The day I was hoping would never come has arrived.

I have suspended pawoo.net for users posting child porn, and no admin action has been taken despite repeated requests.

I know some of you oppose suspensions, but I have to take actions to protect us.

Merely having cached images from this instance could be a legal liability in the USA. In this hostile legal climate, I would prefer to err on the side of caution.

I sincerely apologise for needing to perform this drastic step.

@Elizafox wait, they're posting child porn? I thought they were just doing hentai shit? child porn is also illegal in japan, mind you

@Elizafox You've got to be a special kind of something to see someone ban an instance for child porn and get all BUT WHAT ABOUT THE MARKETPLACE OF IDEAS

That's fucking horrible. Guess I know what the "p" in "pawoo" stands for.

@Elizafox
@chr lolicon isn't illegal in the US, although many find it disgusting. if you're talking about photographic CP, however, then freaking out is warranted.
@Elizafox @chr @sonya it's maybe less an issue for the Americans, but it is illegal in Sweden & Germany & France. Not sure if it's EU-wide.
