I think it may be that people feel someone is trying to deflect away from a crime by being overly pedantic. When someone commits a crime and people scream "pedophile!", it is really strange when someone shows up and say that pedop

Disgruntled employees can be risky. Like Stamos, and the way the NYTimes took Facebook's efforts to tackle abuse in 2019 as evidence of their previous "indifference". If anything you do can be twisted against you, why bother?

Might this have something to do with people using Cloudflare to share child pornography a couple of years ago? They've been talking about it again recently.

In my opinion, the biggest problems with sources is that journalists often fail to provide them. They will often make sure assertions without named sources to back them up. And they will fail to provide citations and links when the source i

Is it really that obvious? If a company gets a bad rap for being insecure, is it rational to go for them? Sure, you should do your due diligence, when picking any solution, but it's certainly a factor which could discount someone from

Contextual accountability is hard. Real names / pseudonyms tend to be sweeping across a service, particularly large goliaths like Facebook where you could do things like political activism in a group. You either get more exposure than

If we had a law on the books that PornHub must verify the identities of all the people uploaded in their videos, you might have a point about them knowingly abetting a crime. But, there isn't such a law, as far as I know. And Visa

I don't think it would make much of a difference. Are there pedophiles who publicly post controversial views without the cover of anonymity? How would you even know what their views are?

The GDPR is good in spirit as it forces a certain standard of privacy, but it is extremely vague (which means countries can effectively neuter it, or it could be over-enforced), and there is an extraterritorial component which set the prece

Let us say the internet was created 50 years ago, and Facebook decided to eradicate all homosexual content. Perhaps, not even maliciously but as collateral damage for another goal. Would it have been as shocking or obviously bad?

Posing as an "anti-pedophile" would be a good way for a pedophile to deflect attention away from themselves, or as a way for them to project the negative feelings they receive outwards. There have been cases where child rights adv
