I find that news report to be pretty uncompelling. They are using lots of weasel wording to make it sound like they have evidence of widespread jailbait, bestiality, and incest (a non-issue between two consenting adults), when really they have nothing. They have "leaked documents" suggesting that accounts posting illegal material are warned instead of shut down immediately, and then they give third hand testimony of examples of illegal content moderators have seen. Notice that there is no attempt to quantify the amount of illegal content. But here we are, trembling in our boots about it.
> Christof - not his real name - says on some days, he has viewed up to 2,000 photos and videos looking for content prohibited by the site. He uses lists of keywords to search within bios, posts and private messages between creators and their subscribers.
> He says he has found illegal and extreme content in videos - including bestiality involving dogs and the use of spy cams, guns, knives and drugs. Some material is not actively searched for by moderators as frequently as he believes it should be, says Christof, despite being banned under the platform's terms of service.
Oh! Well if Cristof thinks they aren't doing enough I guess they must be shut down!
