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.
If you or your hosting provider are subpoenaed for any reason (which, if you are a public instance, could happen at ANY TIME) and they find such imagery, you are opening yourself to prison time.
18 U.S.C. ยง 2252 provides for harsh penalties for dissemination of child pornography: 15 to 30 years and an unlimited fine. State laws usually mandate anyone convicted be registered as a sex offender.
This is no joke. People have gone to jail for this for less.
Hi all, I just opened a bunch of new issues on our GH discussions repo, including questions about:
- Policy on fake accounts
- Internal search service
- "Ambassador" bots to fix the followbot problem
If you have a chance, take a look! I'd appreciate the feedback. ๐
