The Girls Next Door
5280.comTook me a while to realize: you have to scroll down to see the content.
In Chrome, it doesn't scroll. It appears to be only the image and the headline. (Edit: nope, nor Firefox either, for me)
It does scroll in Chrome. However, you have to scroll for a bit before anything beyond the scrollbar changes.
It scrolls in Safari (7.0.2), although you have to scroll quite a bit before you actually start seeing the content below the image(s). In addition, in my browser window of size 1024 × 669 pixels, the text in text-right.png¹ is cut off from the author down and is impossible to read since scrolling doesn’t move the image.

Wow... the only comments are about the scrolling...
I'm quite interested in the topic of modern day slavery and sex trafficking. The article was made frustratingly difficult to read.
It seems to be in fashion to have similar style webpages these days. I don't like them. I assume they are designed for mobile.
Eh, it's not great on mobile either. It took me a while to realize as well.
Slavery in America is something that really needs to be discussed openly and in free society. People believing that slavery doesn't/can't exist in their modern world really need to be exposed to the truth: there is more slavery now than there ever was.
When you say there's more slavery now than there ever was I can't tell whether you're exaggerating or know something that I don't. As far as America goes, it seems like a stark difference between now and 150 years ago when 13% of the population consisted of slaves [0]. If you're referring to third world countries that's more understandable due to the number of young workers building products for wealthier countries.

It is estimated that the US has 60,000 slaves today, per definition. So no, its not over yet in the US.
However, world-wide: approximately 30 million people fit the definition of enslaved humans.
One thing, though: the US Prison System is considered by some to be industrialized slavery. If this is included in the statistics, the US enslavement index goes way, way up.
The nature of slavery as well. In ancient times they were more like mistreated servants. Now it's far worse
i disagree because slavery in "ancient times" came in all shapes and sizes.
