Having now reviewed your documents on Github, I don't find anything that specifies policies on how questionable content is to be dealt with (in line with your comment of just defining minimum required standards for users). I'm interested in the internal polices site admins should take when dealing with questionably legal content.
- buro9 11y agoAll of the sites, and all of the communities we host, we advise to strongly follow legal requirements only. They can stray from that if they wish, in which case as the platform owners I can delete content as I see fit in accordance with the law if they do not do so. However if they go further than the recommended minimums of obeying the law, then we educate site admins and moderators that as soon as they exercise their personal judgement that they are opening themselves up to being held personally liable for their decisions and choices. In other words, we obey the strict definition of the law, and any correct legal demands made of us, and we refuse to remove material that someone merely finds objectionable, only doing so when it appears clear that it is in fact illegal. Questionable content is therefore left on all of the sites. But then, we don't have advertisers to deal with.
