"Felt a bit shitty to have my domain taken down over something I'm not responsible for. The content is only available through Nitter because Twitter makes it available."
He totally is responsible, the argument "i only serve it because twitter serves it" is bad in my opinion, he's still serving it, just because Twitter does it too doesn't absolve him of all responsibility
- xigoi 3y agoIf someone views child porn using Mozilla Firefox, is Mozilla responsible for it?
- KomoD 3y agoThat's not the same at all?
- Astraco 3y agoYes, it is. Nitter is just a front end for Twitter, doesn't host anything, doesn't have anything to do with what's posted on Twitter, it just shows it.
- KomoD 3y agoIt proxies it through their servers. You are connecting to Nitter, not Twitter. They are serving the content to you (the user), not Twitter.
- xigoi 3y agoAlright. If someone sends child porn to someone by physical mail, is the mail company responsible for it?
- stemlord 3y agoTwitter would be the party mailing the letter to Nitter, and Nitter is mailing it to the end user. Nitter is responsible for mailing it to the end user. It doesn't matter that they originally got it from Twitter or aliens from Uranus. The mail company is Firefox browser.
