Defederate lemmynsfw.com? (self.lemmyworld)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by CosmicGiraffe to c/lemmyworld
 

The admins on lemmynsfw.com have decided to allow "non-IRL loli", i.e. drawn porn involving children/teenagers. (Post: https://lemmynsfw.com/post/29633).

Irrelevant of the moral issues that this poses, such content is illegal in many countries (e.g the UK). Continuing to federate with lemmynsfw.com will put users at risk of significant legal repercussions.

Please would the admins consider defederating unless lemmynsfw change their policy.

UPDATE: The lemmynsfw admins posted an clarification here: https://lemmynsfw.com/post/29826. My original argument for defederating doesn't stand any more.

please correct me if Iโ€™m wrong, but I think this will even block a video on a normal feed with a lot of swearing if someone marks it NSFW.

People sometimes mark nsfw to be silly for a crocheted penis or a cat in a funny position. I don't want to miss those.

That is true, yet it's also misuse of the NSFW button. It's specifically for depictions that are adult, not for spoken words that are adult.

And yet, those in-office users may not want an unexpected burst of swearing emanating from their devices.

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No problem with that, but that's not what the NSFW switch is for.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Iโ€™m not disputing that, just making a note. Iโ€™m not in an office currently, but I do try to be considerate.
