So if I post something about sex and prostitution research in HN then HN is liable for some criminal violation if they don't censor it? What kind of insanity is that? Would that not open the possibility of destroying an online site with comments (or even something like Medium) deliberately by posting now "illegal" things?
- mattnewton 9y agoThe cynic in me thinks this is exactly the intention. Shut down any site you don’t like, with the argument being literally “think of the children”
- gowld 9y agoIf you find clients for your pimping business via HN, with HN's knowing consent, then yes, it's a criminal violation.

- hlieberman 9y agoKnowing consent that it's used for prostitution isn't required under FOSTA/SESTA. Merely knowing consent that there's facilitation.
