chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world â¨2⊠â¨days⊠agoWhich is exactly why I said TOS and not the US laws. I donât really agree with the laws here either, because they create a safe harbor for illegal ends, but I understand that it is a lot easier, and arguably better, to self-police the content. That is what Patreon is doing. They view it as a violation of their TOS to generate revenue on a site that knowingly and willingly hosts CSAM. Iâm with Patreon on this one. This wasnât the first offence, and there is no way that the person that runs the site doesnât know that material is on there. Pleading ignorant isnât going to work. Running anonymous file hosting, no matter how good your intentions, is going to bring out the worst of the internet, guaranteed. If you can somehow get around that logic, youâve got a bright future with the NRA.
