LINKS to prohibited content

Aug 09, 2007 12:33

I know that this is one of the major unanswered questions, and there's been some speculation about some (unclear) answers from someone in the lj_biz post. Well, as soon as the post went up and I saw that there wasn't an answer, I sent in a support request with the exact wording from the open letter:

Is posting a link to prohibited content that is ( Read more... )

Okay, whoever wrote that? Needs to get a fucking clue.

Someone could post a link to "OMG you guys, I found this GROSS ASS PEDO SITE, check it out" in, say, cf_hardcore. You click it, and it goes to a forum for pedos, all of whom talk about their penchant for oooo, seven year old flesh (to borrow a phrase from our BEST friend Abe). That's against LJ's ToS, as Abe's clearly stated AND as they haven't stated cealry that they don't want any pedophiles using their service for blogging, even if the blogging's not about hunting/grooming kids (i.e., LiveJournal has implied it with the terminations, but they haven't come out and said "We don't want pedophiles to blog here, period."). That comment that you received pretty much says that cf_hardcore could be terminated on SPOT (considering the rash actions LJ has taken with the pedo journals and the fanartists) if someone reported the "link".

And that, my friends, is fucking RETARDED. VERY, VERY RETARDED.

If people can't say, "Hey, check out this creepy trainwreck of a site, peeps!" and link to "prohibited content", then what the bloody fuck is left to talk about, besides ourselves? Jesus Christ, LJ...smarten up and STOP. FOR THE LOVE OF G-D, STOP. TALKING. OUT. OF. YOUR. ASSES.

P.S. The example I gave is a very real example. Someone did, in her horror, link to a sickening "girl love" forum. We're not monsters over there, some of us DO care for the welfare of children, and we gawk/revile/get pissed off at sites like that. So what the fuck, LJ...this is so immensely STUPID it's not even funny anymore.

Actually, since Strikethrough it ceased being funny. It's just saddening and pathetic.

Ugh, I remember that site! I was so freaked out by it that I didn't even dare click on the actual forum!

One can argue that it's doing a public service to draw people's attention to freak sites. I would be a much less wise net user if it wasn't for GAFF and various LJ users' "check this out ew!" posts.
