Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

How valuable is it?
Well, potentially a lot, specially when sold for crossing data with other sources. I worked in a place willing to lose millions of dollars a month, without profit, hoping that eventually in 1 or 2 years the few bits of personal info they were capturing could be sold.
Also worked on another place that aggregated all public info available for everyone and allowed with 2 clicks understand many things about a person and all their family for example.
No one knows
Very.
What are they going to do with it
It's basically your ID on the internet, at least if you're the regular person using same address everywhere.
