Which is exactly why I said TOS and not the US laws. I don’t 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. I’m with Patreon on this one. This wasn’t the first offence, and there is no way that the person that runs the site doesn’t know that material is on there. Pleading ignorant isn’t 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, you’ve got a bright future with the NRA.
