify criminal charges.
