The state of Tumblr and Twitter

Posted by KomissarbAv - December 11th, 2018


I'm hearing plenty of rumors that Tumblr was just the start and that Twitter and other western social media sites are cracking down on pornography because of some bills that were passed in the US. SESTA and FOSTA, I think.

Funny how these laws got passed a year ago, considering every time one of these big bad bills popped up, you've got every last person and their grandparents going apeshit about these bills, and urging you to pester government officials and sign a petition and yadda yadda yadda. And then once everything dies down and goes quiet for like a week, and then another big bad bill pops up and the same thing happens all over again, for like five or six years straight.

So there's also a bit of talk that Apple's got their hand in how these social media sites work and they're deciding that niggas are no longer allowed to be horny on main. Here's to hoping that places like DeviantArt, Inkbunny, Newgrounds, etc. are unaffected.

In a sense this whole ordeal is slightly comfy. It's like having your house burned down and moving back to the old countryside cottage you lived in as a kid. Things have changed while you were gone, but it feels right at home.

I can feel you on that last paragraph too.

Maybe it's for the best. I mean, Tumblr could get really nasty if you entered certain keywords. Lots of pedophiles and freaks are crawling out of there now onto places like Twitter.
