Seven Dirty Words You Can’t Say On TV, Radio, and now TUMBLR.
Now would probably be a good time to wish the Jewish community a Happy Hanukkah despite the Tumblr @staff making it one of the worst Hanukkahs in recent years just so they can get back on the App Store. Well, we’re not gonna let that happen.
Tumblr has made and official statement on twitter about what’s going on:
We’re committed to helping build a safe online environment for all users, and we have a zero tolerance policy when it comes to media featuring child sexual exploitation and abuse. As this is an industry-wide problem, we work collaboratively with our industry peers and partners like NCMEC to actively monitor content uploaded to the platform. Every image uploaded to Tumblr is scanned against an industry database of known child sexual abuse material, and images that are detected never reach the platform. A routine audit discovered content on our platform that had not yet been included in the industry database. We immediately removed this content. Content safeguards are a challenging aspect of operating scaled platforms. We’re continuously assessing further steps we can take to improve and there is no higher priority for our team.
Please please please, for the love of everything, stop spreading fear in our community. They are not purging your blogs for having NSFW content. If your blog gets deleted and you didn’t have any of the above mentioned content, or something that could be percived as such, then please contact Tumblr Support to regain your blog. They can be contacted via the form here.
Please reblog so people stop spreading false information and cause unnecesary fear.

Uh…yeah…they did purge because of that.
May as well and say it, but I do follow a few NSFW art blogs. And several of them which I did follow and that followed Geocities–I mean Tumblr’s rules still got axed even though they didn’t have what I call “Ajit Pai” content.
No matter. These legitimate folks are moving to other communities.
The only “CP” that should be on this site should be Cartoon Porn, which the Internet has plenty of apparently…or Charlie Parker…Computer Programmers…Cyberpunk…Cheap Ponies?
they….. they made no nut november legally binding….
Oddly enough since the made the safe mode mandatory, I have received two pieces of unsolicited spam for sites that solicit “meeting horney girls in your area”, and have seen at least eight different reblog encouraging people to visit a website I wouldn’t touch with a ten foot poll…but you know looking up certain niches that aren’t Ajit Pai shit makes everybody Ajit Pai people.
