No company, ever, is going to accept being forced to sell their services to a customer who will use it for obnoxiously illegal purposes. No government is ever going to mandate the use of resources for illegal purposes.

At least Reddit actually bans doxing. Can your beloved kiwifarms say the same?

One thing does not logically lead to another. What an unreasonable argument. I could say the same thing about the thousands of malware and phish websites that are taken down every day.

Kiwifarms isn't the first website ever to be taken down. Taking it down won't cause one bit of harm to legitimate websites. It's not that important. Don't worry.

The EFF is arguing that companies should lose their right to withdraw service due to TOS violation, unless the government says it's ok. This is as anti-freedom as it gets. What is wrong with them

The EFF is arguing here that companies should not take anything down and instead rely on the government to dictate what shouldn't be allowed. This is absolutely ridiculous. Imagine being such a free speech advocate that you say somethi

Kiwifarms is breaking a lot of harassment and stalking laws.

It's because the police have really failed to enforce existing laws that people have to resort to leaning on ISPs and payment processors to do it.

From the article, the EFF explicitly calls out the government for failing to enforce existing laws which would have shut down Kiwifarms >That’s what must happen here. The cops and the courts should be working to protect the victims of KF

Now imagine if HN admins created a section explicitly purposed for posting Joe Biden's personal family information and stalking his family. That's what Kiwifarms actually is towards its victims. Go look at the front page of the si

The owner shed his Section 230 protections when he made posts directly involved in harassment of his victims that he has a personal beef with. Even the EFF's article says the site is full of crime and called on the cops to prosecute. T

You think the companies they do business with should be forced against their will to carry their hateful communications?

You think hosting a website is a right?

A number of kiwifarms victims are guilty engaging in speech that the Kiwifarms users disagreed with. So Kiwifarms users launched criminal harassment campaigns and used the forum to coordinate sharing the personal information of these victim

The operator of the forum has made harassing statements himself, and he has already lost his section 230 protections. The first lawsuit or prosecution that comes his way will take this into account.

The content on the kiwifarms site includes private people's home addresses and highly personal intimidating details that have no reason to be posted except for intimidation. The content violates existing criminal and civil laws and has

You're describing a victimless situation which is substantially different from the matter at hand.

I wouldn't have had to say anything if the above poster disclosed his commercial interest in promoting that particular skewed viewpoint.

You host death threats and leaked PII, and the forum owner explicitly encourages his followers to harass specific people he has a personal grudge against. He names entire sections of his forums after his victims and encourages people to pos

They should pay a penalty if they do this to someone domestically too. It's shitty.

What do you expect ISP's to do to prevent DDoS? Intercept and monitor their customer's traffic?

I get the "Free Ross" campaigners are trying to persuade us, and I think his parents are largely behind it which I sympathize with, but the manner in which they gloss over FIVE ATTEMPTED MURDERS goes beyond mere bias. Keep Ross In
