Given the revelations about recent slavery practices in the Uk where 24 men were discovered malnourished and kept in horse boxes dog kennels and grubby mobile homes, are You concerned that Your site will be discovered by the authorities and that You could be arrested on servitude or slavery charges. Simple as are You concerned that someone in the community will blow the whistle on You?

kevin, first off I want to say that I am glad that those poor souls were rescued...and I hope that the police are vigilant to arrest those who are exploiting non-consensual slaves.
Do I think they are likely to over react and go after BDSMers? Ah...nope.
Back to your questions. No, I don't have a site. If you are referring to this site I enjoy spending time at...I don't see the stables and kennels and slaves chained to basement walls. [;)] Also, this place is not a secret, and I am sure many of us are tested in subtle ways by other users to see if we are predators; I know I have been part of a study more than once, and several times over the years I have been contacted by people who questioned whether I was into using legal loopholes to enslave someone...I'm not, so it was a short conversation. All of this is just part of being online, so I deal with it.
Am I concerned that someone in the community will blow the whistle on me? For owning one male sub? (Who is totally besotted with me and begs me to hit him harder...? And yes, sometimes I will grin widely and refuse.) [:D]
There are no financial transactions involved. When we walk around together in public we get smiles because we are always tethered by some physical contact of sorts, in a sappy sort of way and not in the "Get a room, will ya!" sort of way. To the world, he is my boyfriend and we are vanilla dating; what we do in private is OUR business.
I would think the media would find it comical if someone "blew the whistle on me"...to dig up info and learn that my sub has his own home, has made us a cross and other bondage furniture, and is building us a soundproof dungeon in his home to play in so that he can safely get noisy if he wants to. He visits all sorts of friends as well as family...and they all like me. My boy would defend me and our relationship to his last breath.
To recap, his family knows he is is owned and into BDSM. My family and friends also know that I own him and that we are into BDSM.
Yes, he is asked what the big chain with the heart padlock around his neck means. He explains, also telling them that he doesn't own the keys; I do.
