    No, they haven’t done anything illegal yet. But the key word is “yet” and the admins obviously don’t want to risk it.

    If it was your ass on the line for potential prison time, I’m sure you’d have a different opinion.

      But that’s true of literally every single community. Posting copyrighted images in a pics community, copyrighted music in a little video/gif, a nazi denying the holocaust (illegal in Germany) in one little comment a hundred comments in…

      Who do you think is more likely to overstep? A community very well aware of the risks and the scrutiny they are under, full of people that are themselves aware of the risks, or some rando on some random community?

      Obviously, they are allowed to ban or not ban whatever they want, but I just think it’s a very short sighted, quickfire decision.

      Why stop there, why not defedrate from all NSFW communities because they could post questionable content in the future?

      Edit : /s

          They have from some instances with questionable content but not many others without questionable content. The question is do you persecute someone because you think you would be badly affected if they commit a crime in the future, even though they haven’t so far and doesn’t seem to be on the path to either?
