> You're claiming that everyone is legally being forced into ceasing distribution of pornography. Clearly this isn't happening. It's only Tumblr that is doing this, suspiciously soon after being acquired Tumblr was acquired over five years ago. But moreover, it's not only Tumblr that has banned pornography or nudity, drastically altered their content policies, or even shut down altogether in the last twelve months since SESTA passed. They happen to be one of the biggest, but I have literally lost track of how many other sites have responded in a similarly drastic way. SESTA includes incredibly onerous penalties, including jail time, for even accidental noncompliance. On the other hand, there is no legal penalty for being overly cautious. So unsurprisingly, most websites choose the less risky and scary option.
