But it’s for the children!!
^Heavy sarcasm^
I hope this helps other victims get proper resolution.
Everyone here is cheering this on but the Fediverse is next. If a kid here offs themselves or gets trafficked, that's all she wrote.
As a regular of the old-internet, including hellsites such as VampireFreaks dot com, I promise it takes more than that for the government to care. VF was the site of two? vampire-inspired teenage murderers and a few other horrors, including one of the admins defending the presence of a convicted pedophile who was banned from using Facebook.
As for why, my assumption is that you cannot fine an entity which is barely profitable. I mean you can but you won't get anything, so they're unlikely to bother.
I don't think that will save it. I'm barely profitable and cops still give me tickets. Times are changing. Governments are coming down hard on the Internet. OSA in the UK forced Urban Dead to shut down. I would have to think admins running instances are feeling a little nervous.
UK is a very different story
