So this turn a blind eye to a host of shady crap on their boards but Jennifer Lawrence's boobs throws the entire system into Defcon 1.

The world really does belong to the rich.

A private business doesn't have the right to control content on its site?

It's called fear of litigation, brochacho. And it's about time.

These fricking geeks need to start respecting privacy and beat off to the skanks with broken families that signed up, and were compensated for some such bullshite.

4chan is irreparably ruined by moot's response to this IMO

The existence of that site was for unfiltered content

Reddit I understand blocking it but 4chan users will start looking elsewhere IMO

I haven't been to /b/ in a long time, but this shite is disappointing.

Doesn't matter. Those leaks will be on the Internet forever and will never ever go away. The moment something is posted on the Internet, it's there forever and will never ever go away and it doesn't matter how powerful you are or what resources you have. The Internet is basically a vast universe that's the wild fricking west of the 21st century. The more they try to fight the leaks will only fuel the spread of the aforementioned content even faster and pissing off the lame arse neckbeards and making them post them more. If you believe otherwise, I don't know what to tell you.

I have a question about the semantical(?) legality of porn involving minors.

If a minor takes and possesses a lude picture of themselves is that not underage porn? Or only if solicited?

Asking for a friend?

Pretty sure if you are underage, you can have nudies of yourself. Just don't go emailing them to Billy Bob and his pervy friends in frickmycousin, Georgia.

So stupid. If they were going to ban it they should have done it a week ago not now.

There is a good discussion on Reddit about this.

They banned the fappening because it involves celebs but apparently there are other sub reddits that do the very same thing to regular peoples Photobucket accounts and it's still live.

This list...

/r/sexyabortions
/r/rapingwomen
/r/killingwomen
/r/beatingwomen2
/r/picsofdeadkids
/r/ladybonersgonegory
/r/HurtingAnimals
/r/BurningKids
/r/CuteFemaleCorpses

...are all sub reddits that are apparently OK but not Fappening subs.

Because burning kids and gory boners don't make $10 million for six weeks of work and can't afford fancy lawyers, copyright trolls, and the like.

ETA: That's the whole point of /photoplunder, though they say it's okay because the uploaders should have known to lock their accounts.
