Maybe you're right...but I took a quick look earlier and couldn't access it so I thought we might have been out of luck too lol. Hopefully it was just my connection!
This is only happening in the states right now . Backpage did it voluntarily to reduce some of the stress that they were receiving from the government. They are continuing to fight this battle in court and should be resolving the issue soon. Backpage makes revenue mostly from sps ads so it is unlikely to happen where it is legal.. No other government is on them the way the U.S government is ; and that is because it is 100% illegal there. Whereas here in Canada we have bill c-36 on our side. When you checked it , they could have been doing maintenance. I know last night around 1:30am it was acting a bit funny but seems to be up and running just fine. no need to worry boys.
