its the right thing on a number of levels.
1. it gets the attorneys general off your back.
2. it is good pr
3. it will reduce spam on that section of the site which will result in better ads for customers
4. it sets a standard that says "we wont allow a wild west freak show on our site"
agree, dont agree, whatever... the freak show will continue in other parts of the interweb. just not on cl in the manner that it has in the past. and thats the win - because cl is the main hub for people looking for all kinds of stuff - freak show or otherwise. you cant really have your cake and eat it too.
- randallsquared 17y agoYour 3 is bizarre. It removes spam on a section of the site by removing the section. No customers are helped by this; it's straight cost-cutting (which is the other side of trying to be profitable, of course).
- siculars 17y agoThat section is being replaced by a moderated analogue
