BROOMFIELD, Colo. — Eldorado is now exclusively shipping Odile butt plug dilators Discovery and Absolute to the North American market.

“Odile believes that regular anal dilation practice is the key for pleasurable anal sex, as it allows the body to experience penetration without firing pain signals,” noted a rep. “Odile conducted extensive research with medical professionals, and their results show gradual, safe and precise anal dilation is best achieved with a single device.”

“Both their Absolute and Discovery butt plug dilators are designed to bring a whole new experience to anal pleasure by providing unique and effective anal dilation,” the rep continued. “Their unique mechanism allows the girth shaft of our products to increase millimeter by millimeter, from 1″ to 1.5″ in diameter, allowing gentle anal dilation at the consumer’s own pace.”

Odile founder and CEO Benjamin J noted the company is “proud to collaborate with Eldorado on an exclusive basis for the North American market.”

“We really wanted to work with a team that shared our values and had the relationships to support us in making a strong entry into the market,” he said. “Eldorado is without a doubt one of the most recognized distributors in the industry and we are honored to be a part of their exclusive product portfolio.”

Derek DalPiaz, Eldorado director of sales and marketing, added, “Odile is a wonderful addition to the Eldorado portfolio. Their products provide the efficiency of dilators mixed with the comfort of butt plugs, for a truly unique experience.”

HOUSTON, Texas — Three Texas judges for the state’s Fourteenth Court of Appeals denied yesterday Facebook’s appeal to dismiss a lawsuit in which lawyers for anonymous plaintiffs argued the platform “facilitated the sex trafficking of minors” and is not protected from liability by Section 230.

Facebook had asked the intermediate appellate panel to decide if Texas had jurisdiction over the case, which challenged longstanding Section 230 liability protections for user-generated content.

Section 230 is universally considered by digital rights advocates “the First Amendment of the internet” and a crucial bulwark against state and corporate censorship of controversial speech, including sexual expression.

The panel denied the bid, and sided with the plaintiffs who — largely based on the controversial FOSTA-SESTA carveout of Section 230— allege “the social media company provided an unrestricted platform for predators to exploit and extort children and recruit them into the sex trade,” legal news site Law360 reported.

The Texas Supreme Court had ruled in June 2021 that Facebook was protected from several of the claims by Section 230 immunity from liability, but also decided that some of the claims made by the Jane Does — in synchronicity with the arguments of legal staff at powerful anti-porn lobbies like NCOSE — could proceed “under a Texas statute that allows for a claim against anyone who ‘intentionally or knowingly benefits from participating in a venture that traffics another person,’” Law360 explained.

The appellate panel yesterday ruled that since Facebook “does substantial business in Texas through the marketing of its social networking website in the state, profits from the sale of Texas users’ personal data and directly advertises its products to millions of Texas users,” the lawsuit can moved forward in the state.

“Texas has a strong interest in protecting citizens of the state by exercising jurisdiction over these types of claims,” Chief Justice Tracy Christopher and Justices Charles A. Spain and Margaret “Meg” Poissant declared.

Christopher is a Republican and Spain and Poissant are Democrats.

These “user-generated content” cases have become increasingly politicized since the signing of FOSTA-SESTA, especially after former President Donald Trump took up the crusade to dismantle Section 230 protections.

When discussing one of the cases against the platform in February 2021, Texas Supreme Court Justice Debra Lehrmann — a Republican appointed by Governor Rick Perry in 2010 and then twice reelected — took aim at Section 230 protections when questioning Facebook’s immunity because it may have “failed to warn users of the dangers of sex trafficking.”

The case is Facebook Inc. v. Jane Doe, case number 14-19-00854-CV, in the Texas Court of Appeals for the Fourteenth District.

LOS ANGELES — Canned water brand Liquid Death will begin rolling out its “Don’t F*** the Planet” promo campaign today, taking a cheeky approach to the dangers of single-use plastic with a PSA starring Cherie DeVille under the direction of Joanna Angel.

The spot, which debuts this morning, also features adult industry vets such as Mike Quasar.

A rep noted Liquid Death is a fast-growing canned water brand focused on health and sustainability that has partnered recently with such adult stars as Chloe Cherry, Lisa Ann and Angel herself, among others.

Angel also serves as New York Lifestyle Marketing Representative at Liquid Death.

“The ‘Don’t F*** the Planet’ campaign really gave me the opportunity and freedom to tap into some of my creative skills as a director,” she told XBIZ. “This might not come as much of a surprise to anyone who follows the brand, but Liquid Death was completely on board with me bringing on my usual production team — a group of adult industry veterans — to oversee the shoot and make sure we kept the campaign as authentic as possible.”

“We’re excited to do something new and share our talents with new and familiar audiences,” she added.

The spot starring DeVille will be featured across the company’s social media channels and connected TV platforms

“Plastic pollution is an issue that affects every single person on Earth, no matter who you are,” the rep said. “The only way to stop plastic pollution is to get everyone to move away from single use plastics to more sustainable choices. To get the message out, Liquid Death needed someone everyone would recognize to send that message: the ‘internet’s stepmom,’ Cherie DeVille.”

Additionally, as part of the #DeathToPlastic initiative, Liquid Death will donate a portion of its proceeds to charitable causes and nonprofits that are providing safe drinking water to communities around the world where it is not immediately available and cleaning up plastic garbage out of the ocean.
